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.
