Mateo 28
1 Mushure meSabata, ava mambakwedza nomusi wokutanga wevhiki, Maria Magadharena nomumwe Maria vakaenda kundoona guva.
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 Pakava nokudengenyeka kwenyika kukuru nokuti mutumwa waShe akabva kudenga akaenda paguva akasvikokungurutsa ibwe riya akagara pamusoro paro.
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 Kuonekwa kwake kwakanga kwakaita semheni uye nguo dzake dzakanga dzakachena sechando.
His appearance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow.
4 Varindi vakamutya kwazvo zvokuti vakadedera vakaita savanhu vafa.
The guards trembled for fear of him, and became like dead men.
5 Mutumwa akati kuvakadzi vaya, “Musatya nokuti ndinoziva kuti muri kutsvaka Jesu uyo akarovererwa pamuchinjikwa.
But to the women the angel said. "You need have no fear, for I know that you are seeking Jesus, the Crucified One.
6 Haapo pano; amuka sokutaura kwaakaita. Uyai muone panzvimbo paakanga avete.
He is not here; for he is risen, even as he said. Come, see the place where the Master was lying!
7 Zvino kurumidzai muende kundoudza vadzidzi vake kuti, ‘Amuka kubva kuvakafa uye kuti afanotungamira kuGarirea. Muchanomuona ikoko.’ Zvino ndakuudzai.”
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 Saka vakadzi ava vakakurumidza kubva paguva vachitya asi vakazadzwa nomufaro, uye vakamhanya kundoudza vadzidzi vake.
On this they ran quickly from the sepulcher, in fear and great joy, to tell the news to his disciples.
9 Pakarepo Jesu akasangana navo, akati, “Kwaziwai.” Vakauya kwaari vakabata tsoka dzake uye vakamunamata.
And behold! Jesus himself met them, saying, "All hail!" And they went up to him and clasped his feet and worshiped 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 brothers to depart into Galilee, and they will see men there."
11 Vakadzi vaya vachiri munzira, vamwe vevarindi vakaenda muguta vakandotaurira vaprista vakuru zvose zvakanga zvaitika.
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 Vaprista vakuru vakati vasangana navakuru, uye vafunga zano, vakapa varwi mari zhinji
And when they had met with the elders and conferred together, they heavily bribed the soldiers and told them to say,
13 vakati kwavari, “Imi munofanira kutaura muchiti, ‘Vadzidzi vake vakauya usiku vakamuba isu tivete.’
"His disciples came by night and stole him away, while we were asleep."
14 Kana mashoko aya akasvika munzeve dzomubati, isu tichaita kuti agutsikane uye imi musawira mudambudziko.”
"If this should reach the Governor’s ears," they said, "we will satisfy him and screen you from punishment."
15 Saka varwi vakatora mari iya vakaita sezvavakanga varayirwa. Uye shoko iri rakaparadzirwa kwazvo pakati pavaJudha kusvikira zuva ranhasi.
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.
16 Ipapo vadzidzi gumi nomumwe vakaenda kuGarirea, kugomo ravainge vaudzwa naJesu kuti vaende.
But the eleven disciples went away to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
17 Vakati vamuona, vakamunamata, asi vamwe vakakahadzika.
And when they saw him they worshiped him; but some doubted.
18 Ipapo Jesu akasvika pavari akati, “Simba rose kudenga napanyika rakapiwa kwandiri.
And Jesus came forward to them and spoke to them, saying. "All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.
19 Naizvozvo endai mudzidzise ndudzi dzose, muchivabhabhatidza muzita raBaba, neroMwanakomana neroMweya Mutsvene,
Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit;
