Matthew 28:11-15 - The Guards Report The Body Stolen
11 And [while] they were going, behold, some of the guard of soldiers went into the city [and] reported to the chief priests everything that had happened. 12 And [after they] had assembled with the elders and had taken counsel, they gave a rather large sum of money to the soldiers, 13 telling [them], "Say 'His disciples came during the night [and] stole him [while] we were sleeping.' 14 And if this [matter] is heard before the governor, we will satisfy him and {keep you out of trouble}." 15 So they took the money [and] did as they were told, and spread abroad this report among the Jews until this very day.
