¹Baada ya siku ya Sabato, Maria Magdalene, Salome na Maria mama yake Yakobo walinunua manukato ili wakaupake mwili wa Yesu.

¹And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the [mother] of James, and Salome, bought spices, that they might come and anoint him.

²Basi, alfajiri na mapema siku ya Jumapili, jua lilipoanza kuchomoza, walienda kaburini.

²And very early on the first day of the week, they come to the tomb when the sun was risen.

³Nao wakawa wanaambiana, "Nani atakayetuondolea lile jiwe mlangoni mwa kaburi?"

³And they were saying among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the tomb?

⁴Lakini walipotazama, waliona jiwe limekwisha ondolewa. (Nalo lilikuwa kubwa mno.)

⁴and looking up, they see that the stone is rolled back: for it was exceeding great.

⁵Walipoingia kaburini, walimwona kijana mmoja aliyevaa vazi jeupe, ameketi upande wa kulia; wakashangaa sana.

⁵And entering into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, arrayed in a white robe; and they were amazed.

⁶Lakini huyo kijana akawaambia, "Msishangae. Mnamtafuta Yesu wa Nazareti aliyesulubiwa. Amefufuka, hayumo hapa. Tazameni mahali walipokuwa wamemlaza.

⁶And he saith unto them, Be not amazed: ye seek Jesus, the Nazarene, who hath been crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold, the place where they laid him!

⁷Nendeni mkawaambie wanafunzi wake pamoja na Petro ya kwamba anawatangulieni kule Galilaya. Huko mtamwona kama alivyowaambieni."

⁷But go, tell his disciples and Peter, He goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.

⁸Basi, wakatoka pale kaburini mbio, maana walitetemeka kwa hofu na kushangaa. Hawakumwambia mtu yeyote kitu, kwa sababu waliogopa mno.

⁸And they went out, and fled from the tomb; for trembling and astonishment had come upon them: and they said nothing to any one; for they were afraid.

⁹Yesu alipofufuka mapema Jumapili, alijionyesha kwanza kwa Maria Magdalene, ambaye Yesu alikuwa amemtoa pepo saba.

⁹Now when he was risen early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons.

¹⁰Maria Magdalene akaenda, akawajulisha wale waliokuwa pamoja na Yesu, na wakati huo walikuwa wanaomboleza na kulia.

¹⁰She went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.

¹¹Lakini waliposikia ya kwamba Yesu yu hai na kwamba Maria Magdalene amemwona, hawakuamini.

¹¹And they, when they heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, disbelieved.

¹²Baadaye Yesu aliwatokea wanafunzi wawili akiwa na sura nyingine. Wanafunzi hao walikuwa wanakwenda shambani.

¹²And after these things he was manifested in another form unto two of them, as they walked, on their way into the country.

¹³Nao pia wakaenda wakawaambia wenzao. Hata hivyo hawakuamini.

¹³And they went away and told it unto the rest: neither believed they them.

¹⁴Mwishowe, Yesu aliwatokea wanafunzi kumi na mmoja walipokuwa pamoja mezani. Akawakemea sana kwa sababu ya kutoamini kwao na ukaidi wao, maana hawakuwaamini wale waliokuwa wamemwona baada ya kufufuka.

¹⁴And afterward he was manifested unto the eleven themselves as they sat at meat; and he upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them that had seen him after he was risen.

¹⁵Basi, akawaambia, "Nendeni ulimwenguni kote mkahubiri Habari Njema kwa kila mtu.

¹⁵And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation.

¹⁶Anayeamini na kubatizwa ataokolewa; asiyeamini atahukumiwa.

¹⁶He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieveth shall be condemned.

¹⁷Na ishara hizi zitaandamana na wale wanaoamini: kwa jina langu watatoa pepo na watasema kwa lugha mpya.

¹⁷And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues;

¹⁸Wakishika nyoka au wakinywa kitu chochote chenye sumu, hakitawadhuru. Watawawekea wagonjwa mikono, nao watapona."

¹⁸they shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall in no wise hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

¹⁹Basi, Bwana Yesu alipokwisha sema nao, akachukuliwa mbinguni, akaketi upande wa kulia wa Mungu.

¹⁹So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken unto them, was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.

²⁰Wanafunzi wakaenda wakihubiri kila mahali. Bwana akafanya kazi pamoja nao na kuimarisha ujumbe huo kwa ishara zilizoandamana nao.

²⁰And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen.
