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:

28:2 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:

28:3 His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:

28:4 And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead:

28:5 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified:

28:6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay:

28:7 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:

28:8 And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word:

28:9 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:

28:10 Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me:

28:11 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:

28:12 And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers:

28:13 Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him [away] while we slept:

28:14 And if this come to the governor' s ears, we will persuade him, and secure you:

28:15 So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day:

28:16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them:

28:17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted:

28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth:

28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

28:20 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:
