40. Kwaye ke kukho nabafazi, bekhangele bemgama; kubo apho wayenguMariya waseMagadala, noMariya unina wooYakobi omnci nokaYose, kwanoSalome;
41. ababesithi, oko ebeba kwelaseGalili, bamlandele, bamlungiselele; nabanye abaninzi, ababenyuke naye ukuya eYerusalem.
42. Kuthe sekuhlwile, ekubeni ibiyimini yokulungiselela, oko kukuthi ngumhla ophambi kwesabatha,
43. kweza uYosefu, owaseArimati, umphakathi obekekileyo, owayebulindile naye ubukumkani bukaThixo; waya kungena ngobuganga kuPilato, wacela umzimba kaYesu.
44. Wamangaliswa ke uPilato kukuba selefile. Ebizele kuye umthetheli-khulu, wambuza ukuba uselenexesha na efile.
45. Wathi akuqonda kumthetheli-khulu lowo, wamnika uYosefu umzimba.
46. Yena, ethenge ilinen entle, wamthula; wamsongela kuyo ilinen entle; wamlalisa engcwabeni elalixholwe eweni; waqengqela ilitye emnyango wengcwaba.
47. Baye ke ooMariya waseMagadala, noMariya unina kaYose, bebona apho wayebekwe khona.
