1 Vpon an euening of the Sabbothes, whych dawneth the fyrst daye of the Sabbathes, came Mary Magdalene & the other Mary, to se the sepulcre.
2 And beholde, ther was a greate earthquake. For the angell of the Lord descended from heauen, & came & rowlled backe the stone from the dore, and sat vpon it.
3 Hys countenaunce was lyke lyghtnynge, and his rayment whyte as snowe.
4 And for feare of him the kepers were astonnyed, and became as deed men.
5 The angell answered, & sayd vnto the wemen, feare ye not. For I knowe, that ye seke Iesus which was crucifyed:
6 he is not here: he is rysen as he sayde. Come se the place where the the Lord was layed:
7 & go quickly, & tell his disciples, that he is rysen agayne from the deed. And behold, he goeth before you into Galile, there ye shall se him. Lo I haue tolde you:
8 And they departed quickly from the sepulcre, with feare and greate Ioye, & dyd runne, to bryng his disciples worde.
9 And as they went to tell his disciples: beholde, Iesus met them, sayinge: All hayle. And they came, & held him by the fete, & worshipped him.
10 Then sayd Iesus vnto them: be not afrayde. Go tell my brethren, that they go into Galile & there shal they se me.
11 When they were gone, behold, some of the kepers came into the cytie & shewed vnto the hye prestes, all the thinges that had happened.
12 And they gathered them together with the elders, & toke counsell, & gaue large money vnto the soudiers,
13 saying: Saye ye, that his disciples came by nyght & stole hym awaye whyle ye slept.
14 And yf this come to the rulers eares, we will persuade him, and saue you harmeles.
15 So they toke the money, & dyd as they were taught. And this sayinge is noysed amonge the Iewes vnto this daye.
16 Then the .xj. disciples went awaye into Galile, into a mountayne where Iesus had appoynted them.
17 And when they sawe him, they worshipped him. But some douted.
18 And Iesus came, and spake vnto them, sayinge: All power is geuen vnto me in heauen, & in erth.
19 Go ye therfore, & teach all nacions, baptising them in the name of the father, & of the sonne, & of the holy goost:
20 Teachinge them to obserue all thinges, whatsoeuer I haue commaunded you. And lo I am wyth you allwaye, euen vntyll the ende of the worlde.
