Matthew 28

¹And in the evening of the Sabboth which dawneth on the first of the Sabboth, came Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

²And behold there was made a great earth-quake. For an Angel of our Lord descended from Heaven: and coming, rolled back the stone, and sat upon it:

³and his countenance was as lightning, and his garment as snow.

⁴And for fear of him, the watchmen were frighted, and became as dead.

⁵And the Angel answering said to the women: Fear not you. For I know that you seek Jesus that was crucified.

⁶He is not here, for he is risen, as he said. Come, and see the place where our Lord was laid.

⁷And going quickly, tell ye his Disciples that he is risen: and behold he goeth before you into Galilee: there you shall see him. Lo I have foretold you.

⁸And they went forth quickly out of the monument with fear and great joy, running to tell his Disciples.

⁹And behold Jesus met them, saying: All hail. But they came near and took hold of his feet, and adored him.

¹⁰Then Jesus said to them: Fear not. Go, tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, there they shall see me.

¹¹Who when they were departed, behold certain of the watchmen came into the city, and told the chief Priests all things that had been done.

¹²And being assembled together with the Ancients, taking counsel, they gave a great sum of money to the soldiers,

¹³saying: Say you, that his Disciples came by night, and stole him away when we were asleep.

¹⁴And if the President shall hear of this, we will persuade him, and make you secure.

¹⁵But they taking the money, did as they were taught. And this word was bruited abroad among the Jews, even unto this day.

¹⁶And the eleven Disciples went into Galilee, unto the mount where Jesus had appointed them.

¹⁷And seeing him they adored, but some doubted.

¹⁸And Jesus coming near spake unto them, saying: All power is given to me in Heaven and in earth.

¹⁹going therefore teach ye all Nations: Baptizing Them in The Name of The Father, And of The Son, And of The Holy Ghost,^†

²⁰teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world.
