Mark 15:42-45

CAB(i) 42 And now evening having come, since it was Preparation Day, which is the day before the Sabbath, 43 Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent council member, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God, coming and taking courage, he went in to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 44 And Pilate wondered if He was already dead; and having summoned the centurion, he questioned him if He had been dead long. 45 And when he found out from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.
