Matthew 28, Good News Translation of the Bible
After the Sabbath, as
Sunday morning was dawning, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at
the tomb. 2 Suddenly there was a violent earthquake; an angel of the Lord came
down from heaven, rolled the stone away, and sat on it. 3 His appearance was
like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. 4 The guards were so afraid
that they trembled and became like dead men.
5 The angel spoke to the women. “You must not be afraid,” he said. “I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. 6 He is not here; he has been raised, just as he said. Come here and see the place where he was lying. 7 Go quickly now, and tell his disciples, ‘He has been raised from death, and now he is going to Galilee ahead of you; there you will see him!’ Remember what I have told you.”
8 So they left the tomb in a hurry, afraid and yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples.
9 Suddenly Jesus met them and said, “Peace be with you.” They came up to him, took hold of his feet, and worshiped him. 10 “Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to them. “Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.”
Jesus Appears to His Disciples
16 The eleven disciples
went to the hill in Galilee where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw
him, they worshiped him, even though some of them doubted. 18 Jesus drew near
and said to them, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. 19
Go, then, to all peoples everywhere and make them my disciples: baptize them in
the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, 20 and teach them to obey
everything I have commanded you. And I will be with you always, to the end of
the age.”
