28 Now after the Sabbath, near dawn of the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala and the other Mary went to take a look at the tomb.

² And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled the boulder back and sat upon it.

³ His appearance was like lightning, and his garments as white as snow.

⁴ And those keeping guard were so frightened at the sight of him that they were agitated and they trembled and became like dead men.

⁵ But the angel said to the women, Do not be alarmed and frightened, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, Who was crucified.

⁶ He is not here; He has risen, as He said [He would do]. Come, see the place where He lay.

⁷ Then go quickly and tell His disciples, He has risen from the dead, and behold, He is going before you to Galilee; there you will see Him. Behold, I have told you.

⁸ So they left the tomb hastily with fear and great joy and ran to tell the disciples.

⁹ And as they went, behold, Jesus met them and said, Hail (greetings)! And they went up to Him and clasped His feet and worshiped Him.

¹⁰ Then Jesus said to them, Do not be alarmed and afraid; go and tell My brethren to go into Galilee, and there they will see Me.

¹¹ While they were on their way, behold, some of the guards went into the city and reported to the chief priests everything that had occurred.

¹² And when they [the chief priests] had gathered with the elders and had consulted together, they gave a sufficient sum of money to the soldiers,

¹³ And said, Tell people, His disciples came at night and stole Him away while we were sleeping.

¹⁴ And if the governor hears of it, we will appease him and make you safe and free from trouble and care.

¹⁵ So they took the money and did as they were instructed; and this story has been current among the Jews to the present day.

¹⁶ Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed and made appointment with them.

¹⁷ And when they saw Him, they fell down and worshiped Him; but some doubted.

¹⁸ Jesus approached and, ^[a]breaking the silence, said to them, All authority (all power of rule) in heaven and on earth has been given to Me.

¹⁹ Go then and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them ^[b]into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

²⁰ Teaching them to observe everything that I have commanded you, and behold, I am with you ^[c]all the days (^[d]perpetually, uniformly, and on every occasion), to the [very] close and consummation of the age. ^[e]Amen (so let it be).
