1 | 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, 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 | His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as
snow: |
|
4 | And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead
men. |
|
5 | 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 is risen, as he said. Come, see the
place where the Lord lay. |
|
7 | 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 they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and
great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word. |
|
9 | 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 said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren
that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me. |
|
11 | 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 when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken
counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers, |
|
13 | Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him
away while we slept. |
|
14 | And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him,
and secure you. |
|
15 | So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this
saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day. |
|
16 | Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a
mountain where Jesus had appointed them. |
|
17 | And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted. |
|
18 | And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given
unto me in heaven and in earth. |
|
19 | 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 have
commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end
of the world. Amen.
