Guards bribed; false witness after the rising
Gathered with the elders they took counsel to give money to the soldiers to say: His disciples stole him by night while we slept. Those who read You shall not bear false witness invited others into false witness. Glory to Christ rising. Amen.
Latin
Congregati cum senioribus consilium acceperunt ut darent pecuniam militibus, ut dicerent: Discipuli eius nocte furati sunt eum, dormientibus nobis. Qui legebant Non falsum testimonium dices alios ad falsum testimonium invitabant. Gloria Christo resurgenti. Amen.
