< Matthew 28 >
1 And in the end of the sabbath, when it began to dawn towards the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalen and the other Mary, to see the sepulchre.
Thuutha wa Thabatũ, gwatua gũkĩa mũthenya wa mbere wa kiumia, Mariamu Mũmagidali na Mariamu ũcio ũngĩ magĩthiĩ kũrora mbĩrĩra.
2 And behold there was a great earthquake. For an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and coming, rolled back the stone, and sat upon it.
Na rĩrĩ, nĩ kwagĩire na gĩthingithia kĩnene, nĩgũkorwo mũraika wa Mwathani nĩaikũrũkire oimĩte igũrũ na agĩthiĩ mbĩrĩra-inĩ, akĩgaragaria ihiga akĩrĩeheria na akĩrĩikarĩra.
3 And his countenance was as lightning, and his raiment as snow.
Oonekaga ahaana ta rũheni, na nguo ciake cierũhĩte o ta ira.
4 And for fear of him, the guards were struck with terror, and became as dead men.
Nao arangĩri acio makĩmwĩtigĩra mũno nginya makĩinaina makĩhaana, ta andũ akuũ.
5 And the angel answering, said to the women: Fear not you; for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.
Nake mũraika ũcio akĩĩra andũ-a-nja acio atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ-rĩ, tigai gwĩtigĩra, nĩgũkorwo nĩnjũũĩ atĩ nĩ Jesũ ũrĩa ũraambirwo mũtĩ-igũrũ mũracaria.
6 He is not here, for he is risen, as he said. Come, and see the place where the Lord was laid.
Ndarĩ haha, nĩariũkĩte, o ta ũrĩa oigire. Ũkai muone harĩa arakomete.
7 And going quickly, tell ye his disciples that he is risen: and behold he will go before you into Galilee; there you shall see him. Lo, I have foretold it to you.
Na rĩrĩ, thiĩi narua mũkeere arutwo ake atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩariũkĩte akoima kũrĩ arĩa akuũ, na nĩegũthiĩ Galili mbere yanyu. Kũu nĩkuo mũrĩmuona.’ Ririkanai ũguo ndaamwĩra.”
8 And they went out quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy, running to tell his disciples.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, andũ-a-nja acio makiuma mbĩrĩra-inĩ mahiũhĩte marĩ na guoya, no ningĩ maiyũrĩtwo nĩ gĩkeno, makĩhanyũka makeere arutwo ake ũhoro ũcio.
9 And behold Jesus met them, saying: All hail. But they came up and took hold of his feet, and adored him.
Na o rĩmwe Jesũ agĩtũngana nao, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩndamũgeithia.” Nao magĩthiĩ harĩ we, makĩmũnyiita nyarĩrĩ, makĩmũhooya.
10 Then Jesus said to them: Fear not. Go, tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, there they shall see me.
Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Tigai gwĩtigĩra. Thiĩ mũkeere ariũ na aarĩ a Baba mathiĩ Galili; kũu nĩkuo marĩnyona.”
11 Who when they were departed, behold some of the guards came into the city, and told the chief priests all things that had been done.
Na rĩrĩa andũ-a-nja acio maathiiaga-rĩ, arangĩri amwe a arĩa maarangĩrĩte mbĩrĩra magĩtoonya itũũra inene na makĩĩra athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene maũndũ mothe marĩa mekĩkĩte.
12 And they being assembled together with the ancients, taking counsel, gave a great sum of money to the soldiers,
Nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene magĩcemania na athuuri, magĩthugunda ũrĩa megwĩka; makĩhe thigari icio mbeeca nyingĩ,
13 Saying: Say you, His disciples came by night, and stole him away when we were asleep.
magĩciĩra atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ mũkuuga atĩrĩ, ‘Arutwo ake marookire ũtukũ maramũiya twĩ toro.’
14 And if the governor shall hear this, we will persuade him, and secure you.
Ũhoro ũyũ ũngĩkinyĩra barũthi, nĩtũkamũiguithia, na tũmũgitĩre mũtikone ũũru.”
15 So they taking the money, did as they were taught: and this word was spread abroad among the Jews even unto this day.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio thigari ikĩoya mbeeca icio, igĩĩka o ta ũrĩa cierĩtwo. Naguo ũhoro ũcio ũkĩhunjio kũrĩ Ayahudi, na nĩũhunjagio o nginya ũmũthĩ.
16 And the eleven disciples went into Galilee, unto the mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo arutwo arĩa ikũmi na ũmwe magĩthiĩ Galili, kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩrĩa Jesũ aamerĩte mathiĩ.
17 And seeing them they adored: but some doubted.
Na rĩrĩa maamuonire-rĩ, makĩmũhooya, no amwe maarĩ na nganja.
18 And Jesus coming, spoke to them, saying: All power is given to me in heaven and in earth.
Nake Jesũ agĩthiĩ kũrĩ o akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩheetwo ũhoti wothe igũrũ na gũkũ thĩ.
19 Going therefore, teach ye all nations; baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio thiĩi mũgatũme andũ a ndũrĩrĩ ciothe matuĩke arutwo akwa, mũkĩmabatithagia thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Ithe na rĩa Mũriũ na rĩa Roho Mũtheru,
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world. (aiōn )
na mũkĩmarutaga gwathĩkĩra maũndũ marĩa mothe ndĩmwathĩte. Na ti-itherũ ndĩ hamwe na inyuĩ hĩndĩ ciothe, o nginya mũthia wa mahinda maya.” (aiōn )
