John 19:39-42 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

39. Nicodemus also came with about thirty kilogrammes of spices made from myrrh and aloes. This was the same Nicodemus who had visited Jesus one night.

40. The two men wrapped the body in a linen cloth, together with the spices, which was how the Jewish people buried their dead.

41. In the place where Jesus had been nailed to a cross, there was a garden with a tomb that had never been used.

42. The tomb was nearby, and since it was the time to prepare for the Sabbath, they were in a hurry to put Jesus' body there.
