And the sabbath having past, Mary the Magdalene, and Mary of James, and Salome, bought spices, that having come, they may anoint him, |
2
|
and early in the morning of the first of the sabbaths, they come unto the sepulchre, at the rising of the sun, |
3
|
and they said among themselves, 'Who shall roll away for us the stone out of the door of the sepulchre?' |
4
|
And having looked, they see that the stone hath been rolled away—for it was very great, |
5
|
and having entered into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right hand, arrayed in a long white robe, and they were amazed. |
6
|
And he saith to them, 'Be not amazed, ye seek Jesus the Nazarene, the crucified: he did rise—he is not here; lo, the place where they laid him! |
7
|
and go, say to his disciples, and Peter, that he doth go before you to Galilee; there ye shall see him, as he said to you.' |
8
|
And, having come forth quickly, they fled from the sepulchre, and trembling and amazement had seized them, and to no one said they anything, for they were afraid. |
9
|
And he, having risen in the morning of the first of the sabbaths, did appear first to Mary the Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven demons; |
10
|
she having gone, told those who had been with him, mourning and weeping; |
11
|
and they, having heard that he is alive, and was seen by her, did not believe. |
12
|
And after these things, to two of them, as they are going into a field, walking, he was manifested in another form, |
13
|
and they having gone, told to the rest; not even them did they believe. |
14
|
Afterwards, as they are reclining (at meat), he was manifested to the eleven, and did reproach their unbelief and stiffness of heart, because they believed not those having seen him being raised; |
15
|
and he said to them, 'Having gone to all the world, proclaim the good news to all the creation; |
16
|
he who hath believed, and hath been baptized, shall be saved; and he who hath not believed, shall be condemned. |
17
|
'And signs shall accompany those believing these things; in my name demons they shall cast out; with new tongues they shall speak; |
18
|
serpents they shall take up; and if any deadly thing they may drink, it shall not hurt them; on the ailing they shall lay hands, and they shall be well.' |
19
|
The Lord, then, indeed, after speaking to them, was received up to the heaven, and sat on the right hand of God; |
20
|
and they, having gone forth, did preach everywhere, the Lord working with [them], and confirming the word, through the signs following. Amen. |
