Matthew 28
1 Now after [the] Sabbaths, it being dawn, toward the first [day] of the weeks, Mary the Magdalene came, and the other Mary, to see the grave,
At the end of the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came down to see the sepulcher, when lo!
2 and behold, there came a great earthquake, for a messenger of the LORD, having come down out of Heaven, having come, rolled away the stone from the door, and was sitting on it,
There had been a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord had come down from heaven, and gone and rolled away the stone, and was sitting upon it.
3 and his countenance was as lightning, and his clothing white as snow,
His appearance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow.
4 and from the fear of him the keepers shook, and they became as dead men.
The guards trembled for fear of him, and became like dead men.
5 And the messenger answering said to the women, “Do not fear, for I have known that you seek Jesus who has been crucified;
But to the women the angel said. "You need have no fear, for I know that you are seeking Jesus, the Crucified One.
6 He is not here, for He rose, as He said; come, see the place where the LORD was lying;
He is not here; for he is risen, even as he said. Come, see the place where the Master was lying!
7 and having gone quickly, say to His disciples that He rose from the dead; and behold, He goes before you to Galilee, there you will see Him; behold, I have told you.”
And go quickly and tell his disciples. ‘He is risen from the dead; he goes before you into Galilee; you will see him there.’ Remember, I have told you."
8 And having gone forth quickly from the tomb, with fear and great joy, they ran to tell His disciples;
On this they ran quickly from the sepulcher, in fear and great joy, to tell the news to his disciples.
9 and as they were going to tell His disciples, then behold, Jesus met them, saying, “Greetings!” And having come near, they laid hold of His feet, and worshiped Him.
And behold! Jesus himself met them, saying, "All hail!" And they went up to him and clasped his feet and worshiped him.
10 Then Jesus says to them, “Do not fear, go away, tell My brothers that they may go away to Galilee, and there they will see Me.”
Then Jesus said to them. "Fear not! Go tell my brothers to depart into Galilee, and they will see men there."
11 And while they are going on, behold, certain of the guard having come into the city, reported to the chief priests all the things that happened,
Now while they were on their way, some of the guard went into the city and told the high priest all that had happened.
12 and having been gathered together with the elders, having also taken counsel, they gave much money to the soldiers,
And when they had met with the elders and conferred together, they heavily bribed the soldiers and told them to say,
13 saying, “Say that His disciples having come by night, stole Him—we being asleep;
"His disciples came by night and stole him away, while we were asleep."
14 and if this is heard by the governor, we will persuade him, and you keep free from anxiety.”
"If this should reach the Governor’s ears," they said, "we will satisfy him and screen you from punishment."
15 And they, having received the money, did as they were taught, and this account was spread abroad among Jews until this day.
So the soldiers took the money, and did as they were told; and this story has been noised abroad among the Jews, and continues to this day.

But the eleven disciples went away to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
17 and having seen Him, they worshiped Him, but some wavered.
And when they saw him they worshiped him; but some doubted.
18 And having come near, Jesus spoke to them, saying, “All authority in Heaven and on earth was given to Me;
And Jesus came forward to them and spoke to them, saying. "All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.
