Matthew 28
1 And, late in the week, when it was on the point of dawning into the first of the week, came Mary the Magdalene, and the other Mary, to view the sepulchre.
IN the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
2 And lo! a great commotion occurred, —for, a messenger of the Lord, descending out of heaven, and coming near, had rolled away the stone, and was sitting upon it.
And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
3 Now his appearance, was, as lightning, and, his clothing, white as snow;
His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
4 and, for fear of him, they who were keeping watch were thrown into a commotion, and became as dead men.
And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
5 But the messenger, answering, said unto the women—Be not, ye, afraid! For I know that, Jesus the crucified, ye are seeking:
And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
6 He is not here, for he hath arisen, as he said. Come! see the place where he lay;
He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
7 And, quickly going, tell his disciples—He hath arisen from the dead, and lo! he is going before you into Galilee; —There, shall ye yourselves see him: Lo! I have told you.
And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.
8 And, departing quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to bring tidings unto his disciples.
And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
9 And lo! Jesus, met them, saying—Joy to you! And, they, going forward, held his feet, and worshipped him.
And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.
10 Then, Jesus saith unto them—Be not afraid! Go your way, bear tidings unto my brethren, that they may depart into Galilee; and, there, shall they themselves see me.
Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.
11 Now as they were, going, lo! certain of the guard, went into the city and reported unto the High-priests all the things that had come to pass;
Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done.
12 and, being gathered together with the Elders and taking counsel, sufficient pieces of silver, gave they unto the soldiers, —
And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,
13 saying—Say ye, His disciples, coming, by night, stole him, while we were sleeping;
Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept.
14 And, if this be reported unto the governor, we, will persuade him, and will make, you, free from care.
And if this come to the governor’s ears, we will persuade him, and secure you.
15 And, they, taking the pieces of silver, did as they were instructed. And this account was spread abroad among the Jews…until this [very] day.
So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.
16 And, the eleven disciples, went into Galilee, unto the mountain which, Jesus, had appointed them;
Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
17 and, seeing him, they worshipped, but, some, doubted.
And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.
18 And Jesus, coming near, spake unto them, saying—All authority, in heaven and on earth, hath been given unto me;
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19 Go ye, therefore, and disciple all the nations, Immersing them into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, —
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I myself have commanded you, And lo! I, am, with you, all the days, until the conclusion of the age. (aiōn g165)
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. (aiōn g165)
