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.”
Jesus Is Alive
(Mark 16.1-8Luke 24.1-12John 20.1-10)1 The Sabbath was over, and it was almost daybreak on Sunday when Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb. 2 Suddenly a strong earthquake struck, and the Lord's angel came down from heaven. He rolled away the stone and sat on it. 3 The angel looked as bright as lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. 4 The guards shook from fear and fell down, as though they were dead.
5 The angel said to the women, “Don't be afraid! I know you are looking for Jesus, who was nailed to a cross. 6 He isn't here! God has raised him to life, just as Jesus said he would. Come, see the place where his body was lying. 7 Now hurry! Tell his disciples he has been raised to life and is on his way to Galilee. Go there, and you will see him. This is what I came to tell you.”
8 The women were frightened and yet very happy, as they hurried from the tomb and ran to tell his disciples. 9 Suddenly Jesus met them and greeted them. They went near him, held on to his feet, and worshiped him. 10 Then Jesus said, “Don't be afraid! Tell my followers to go to Galilee. They will see me there.”
Report of the Guard
11 While the women were on their way, some soldiers who had been guarding the tomb went into the city. They told the chief priests everything that had happened. 12 So the chief priests met with the leaders and decided to bribe the soldiers with a lot of money. 13 They said to the soldiers, “Tell everyone that Jesus' disciples came during the night and stole his body while you were asleep. 14 If the governor hears about this, we will talk to him. You won't have anything to worry about.” 15 The soldiers took the money and did what they were told. The people of Judea still tell each other this story.
What Jesus' Followers Must Do
(Mark 16.14-18Luke 24.36-49John 20.19-23Acts 1.6-8)16 Jesus' eleven disciples went to a mountain in Galilee, where Jesus had told them to meet him. 17 They saw him and worshiped him, but some of them doubted.
18 Jesus came to them and said:
I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth! 19 Go to the people of all nations and make them my disciples. Baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, 20 and teach them to do everything I have told you. I will be with you always, even until the end of the world.
