Mateus 28

1 Now after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb. 2 Behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from the sky and came and rolled away the stone from the door and sat on it. 3 His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow. 4 For fear of him, the guards shook, and became like dead men. 5 The angel answered the women, "Don’t be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus, who has been crucified. 6 He is not here, for he has risen, just like he said. Come, see the place where the Lord was lying. 7 Go quickly and tell his disciples, ‘He has risen from the dead, and behold, he goes before you into Galilee; there you will see him.’ Behold, I have told you."

8 They departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to bring his disciples word. 9 As they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, "Rejoice!"

They came and took hold of his feet, and worshiped him.

10 Then Jesus said to them, "Don’t be afraid. Go tell my brothers *28:10 The word for "brothers" here may be also correctly translated "brothers and sisters" or "siblings." that they should go into Galilee, and there they will see me."

11 Now while they were going, behold, some of the guards came into the city and told the chief priests all the things that had happened. 12 When they were assembled with the elders and had taken counsel, they gave a large amount of silver to the soldiers, 13 saying, "Say that his disciples came by night and stole him away while we slept. 14 If this comes to the governor’s ears, we will persuade him and make you free of worry." 15 So they took the money and did as they were told. This saying was spread abroad among the Jews, and continues until today.

16 But the eleven disciples went into Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had sent them. 17 When they saw him, they bowed down to him; but some doubted. 18 Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go*28:19 TR and NU add "therefore" and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I commanded you. Behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Amen.

Te Aranga

1 I te mutunga o te hāpati i te mea ka tata tonu te pūao te rā tuatahi o te wiki, ka haere a Meri Makarini me tērā Meri kia kite i te tanumanga. 2 Nā, he nui te rū i puta mai; i heke iho hoki tētahi anahera a te Ariki i te rangi, ā, haere ana, whakatakā atu ana e ia te kōhatu i te kūwaha, ā, noho ana i runga. 3 Ko tōna āhua me te mea he uira, mā tonu tōna kākahu ānō he hukarere. 4 Ā, wiri noa iho ngā kaitiaki i te wehi ki a ia, ka rite ki te tūpāpaku.

5 Nā, ka oho te anahera, ka mea ki ngā wāhine, "Kei wehi kōrua; e mātau ana hoki ahau, e rapu ana kōrua i a Īhu i rīpekatia. 6 Kāhore ia i konei; kua ara kē, kua pērā me tāna i mea ai. Haere mai kia kite i te wāhi i takoto ai te Ariki. 7 Ā, hohoro te haere, kōrerotia ki āna ākonga, ‘Kua ara ia i te hunga mate; tēnā ia te haere nā i mua i a koutou ki Karirī; ko reira koutou kite ai i a ia.’ Nā, kua kōrero nei ahau ki a kōrua."

8 Ā, hohoro tonu tā rāua haere atu i te urupā, me te wehi, me te harakoa nui, ā, oma ana ki te kōrero ki āna ākonga. 9 Nā, ka tūtaki a Īhu ki a rāua, ka mea mai, "E ia mā." Nā, ka haere atu rāua, ka pupuri i ōna waewae, ka koropiko ki a ia. 10 Kātahi a Īhu ka mea ki a rāua, "Aua e wehi; haere, kī atu ki ōku tēina kia haere ki Karirī, ko reira hoki rātou kite ai i ahau."

Ngā Kōrero a ētahi Kaitiaki

11 Ā, i a rāua e haere ana, nā, kua tae ētahi o ngā kaitiaki ki te pā, kua kōrero ki ngā tohunga nui i ngā mea katoa i meatia. 12 Nā, ka mutu tā rātou huihui ko ngā kaumātua, ā, ka rūnanga, ka hoatu e rātou he moni nui ki ngā hōia, 13 ka mea atu, "Me kī e koutou, ‘I haere āna ākonga i te pō, ā, tāhaetia ana ia, i a mātou e moe ana.’ 14 Ā, ki te tae te rongo o tēnei ki te kāwana, mā mātou ia e whakamārie, ā, kāhore he mānukanuka mō koutou."

15 Nā, ka tango rātou i ngā moni, ā, meinga ana ngā mea i ākona ai rātou. Heoi, kei te kōrerotia tēnei e ngā Hūrai, ā taea noatia tēnei rā.

Ka Puta Mai a Īhu ki Āna Ākonga

16 Nā, ka haere ngā ākonga tekau mā tahi ki Karirī, ki te maunga i whakaritea e Īhu ki a rātou. 17 Ā, i tō rātou kitenga i a ia, ka koropiko ki a ia; ko ētahi ia i ruarua. 18 Nā, ka haere mai a Īhu, ka kōrero ki a rātou, ka mea, "Kua tukua katoatia mai ki ahau te mana i te rangi, ā, i runga i te whenua 19 Nā reira haere, meinga hei ākonga ngā iwi katoa, iriiria i runga i te ingoa o te Matua, o te Tama, o te Wairua Tapu, 20 ākona rātou kia mau ki ngā mea katoa i whakahaua, e ahau ki a koutou. Nā, ko ahau tēnā hei hoa mō koutou i ngā rā katoa, ā te mutunga rā anō o te ao." Āmine.
