Matthew

                                   Chapter 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.
  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.
  3. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as
     snow:
  4. And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as
     dead men.
  5. And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye:
     for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
  6. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the
     place where the Lord lay.
  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.
  8. And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and
     great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
  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.
 10. Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my
     brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see
     me.
 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.
 12. And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken
     counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,
 13. Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him
     away while we slept.
 14. And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade
     him, and secure you.
 15. So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and
     this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this
     day.
