Matthew 28

CLV(i) 1 Now it is the evening of the sabbaths. At the lighting up into one of the sabbaths came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to behold the sepulcher. 2 And lo! a great quake occurred, for a messenger of the Lord, descending out of heaven and approaching, rolls away the stone from the door and sat upon it." 3 Now he was, to the perception, as lightning, and his apparel white as if snow." 4 Now from fear of him the keepers quaked and became as the dead. 5 Now, answering, the messenger said to the women, "Fear you not! For I am aware that you are seeking Jesus, the Crucified." 6 He is not here, for He was roused, according as He said. Hither! Perceive the place where the Lord lay." 7 And, swiftly going, say to His disciples that He was roused from the dead, and lo! He is preceding you into Galilee. There you will see Him. Lo! I told you!" 8 And coming away swiftly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to report to His disciples." 9 Now, as they went to report to His disciples, lo! Jesus also meets them saying, "Rejoice!Now they, approaching, hold His feet and worship Him." 10 Then Jesus is saying to them, "Fear not! Go, report to My brethren that they may be coming away into Galilee, and there they shall see Me." 11 Now at their going, lo! some of the detail, coming into the city, report to the chief priests all that is occurring." 12 And being gathered with the elders, besides holding a consultation, they give a considerable sum of silver to the soldiers, 13 saying, "Say that 'His disciples, coming by night, steal him as we are reposing.'" 14 And if ever this should be heard by the governor, we will persuade him, and we will make you to be without worry." 15 Now they, getting the silver pieces, do according as they were taught. And this word is blazed abroad by the Jews unto today." 16 Now the eleven disciples went into Galilee, into the mountain where Jesus arranges with them." 17 And, perceiving Him, they worship Him, yet they hesitate." 18 And, approaching, Jesus speaks to them saying, "Given to Me was all authority in heaven and on the earth." 19 Going, then, disciple all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, 20 teaching them to be keeping all, whatever I direct you. And lo! I am with you all the days till the conclusion of the eon! Amen!"
