Matthew 28:1-10 - Jesus Is Raised

¹ And, late in the week, when it was on the point of dawning into the first of the week, came Mary the Magdalene, and the other Mary, to view the sepulchre. ² And lo! a great commotion occurred, - for, a messenger of the Lord, descending out of heaven, and coming near, had rolled away the stone, and was sitting upon it. ³ Now his appearance, was, as lightning, and, his clothing, white as snow; ⁴ and, for fear of him, they who were keeping watch were thrown into a commotion, and became as dead men.

⁵ But the messenger, answering, said unto the women - Be not, ye, afraid! For I know that, Jesus the crucified, ye are seeking: ⁶ He is not here, for he hath arisen, as he said. Come! see the place where he lay; ⁷ And, quickly going, tell his disciples - He hath arisen from the dead, and lo! he is going before you into Galilee; - There, shall ye yourselves see him: Lo! I have told you.

⁸ And, departing quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to bring tidings unto his disciples. ⁹ And lo! Jesus, met them, saying - Joy to you! And, they, going forward, held his feet, and worshipped him. ¹⁰ Then, Jesus saith unto them - Be not afraid! Go your way, bear tidings unto my brethren, that they may depart into Galilee; and, there, shall they themselves see me.

¹ And, the Sabbath having passed, Mary the Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices, that, coming, they might anoint him. ² And, very early, on the first of the week, they are coming towards the tomb - when, the sun, arose. ³ And they were saying one to another - Who, shall roll away for us the stone, out of the door of the tomb? ⁴ And, looking up, they observe that the stone hath been rolled up, - for it was exceeding great. ⁵ And, entering into the tomb, they saw a young man, sitting on the right, clothed with a white robe, - and they were greatly alarmed.

⁶ But, he, saith unto them - Be not alarmed! Jesus, ye are seeking, the Nazarene, the crucified: He hath arisen! he is not here, - See! the place where they laid him! ⁷ But go your way, tell his disciples, and Peter - He is going before you into Galilee: there, shall ye yourselves see him, - according as he said unto you.

⁸ And, going out, they fled from the tomb, for, trembling and transport, were holding them; and, unto no one, said they, anything, for they were afraid.

¹ but, on the first day of the week, at early dawn, unto the tomb, came they, bringing the spices which they had prepared. ² And they found the stone, rolled away from the tomb; ³ but, when they entered, they found not the body . ⁴ And it came to pass, while they were perplexing themselves concerning this, that 1o! two men, stood near them, in dazzling raiment. ⁵ And, they becoming afraid, and bending their faces unto the ground, they said unto them - Why seek ye the Living One with the dead? ⁶ Remember how he spake unto you while yet he was in Galilee: ⁷ Saying, as to the Son of Man, that he must needs be delivered up into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, - and, on the third day, arise. ⁸ And they remembered his sayings;

⁹ and, returning from the tomb, reported all these things unto the eleven, and unto all the rest. ¹⁰ Now they were the Magdalene Mary, and Joana, and Mary the mother of James; and, the other women with them, were telling, unto the apostles, these things. ¹¹ And these sayings appeared before them, as if idle talk, and they were minded to disbelieve them.

¹ But, on the first day of the week, Mary the Magdalene, cometh early, while it is yet, dark, unto the tomb, - and beholdeth the stone, already taken away out of the tomb. ² She runneth, therefore, and cometh unto Simon Peter, and unto the other disciple whom Jesus dearly loved, and saith unto them - They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we know not where they have laid him.

³ Peter, therefore, went out, and the other disciple, - and they were going unto the tomb; ⁴ and the two were running together, and, the other disciple, outran Peter, and came first unto the tomb; ⁵ and, stooping aside, beholdeth, lying, the linen-bandages, nevertheless, he entered not. ⁶ So Simon Peter also cometh, following him, and entered into the tomb, and vieweth the linen-bandages lying, - ⁷ and the napkin, which was upon his head, not, with the linen-bandages, lying, but apart, folded up into one place. ⁸ Then, entered, therefore, the other disciple also, who had come first unto the tomb, and he saw and believed. ⁹ For, not yet, knew they the Scripture, that he must needs, from among the dead, arise.
