Matthew 28
1 Now late on sabbath, as it was the dusk of the next day after sabbath, came Mary of Magdala and the other Mary to look at the sepulchre.
Ke le ŋkeke si dze Dzudzɔgbe yome, si nye Kɔsiɖagbe ƒe fɔŋli me la, Maria Magdalatɔ kple Maria evelia woyi ɖe yɔdo la to.
2 And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of [the] Lord, descending out of heaven, came and rolled away the stone and sat upon it.
Kasia anyigba ʋuʋu sesĩe, elabena mawudɔla aɖe si tso Aƒetɔ la gbɔ la ɖi tso dziƒo va mli kpe gã la ɖa, eye wònɔ anyi ɖe edzi.
3 And his look was as lightning, and his clothing white as snow.
Mawudɔla la ƒe mo nɔ keklẽm abe dzikedzo ene, eye eƒe awuwo fu tititi abe ɖetifu ene.
4 And for fear of him the guards trembled and became as dead men.
Esi dzɔlawo kpɔe la, dzidzi ƒo wo, eye womu dze anyi heku ƒenyi.
5 And the angel answering said to the women, Fear not ye, for I know that ye seek Jesus the crucified one.
Mawudɔla la ƒo nu na nyɔnuawo gblɔ be, “Migavɔ̃ o, elabena menya be Yesu si woklã ɖe ati ŋuti la dim miele,
6 He is not here, for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
gake mele afi sia o, elabena etsi tsitre abe ale si wògblɔ da ɖi ene. Miva kpɔ afi si wokɔe mlɔ la ɖa.
7 And go quickly and say to his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and behold, he goes before you into Galilee, there shall ye see him. Behold, I have told you.
Azɔ miɖe abla miayi aɖagblɔe na eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo be etsi tsitre tso ame kukuwo dome, eye wòyina ɖe Galilea be miava kpe ye le afi ma. Mixɔ nye gbedeasi sia yi na wo.”
8 And going out quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to bring his disciples word.
Nyɔnuawo ƒu du dzo le yɔdo la to kple vɔvɔ̃ kple dzidzɔ. Esi wole dua dzi yina ɖe nusrɔ̃lawo di ge la,
9 And as they went to bring his disciples word, behold also, Jesus met them, saying, Hail! And they coming up took him by the feet, and did him homage.
Yesu va kpe wo. Edo gbe na wo be, “Ŋutifafa na mi,” eye wodze klo ɖe eƒe akɔme helé eƒe afɔwo ɖe asi, eye wosubɔe.
10 Then Jesus says to them, Fear not; go, bring word to my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there they shall see me.
Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Migavɔ̃ o! Miyi miagblɔ na nɔvinyewo be woadze mɔ enumake woayi ɖe Galilea, eye woado gom le afi ma.”
11 And as they went, behold, some of the watch went into the city, and brought word to the chief priests of all that had taken place.
Esi nyɔnuawo le gegem ɖe dua me la, asrafo siwo nɔ yɔdo la ŋuti dzɔm la ƒe ɖewo va nunɔlagãwo gbɔ hegblɔ nu si va dzɔ la na wo.
12 And having assembled with the elders, and having taken counsel, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers,
Esi nunɔlagãwo kpe ta kple dumegãwo la, wode aɖaŋu, eye wotsɔ ga home gã aɖe na asrafoawo hegblɔ be,
13 saying, Say that his disciples coming by night stole him [while] we [were] sleeping.
“Migblɔ be, ‘Eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo va le zã me, eye wofi eƒe kukua dzoe esime míenɔ alɔ̃ dɔm.’”
14 And if this should come to the hearing of the governor, we will persuade him, and save you from all anxiety.
Takpekpe la do ŋugbe be, “Nenye be mɔmefia la se nya sia la, míatsi tsitre aʋli mia ta, eye nu sia nu ayi edzi nyuie.”
15 And they took the money and did as they had been taught. And this report is current among the Jews until this day.
Ale asrafoawo xɔ ga la, eye wogblɔ nu si woɖo na wo be woagblɔ la. Nya la kaka ɖe Yudatɔwo dome gbẽe, eye woxɔe se va se ɖe egbegbe gɔ̃ hã.
16 But the eleven disciples went into Galilee to the mountain which Jesus had appointed them.
Nusrɔ̃la wuiɖekɛawo hã dze Galilea mɔ dzi, eye woyi ɖe to si dzi Yesu ɖo be yeado go wo le la dzi.
17 And when they saw him, they did homage to him: but some doubted.
Wokpe Yesu le afi sia, eye wosubɔe, ke wo dometɔ aɖewo meka ɖe edzi be Yesu ŋutɔe nye ema o.
18 And Jesus coming up spoke to them, saying, All power has been given me in heaven and upon earth.
Egblɔ na eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo be, “Wotsɔ ŋusẽ si le dziƒo kple anyigba la katã de asi nam,
19 Go [therefore] and make disciples of all the nations, baptising them to the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit;
eya ta miyi ɖawɔ amewo le dukɔ ɖe sia ɖe me woanye nye nusrɔ̃lawo; miade mawutsi ta na wo le Fofo la, Vi la kple Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la ƒe ŋkɔ me.
20 teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have enjoined you. And behold, I am with you all the days, until the completion of the age. (aiōn g165)
Miafia nu nusrɔ̃la yeye siawo be woawɔ ɖe se siwo katã mede na mi la dzi, eye kakaɖedzi nenɔ mia si ɣe sia ɣi be meli kpli mi ɣe sia ɣi va se ɖe xexea me ƒe nuwuwu.” (aiōn g165)
