Chapter 28
|
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. |
