And after these things Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly through fear of the Jews, demanded of Pilate that he might take the body of Jesus: and Pilate allowed it. He came therefore and took away the body of Jesus.
Baada ya hayo, Yosefu, mwenyeji wa Armathaya, alimwomba Pilato ruhusa ya kuuchukua mwili wa Yesu. (Yosefu alikuwa mfuasi wa Yesu, lakini kwa siri, maana aliwaogopa viongozi wa Wayahudi). Basi, Pilato akamruhusu. Hivyo Yosefu alikwenda, akauondoa mwili wa Yesu.
