¹And on the eve of the sabbaths, at the dawn, toward the first of the sabbaths, came Mary the Magdalene, and the other Mary, to see the sepulchre,

¹በሰንበትም መጨረሻ መጀመሪያው ቀን ሲነጋ መግደላዊት ማርያምና ሁለተኛይቱ ማርያም መቃብሩን ሊያዩ መጡ።

²and lo, there came a great earthquake, for a messenger of the Lord, having come down out of heaven, having come, did roll away the stone from the door, and was sitting upon it,

²እነሆም፥ የጌታ መልአክ ከሰማይ ስለ ወረደ ታላቅ የምድር መናወጥ ሆነ፤ ቀርቦም ድንጋዩን አንከባሎ በላዩ ተቀመጠ።

³and his countenance was as lightning, and his clothing white as snow,

³መልኩም እንደ መብረቅ ልብሱም እንደ በረዶ ነጭ ነበረ።

⁴and from the fear of him did the keepers shake, and they became as dead men.

⁴ጠባቆቹም እርሱን ከመፍራት የተነሣ ተናወጡ እንደ ሞቱም ሆኑ።

⁵And the messenger answering said to the women, `Fear not ye, for I have known that Jesus, who hath been crucified, ye seek;

⁵መልአኩም መልሶ ሴቶቹን አላቸው። እናንተስ አትፍሩ የተሰቀለውን ኢየሱስን እንድትሹ አውቃለሁና፤

⁶he is not here, for he rose, as he said; come, see the place where the Lord was lying;

⁶እንደ ተናገረ ተነሥቶአልና በዚህ የለም፤ የተኛበትን ስፍራ ኑና እዩ።

⁷and having gone quickly, say ye to his disciples, that he rose from the dead; and lo, he doth go before you to Galilee, there ye shall see him; lo, I have told you.`

⁷ፈጥናችሁም ሂዱና። ከሙታን ተነሣ፥ እነሆም፥ ወደ ገሊላ ይቀድማችኋል በዚያም ታዩታላችሁ ብላችሁ ለደቀ መዛሙርቱ ንገሩአቸው።

⁸And having gone forth quickly from the tomb, with fear and great joy, they ran to tell to his disciples;

⁸እነሆም፥ ነገርኋችሁ። በፍርሃትና በታላቅ ደስታም ፈጥነው ከመቃብር ሄዱ፥ ለደቀ መዛሙርቱም ሊያወሩ ሮጡ።

⁹and as they were going to tell to his disciples, then lo, Jesus met them, saying, `Hail!` and they having come near, laid hold of his feet, and did bow to him.

⁹እነሆም፥ ኢየሱስ አገኛቸውና። ደስ ይበላችሁ አላቸው። እነርሱም ቀርበው እግሩን ይዘው ሰገዱለት።

¹⁰Then saith Jesus to them, `Fear ye not, go away, tell to my brethren that they may go away to Galilee, and there they shall see me.`

¹⁰በዚያን ጊዜ ኢየሱስ። አትፍሩ፤ ሄዳችሁ ወደ ገሊላ እንዲሄዱ ለወንድሞቼ ተናገሩ፥ በዚያም ያዩኛል አላቸው።

¹¹And while they are going on, lo, certain of the watch having come to the city, told to the chief priests all the things that happened,

¹¹ሲሄዱም ሳሉ እነሆ፥ ከጠባቆቹ አንዳንድ ወደ ከተማ መጥተው የሆነውን ሁሉ ለካህናት አለቆች አወሩ።

¹²and having been gathered together with the elders, counsel also having taken, they gave much money to the soldiers,

¹²ከሽማግሎች ጋርም ተሰብስበው ተማከሩና ለጭፍሮች ብዙ ገንዘብ ሰጥተዋቸው።

¹³saying, `Say ye, that his disciples having come by night, stole him — we being asleep;

¹³እኛ ተኝተን ሳለን ደቀ መዛሙርቱ በሌሊት መጥተው ሰረቁት በሉ።

¹⁴and if this be heard by the governor, we will persuade him, and you keep free from anxiety.`

¹⁴ይህም በገዢው ዘንድ የተሰማ እንደ ሆነ፥ እኛ እናስረዳዋለን እናንተም ያለ ሥጋት እንድትሆኑ እናደርጋለን አሉአቸው።

¹⁵And they, having received the money, did as they were taught, and this account was spread abroad among Jews till this day.

¹⁵እነርሱም ገንዘቡን ተቀብለው እንደ አስተማሩአቸው አደረጉ። ይህም ነገር በአይሁድ ዘንድ እስከ ዛሬ ድረስ ሲወራ ይኖራል።

¹⁶And the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mount where Jesus appointed them,

¹⁶አሥራ አንዱ ደቀ መዛሙርት ግን ኢየሱስ ወዳዘዛቸው ተራራ ወደ ገሊላ ሄዱ፥

¹⁷and having seen him, they bowed to him, but some did waver.

¹⁷ባዩትም ጊዜ ሰገዱለት፤ የተጠራጠሩ ግን ነበሩ።

¹⁸And having come near, Jesus spake to them, saying, `Given to me was all authority in heaven and on earth;

¹⁸ኢየሱስም ቀረበና እንዲህ ብሎ ተናገራቸው። ሥልጣን ሁሉ በሰማይና በምድር ተሰጠኝ።

¹⁹having gone, then, disciple all the nations, (baptizing them — to the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,

¹⁹እንግዲህ ሂዱና አሕዛብን ሁሉ በአብ በወልድና በመንፈስ ቅዱስ ስም እያጠመቃችኋቸው፥ ያዘዝኋችሁንም ሁሉ እንዲጠብቁ እያስተማራችኋቸው ደቀ መዛሙርት አድርጓቸው፤ እነሆም እኔ እስከ ዓለም ፍጻሜ ድረስ ሁልጊዜ ከእናንተ ጋር ነኝ።

²⁰teaching them to observe all, whatever I did command you,) and lo, I am with you all the days — till the full end of the age.`
