55. Kwaye kukho ke khona abafazi abaninzi, bekhangele bemgama, bona babemlandele uYesu kwakwelaseGalili, bemlungiselela;
56. ekwakukho phakathi kwabo uMariya waseMagadala, noMariya unina wooYakobi noYose, kwanonina woonyana bakaZebhedi.
57. Kwathi ke kwakuhlwa, kweza umntu osisityebi waseArimati, ogama linguYosefu, owayengumfundi kaYesu naye.
58. Yena lowo waya kuPilato, wacela umzimba kaYesu. Waza uPilato wathi makawunikelwe umzimba.
59. Ewuthabathile ke umzimba uYosefu, wawusongela kwilinen entle emhlophe.
60. Wawubeka kwelakhe ingcwaba elitsha, abelixhole eweni; waqengqela ilitye elikhulu emnyango wengcwaba elo, wemka.
61. Baye ke bekhona apho uMariya waseMagadala nomnye uMariya, behleli phantsi malunga nengcwaba.
62. Ke kaloku ngengomso, eliyimini esemva kwaleyo yokulungiselela, bahlanganisana ababingeleli abakhulu nabaFarisi kuPilato,
63. besithi, Nkosi, sikhumbule ukuba umlahlekisi lowa wathi esahleli, Emveni kweentsuku ezintathu, ndiya kuvuka.
64. Yitsho ngoko linqatyiswe ingcwaba, kude kube lusuku lwesithathu, hleze abafundi bakhe beze ebusuku, bambé, bathi ke ebantwini, Uvukile kwabafileyo; luze olokugqibela ulahlekiso lube lubi kunolokuqala.
65. Wathi ke uPilato kubo, Ninabo abalindi; hambani niye kunqabisa ngoko nazi ngako.
