aWhen the Sabbath was over
, bMary
Magdalene
, and Mary
the mother of 1James
, and Salome
, cbought
spices
, so
that they might come
and anoint
Him.
Very early
on the first
day of the week
, they *came
to the tomb
when the sun
had risen
.
They were saying to one
another
, "Who
will roll
away
athe stone
for us from the entrance
of the tomb
?"
Looking up, they *saw
that the stone
had been rolled
away
, 1although
it was extremely
large
.
aEntering the tomb
, they saw
a young
man
sitting
at the right
, wearing
a white
robe
; and they bwere amazed
.
And he *said to them, " aDo not be amazed
; you are looking
for Jesus
the bNazarene
, who has been crucified
. cHe has risen
; He is not here
; behold
, here is the place
where
they laid
Him.
"But go, tell
His disciples
and Peter
, ` aHe is going
ahead
of you to Galilee
; there
you will see
Him, just
as He told
you.' "
They went out and fled
from the tomb
, for trembling
and astonishment
had gripped
them; and they said
nothing
to anyone
, for they were afraid
.
[ 1Now after He had risen
early
on the first
day of the week
, He first
appeared
to aMary
Magdalene
, from whom
He had cast
out seven
demons
.
aShe went and reported
to those
who had been
with Him, while they were mourning
and weeping
.
When they heard that He was alive
and had been seen
by her, athey refused
to believe
it.
After that, aHe appeared
in a different
form
bto two
of them while they were walking
along on their way
to the country
.
They went away
and reported
it to the others
, but they adid not believe
them either
.
Afterward aHe appeared
bto the eleven
themselves
as they were reclining
at the table; and He reproached
them for their cunbelief
and hardness
of heart
, because
they had not believed
those
who had seen
Him after He had risen
.
And He said to them, " aGo
into all
the world
and preach
the gospel
to all
creation
.
" aHe who has believed and has been baptized
shall be saved
; but he who has disbelieved
shall be condemned
.
"These 1signs
will accompany
those
who have believed
: ain My name
they will cast
out demons
, they will bspeak
with new
tongues
;
they will apick up serpents
, and if
they drink
any
deadly
poison, it will not hurt
them; they will blay
hands
on the sick
, and they will recover
."
So then
, when the Lord
Jesus
had aspoken
to them, He bwas received
up into heaven
and csat
down
at the right
hand
of God
.
And they went out and preached
everywhere
, while the Lord
worked
with them, and confirmed
the word
by the 1signs
that followed
.]
[ 2And they promptly reported all these instructions to Peter and his companions. And after that, Jesus Himself sent out through them from east to west the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation. ]
