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.
16 ¶ Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. 17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted. 18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19 ¶ Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Jēzus augšāmcelšanās
(Mk 16:1–8Lk 24:1–12Jņ 20:1–10)
1 Pēc sabata, pirmajai nedēļas dienai austot, Marija Magdalēna un otra Marija nāca kapu aplūkot. 2 Un, redzi, notika liela zemestrīce, un Kunga eņģelis nāca no debesīm, pienācis novēla akmeni un apsēdās uz tā. 3 Viņa izskats bija kā zibens un drēbes baltas kā sniegs. 4 Sargi drebēja no bailēm un bija kā miruši. 5 Tad eņģelis uzrunāja sievietes: “Nebīstieties! Es zinu, ka jūs meklējat Jēzu, kas bija krustā sists, 6 viņa šeit nav, jo viņš ir augšāmcēlies, kā viņš bija sacījis. Nāciet, skatiet to vietu, kur viņš tika guldīts. 7 Un steidzieties un sakiet viņa mācekļiem, ka viņš ir augšāmcēlies no mirušajiem. Redzi, viņš pirms jums noies uz Galileju, tur jūs viņu redzēsiet. Redzi, es jums to jau esmu teicis.” 8 Tad tās steigšus devās prom no kapa, baiļu un liela prieka pārņemtas, tās skrēja pasludināt šo vēsti viņa mācekļiem. 9 Pēkšņi tām pretī nāca Jēzus, sacīdams: “Esiet sveicinātas!” Viņas pienāca klāt, apkampa viņa kājas un viņu pielūdza. 10 Tad Jēzus tām sacīja: “Nebīstieties! Ejiet paziņojiet maniem brāļiem, lai tie dodas uz Galileju, tur tie mani redzēs.”
Priesteru viltība
11 Sievietēm aizejot, daži sargi devās uz pilsētu paziņot virspriesteriem visu, kas bija noticis. 12 Un virspriesteri, sanākuši kopā ar vecajiem, nosprieda dot kareivjiem daudz naudas 13 un viņiem teica: “Sakiet, ka viņa mācekļi atnāca naktī, kad gulējāt, un viņu izzaga. 14 Un, ja tas nāks ausīs pārvaldniekam, tad mēs to pārliecināsim un jūs pasargāsim no nepatikšanām.” 15 Kareivji paņēma naudu un darīja, kā bija mācīti. Un šis stāsts ir izplatīts jūdu vidū līdz pat šai dienai.
Jēzus sūta mācekļus sludināt evaņģēliju
(Mk 16:14–18Lk 24:36–49Jņ 20:19–23Apd 1:6–8)
16 Bet viņa vienpadsmit mācekļi devās uz Galileju, uz to kalnu, ko Jēzus tiem bija norādījis. 17 Un tie, viņu ieraudzījuši, pielūdza viņu, taču daži šaubījās. 18 Jēzus, piegājis klāt, tiem sacīja: “Man ir dota visa vara debesīs un virs zemes, 19 tādēļ ejiet un dariet par mācekļiem visas tautas, tās kristīdami Tēva, Dēla un Svētā Gara vārdā, 20 tās mācīdami turēt visu, ko es jums esmu pavēlējis; un, redzi, es esmu ar jums ik dienas līdz laiku beigām.”
