Matthew 28 :: Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)

Mat 28:1

Now after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to look at the grave.

Mat 28:2And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the [fn]Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled away the stone and sat upon it.
Mat 28:3And his appearance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow.
Mat 28:4And the guards quaked from fear of him and became like dead men.
Mat 28:5And the angel answered and said to the women, “[fn]Do not be afraid; for I know that you are looking for Jesus who has been crucified.
Mat 28:6“He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said. Come, see the place where He was lying.
Mat 28:7“And go quickly and tell His disciples that He has risen from the dead; and behold, He is going ahead of you into Galilee, there you will see Him; behold, I have told you.”
Mat 28:8

And they left the tomb quickly with fear and great joy and ran to report it to His disciples.

Mat 28:9And behold, Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!” And they came up and took hold of His feet and worshiped Him.
Mat 28:10Then Jesus *said to them, [fn]Do not be afraid; go and report to My brothers to leave for Galilee, and there they will see Me.”
Mat 28:11

Now while they were on their way, behold, some of the guard came into the city and reported to the chief priests all that had happened.

Mat 28:12And when they had assembled with the elders and took counsel together, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers,
Mat 28:13and said, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came by night and stole Him away while we were asleep.’
Mat 28:14“And if this is heard before the governor, we will win him over and [fn]keep you out of trouble.”
Mat 28:15And they took the money and did as they had been instructed; and this story was widely spread among the Jews, and is to this day.
Mat 28:16

But the eleven disciples proceeded to Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had designated.

Mat 28:17And when they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some doubted.
Mat 28:18And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.
Mat 28:19[fn]Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,
Mat 28:20teaching them to keep all that I commanded you; and behold, I am with you [fn]always, even to the end of the age.”
