耶稣复活

28 安息日刚过,周日黎明时分,抹大拉的玛丽亚和另一位玛丽亚一同到坟墓去察看。

突然,大地剧烈地震动,上帝的天使从天而降,推开堵着墓穴的石头,坐在上面。 他的容貌如闪电,衣裳洁白如雪。 看守墓穴的卫兵吓得要死,浑身发抖。

天使对那两个女人说:“不要怕,我知道你们是在找那位被钉十字架的耶稣。 祂不在这里,正如祂所说的,祂已经复活了。你们来看,这是安放祂的地方。 现在你们快回去,把这消息告诉祂的门徒,祂已经从死里复活,先你们一步去了加利利,你们将在那里见到祂。记住,我已经告诉你们了。”

她们听了又惊又喜,连忙离开坟墓,跑去告诉门徒。 忽然,耶稣迎面而来,对她们说:“愿你们平安!”她们就上前抱住祂的脚敬拜祂。

10 耶稣对她们说:“不要害怕。去告诉我的弟兄,叫他们到加利利去,他们将在那里见到我。”

行贿造谣

11 她们还在赶路的时候,有些守墓的卫兵已经进城把整件事告诉祭司长。 12 祭司长和长老聚集商议,决定用重金买通守墓的卫兵,又吩咐他们: 13 “你们就说,‘半夜里我们熟睡的时候,耶稣的门徒把祂的尸体偷走了。’ 14 如果这件事传到总督那里,我们一定会替你们出面,保你们无事。” 15 守卫收下钱,便依照吩咐去做。于是,这说法在犹太人中一直流传到今天。

大使命

16 十一个门徒赶到加利利,到了耶稣和他们约定的山上, 17 看到耶稣就敬拜祂,但有些人仍然心存疑惑。 18 耶稣上前对门徒说:

“天上地下所有的权柄都交给我了。 19 所以,你们要去使万民做我的门徒,奉父、子、圣灵的名给他们施洗, 20 教导他们遵守我吩咐你们的一切。记住,我必常与你们同在,一直到世界的末了。”

Jesus Is Raised

28 Now after the Sabbath, at the dawning on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to view the tomb. And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came up and[a] rolled away the stone and sat down[b] on it. Now his appearance was like lightning and his clothing white as snow. And the guards trembled from the fear of him and became like dead men. But the angel answered and[c] said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here, for he has been raised, just as he said. Come, see the place where he was lying. And go quickly, tell his disciples, ‘He has been raised from the dead, and behold, he is going ahead of you into Galilee. You will see him there.’ Behold, I have told you.” And they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and[d] ran to tell his disciples. And behold, Jesus met them, saying, “Greetings!” And they came up and[e] took hold of his feet and worshiped him. 10 Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid! Go tell my brothers that they should go to Galilee, and there they will see me.”

The Guards Report the Body Stolen

11 And while[f] they were going, behold, some of the guard of soldiers went into the city and[g] reported to the chief priests everything that had happened. 12 And after they[h] had assembled with the elders and had taken counsel, they gave a rather large sum of money to the soldiers, 13 telling them,[i] “Say ‘His disciples came during the night and[j] stole him while[k] we were sleeping.’ 14 And if this matter is heard before the governor, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.”[l] 15 So they took the money and[m] did as they were told, and spread abroad this report among the Jews until this very day.

The Great Commission

16 So the eleven disciples proceeded to Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had designated for them. 17 And when they[n] saw him, they worshiped him,[o] but some doubted. 18 And Jesus approached and[p] spoke to them, saying, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore, go[q] and[r] make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you, and behold, I am with you all the days until the end of the age.”

Résurrection de Jésus

28 Après le sabbat, à l'aube du dimanche, Marie de Magdala et l'autre Marie allèrent voir le tombeau. Soudain, il y eut un grand tremblement de terre, car un ange du Seigneur descendit du ciel, vint rouler la pierre [de devant l’ouverture] et s'assit dessus. Il avait l’aspect de l'éclair et son vêtement était blanc comme la neige. Les gardes tremblèrent de peur et devinrent comme morts, mais l'ange prit la parole et dit aux femmes: «Quant à vous, n’ayez pas peur, car je sais que vous cherchez Jésus, celui qui a été crucifié. Il n'est pas ici, car il est ressuscité, comme il l'avait dit. Venez voir l'endroit où le Seigneur était couché et allez vite dire à ses disciples qu'il est ressuscité. Il vous précède en Galilée. C'est là que vous le verrez. Voilà, je vous l'ai dit.»

Elles s'éloignèrent rapidement du tombeau, avec crainte et une grande joie, et elles coururent porter la nouvelle aux disciples. Et voici que Jésus vint à leur rencontre et dit: «Je vous salue.» Elles s'approchèrent, s’agrippèrent à ses pieds et se prosternèrent devant lui. 10 Alors Jésus leur dit: «N’ayez pas peur! Allez dire à mes frères de se rendre en Galilée: c'est là qu'ils me verront.»

11 Pendant qu'elles étaient en chemin, quelques hommes de la garde entrèrent dans la ville et annoncèrent aux chefs des prêtres tout ce qui était arrivé. 12 Après s'être réunis avec les anciens pour tenir conseil, ceux-ci donnèrent une forte somme d'argent aux soldats 13 avec cette consigne: «Dites que ses disciples sont venus de nuit voler le corps pendant que vous dormiez. 14 Et si le gouverneur l'apprend, nous l'apaiserons et nous ferons en sorte que vous n'ayez pas d'ennuis.» 15 Les soldats prirent l'argent et se conformèrent aux instructions reçues. Et ce récit des événements s'est propagé parmi les Juifs jusqu'à aujourd’hui.

Mission confiée aux disciples

16 Les onze disciples allèrent en Galilée, sur la montagne que Jésus leur avait désignée. 17 Quand ils le virent, ils se prosternèrent [devant lui], mais quelques-uns eurent des doutes. 18 Jésus s'approcha et leur dit: «Tout pouvoir m'a été donné dans le ciel et sur la terre. 19 Allez [donc], faites de toutes les nations des disciples, baptisez-les au nom du Père, du Fils et du Saint-Esprit 20 et enseignez-leur à mettre en pratique tout ce que je vous ai prescrit. Et moi, je suis avec vous tous les jours, jusqu'à la fin du monde.»
