1 And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the
mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might
come and anoint him. 2 And very early in the morning the first day of
the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun. 3 And
they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the
door of the sepulchre? 4 And when they looked, they saw that the stone
was rolled away: for it was very great.
5 And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the
right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted. 6
And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth,
which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where
they laid him.
7 But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he
goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto
you. 8 And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they
trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for
they were afraid.
9 Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared
first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils. 10 And
she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.
11 And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen
of her, believed not.
12 After that he appeared in another form unto two
of them, as they walked, and went into the country. 13 And they went
and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them.
14 Afterward
he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with
their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them
which had seen him after he was risen.
15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the
gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be
saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17 And these signs
shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils;
they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and
if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay
hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into
heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. 20 And they went forth, and
preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the
word with signs following. Amen.
