62 The next day, which is after Friday, the high priests and the Pharisees together came to Pilate, 63 And they said to him, Our lord, we have just remembered that that deceiver used to say when he was alive, After three days I will rise again. 64 Now, therefore, command that precautions be taken at the tomb for three days. It is probable that his disciples may come and steal him at night, and then say to the people, He has risen from the dead; and the last deception will be worse than the first. 65 Pilate said to them, You have guards; go and take precautions as best you know. 66 So they went and kept a watch at the tomb, and together with the guards they sealed the stone.
