Mateo 28
1 Mushure meSabata, ava mambakwedza nomusi wokutanga wevhiki, Maria Magadharena nomumwe Maria vakaenda kundoona guva.
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.
2 Pakava nokudengenyeka kwenyika kukuru nokuti mutumwa waShe akabva kudenga akaenda paguva akasvikokungurutsa ibwe riya akagara pamusoro paro.
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.
3 Kuonekwa kwake kwakanga kwakaita semheni uye nguo dzake dzakanga dzakachena sechando.
And his countenance was as lightning, and his raiment as snow.
4 Varindi vakamutya kwazvo zvokuti vakadedera vakaita savanhu vafa.
And for fear of him, the guards were struck with terror, and became as dead men.
5 Mutumwa akati kuvakadzi vaya, “Musatya nokuti ndinoziva kuti muri kutsvaka Jesu uyo akarovererwa pamuchinjikwa.
And the angel answering, said to the women: Fear not you; for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.
6 Haapo pano; amuka sokutaura kwaakaita. Uyai muone panzvimbo paakanga avete.
He is not here, for he is risen, as he said. Come, and see the place where the Lord was laid.
7 Zvino kurumidzai muende kundoudza vadzidzi vake kuti, ‘Amuka kubva kuvakafa uye kuti afanotungamira kuGarirea. Muchanomuona ikoko.’ Zvino ndakuudzai.”
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.
8 Saka vakadzi ava vakakurumidza kubva paguva vachitya asi vakazadzwa nomufaro, uye vakamhanya kundoudza vadzidzi vake.
And they went out quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy, running to tell his disciples.
9 Pakarepo Jesu akasangana navo, akati, “Kwaziwai.” Vakauya kwaari vakabata tsoka dzake uye vakamunamata.
And behold Jesus met them, saying: All hail. But they came up and took hold of his feet, and adored him.
10 Ipapo Jesu akati kwavari, “Musatya. Endai mundoudza hama dzangu kuti vaende kuGarirea; ikoko ndiko kwavachanondiona.”
Then Jesus said to them: Fear not. Go, tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, there they shall see me.
11 Vakadzi vaya vachiri munzira, vamwe vevarindi vakaenda muguta vakandotaurira vaprista vakuru zvose zvakanga zvaitika.
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.
12 Vaprista vakuru vakati vasangana navakuru, uye vafunga zano, vakapa varwi mari zhinji
And they being assembled together with the ancients, taking counsel, gave a great sum of money to the soldiers,
13 vakati kwavari, “Imi munofanira kutaura muchiti, ‘Vadzidzi vake vakauya usiku vakamuba isu tivete.’
Saying: Say you, His disciples came by night, and stole him away when we were asleep.
14 Kana mashoko aya akasvika munzeve dzomubati, isu tichaita kuti agutsikane uye imi musawira mudambudziko.”
And if the governor shall hear this, we will persuade him, and secure you.
15 Saka varwi vakatora mari iya vakaita sezvavakanga varayirwa. Uye shoko iri rakaparadzirwa kwazvo pakati pavaJudha kusvikira zuva ranhasi.
So they taking the money, did as they were taught: and this word was spread abroad among the Jews even unto this day.
16 Ipapo vadzidzi gumi nomumwe vakaenda kuGarirea, kugomo ravainge vaudzwa naJesu kuti vaende.
And the eleven disciples went into Galilee, unto the mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
17 Vakati vamuona, vakamunamata, asi vamwe vakakahadzika.
And seeing them they adored: but some doubted.
18 Ipapo Jesu akasvika pavari akati, “Simba rose kudenga napanyika rakapiwa kwandiri.
And Jesus coming, spoke to them, saying: All power is given to me in heaven and in earth.
19 Naizvozvo endai mudzidzise ndudzi dzose, muchivabhabhatidza muzita raBaba, neroMwanakomana neroMweya Mutsvene,
Going therefore, teach ye all nations; baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
