28  I te mutunga o te hapati i te mea ka tata tonu te puao te ra tuatahi o te wiki, ka haere a Meri Makarini me tera Meri kia kite i te tanumanga.

Na he nui te ru i puta mai: i heke iho hoki tetahi anahera a te Ariki i te rangi, a haere ana, whakataka atu ana e ia te kohatu i te kuwaha, a noho ana i runga.

Ko tona ahua me te mea he uira, ma tonu tona kakahu ano he hukarere:

A wiri noa iho nga kaitiaki i te wehi ki a ia, ka rite ki te tupapaku.

Na ka oho te anahera, ka mea ki nga wahine, Kei wehi korua: e matau ana hoki ahau, e rapu ana korua i a Ihu i ripekatia.

Kahore ia i konei: kua ara ke, kua pera me tana i mea ai. Haere mai kia kite i te wahi i takoto ai te Ariki.

A hohoro te haere, korerotia ki ana akonga, kua ara ia i te hunga mate: tena ia te haere na i mua i a koutou ki Kariri; ko reira koutou kite ai i a ia: na kua korero nei ahau ki a korua.

A hohoro tonu ta raua haere atu i te urupa, me te wehi, me te harakoa nui, a oma ana ki te korero ki ana akonga.

Na ka tutaki a Ihu ki a raua, ka mea mai, E ia ma. Na ka haere atu raua, ka pupuri i ona waewae, ka koropiko ki a ia.

10 Katahi a Ihu ka mea ki a raua, Aua e wehi: haere, ki atu ki oku teina kia haere ki Kariri, ko reira hoki ratou kite ai i ahau.

11 A, i a raua e haere ana, na kua tae etahi o nga kaitiaki ki te pa, kua korero ki nga tohunga nui i nga mea katoa i meatia.

12 Na, ka mutu ta ratou huihui ko nga kaumatua a ka runanga, ka hoatu e ratou he moni nui ki nga hoia,

13 Ka mea atu, Me ki e koutou, I haere ana akonga i te po, a tahaetia ana ia, i a matou e moe ana.

14 A, ki te tae te rongo o tenei ki te kawana, ma matou ia e whakamarie, a kahore he manukanuka mo koutou.

15 Na ka tango ratou i nga moni, a meinga ana nga mea i akona ai ratou: heoi kei te korerotia tenei e nga Hurai, a taea noatia tenei ra.

16 Na ka haere nga akonga tekau ma tahi ki Kariri, ki te maunga i whakaritea e Ihu ki a ratou.

17 A, i to ratou kitenga i a ia, ka koropiko ki a ia: ko etahi ia i ruarua.

18 Na ka haere mai a Ihu, ka korero ki a ratou, ka mea, Kua tukua katoatia mai ki ahau te mana i te rangi, a i runga i te whenua.

19 Na reira haere, meinga hei akonga nga iwi katoa, iriiria i runga i te ingoa o te Matua, o te Tama, o te Wairua tapu:

20 Akona ratou kia mau ki nga mea katoa i whakahaua e ahau ki a koutou: na, ko ahau tena hei hoa mo koutou i nga ra katoa, a te mutunga ra ano o te ao. Amine.

Jesus Has Risen(A)

28 After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene(B) and the other Mary(C) went to look at the tomb.

There was a violent earthquake,(D) for an angel(E) of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone(F) and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow.(G) The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.

The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid,(H) for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said.(I) Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee.(J) There you will see him.’ Now I have told you.”

So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Suddenly Jesus met them.(K) “Greetings,” he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. 10 Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers(L) to go to Galilee; there they will see me.”

The Guards’ Report

11 While the women were on their way, some of the guards(M) went into the city and reported to the chief priests everything that had happened. 12 When the chief priests had met with the elders and devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money, 13 telling them, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole him away(N) while we were asleep.’ 14 If this report gets to the governor,(O) we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.” 15 So the soldiers took the money and did as they were instructed. And this story has been widely circulated among the Jews to this very day.

The Great Commission

16 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go.(P) 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.(Q) 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations,(R) baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,(S) 20 and teaching(T) them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you(U) always, to the very end of the age.”(V)
