1 En toe die sabbat verby was, het Maria Magdal,na en Maria, die moeder van Jakobus, en Salome speserye gekoop om Hom te gaan salf.

2 En baie vroeg op die eerste dag van die week, net n sonop, kom hulle by die graf.

3 En hulle sê vir mekaar: Wie sal vir ons die steen voor die opening van die graf wegrol?

4 En toe hulle opkyk, sien hulle dat die steen weggerol was, want dit was baie groot.

5 En toe hulle in die graf ingegaan het, sien hulle 'n jongman, met 'n lang wit kleed om, aan die regterkant sit, en hulle het baie geskrik.

6 En hy sê vir hulle: Moenie verskrik wees nie. Julle soek Jesus die Nasar,ner wat gekruisig is. Hy het opgestaan. Hy is nie hier nie. D r is die plek waar hulle Hom neergelê het.

7 Maar gaan sê vir sy dissipels en vir Petrus dat Hy voor julle uit gaan na Galil,a. Daar sal julle Hom sien soos Hy vir julle gesê het.

8 Toe gaan hulle haastig uit en vlug van die graf af weg. En bewing en ontsetting het hulle aangegryp. En hulle het vir niemand iets gesê nie, want hulle het gevrees.

9 En nadat Hy opgestaan het, vroeg op die eerste dag van die week, het Hy eers verskyn aan Maria Magdal,na, uit wie Hy sewe duiwels uitgedryf het.

10 Sy het gegaan en dit vertel aan die wat saam met Hom gewees het, terwyl hulle treur en ween.

11 En toe hulle hoor dat Hy lewe en deur haar gesien is, het hulle dit nie geglo nie.

12 En hierna het Hy in 'n ander gedaante verskyn aan twee van hulle terwyl hulle loop, op pad in die veld.

13 Hulle het ook gegaan en dit aan die ander vertel, maar die het hulle ook nie geglo nie.

14 Later het Hy aan die elf self verskyn toe hulle aan tafel was, en Hy het hulle hul ongeloof en hardheid van hart verwyt, omdat hulle die wat Hom n sy opstanding gesien het, nie geglo het nie.

15 En Hy het vir hulle gesê: Gaan die hele wêreld in en verkondig die evangelie aan die ganse mensdom.

16 Hy wat glo en hom laat doop, sal gered word; maar hy wat nie glo nie, sal veroordeel word.

17 En vir die wat geglo het, sal hierdie tekens volg: in my Naam sal hulle duiwels uitdryf, met nuwe tale sal hulle spreek,

18 slange sal hulle opneem; en as hulle iets dodeliks drink, sal dit hulle geen kwaad doen nie; op siekes sal hulle die hande lê, en hulle sal gesond word.

19 Nadat die Here dan met hulle gespreek het, is Hy opgeneem in die hemel en het gaan sit aan die regterhand van God.

20 Maar hulle het uitgegaan en oral gepreek, en die Here het saamgewerk en die woord bevestig deur die tekens wat daarop gevolg het. Amen.

1 And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of James, and Salome, got spices, so that they might come and put them on him.

2 And very early after dawn on the first day of the week, they came at the time of the coming up of the sun to the place where the body had been put.

3 And they were saying among themselves, Who will get the stone rolled away from the door for us?

4 And looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back; and it was of great size.

5 And when they went in, they saw a young man seated on the right side, dressed in a white robe; and they were full of wonder.

6 And he said to them, Do not be troubled: you are looking for Jesus, the Nazarene, who has been put to death on the cross; he has come back from the dead; he is not here: see, the place where they put him!

7 But go, say to his disciples and to Peter, He goes before you into Galilee: there you will see him, as he said to you.

8 And they went out quickly from the place, because fear and great wonder had come on them: and they said nothing to anyone, because they were full of fear that ...

9 Now when he came back from the dead early on the first day of the week, he went first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had sent out seven evil spirits.

10 She went and gave news of it to those who had been with him, while they were sorrowing and weeping.

11 And they, when it came to their ears that he was living, and had been seen by her, had no belief in it.

12 And after these things he was seen in another form by two of them, while they were walking on their way into the country.

13 And they went away and gave news of it to the rest; and they had no belief in what was said.

14 And later he was seen by the eleven themselves while they were taking food; and he said sharp words to them because they had no faith and their hearts were hard, and because they had no belief in those who had seen him after he had come back from the dead.

15 And he said to them, Go into all the world, and give the good news to everyone.

16 He who has faith and is given baptism will get salvation; but he who has not faith will be judged.

17 And these signs will be with those who have faith: in my name they will send out evil spirits; and they will make use of new languages;

18 They will take up snakes, and if there is poison in their drink, it will do them no evil; they will put their hands on those who are ill, and they will get well.

19 So then the Lord Jesus, after he had said these words to them, was taken up into heaven and took his seat at the right hand of God.

20 And they went out, preaching everywhere, the Lord working with them, and giving witness to the word by the signs which came after. So be it.
