ESV

1	Now after the Sabbath, toward the dawn of the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb.
2	And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone and sat on it.
3	His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow.
4	And for fear of him the guards trembled and became like dead men.
5	But the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.
6	He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.
7	Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and behold, he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him. See, I have told you.“
8	So they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples.
9	And behold, Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!” And they came up and took hold of his feet and worshiped him.
10	Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid; go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.”
11	While they were going, behold, some of the guard went into the city and told the chief priests all that had taken place.
12	And when they had assembled with the elders and taken counsel, they gave a sufficient sum of money to the soldiers
13	and said, “Tell people, 'His disciples came by night and stole him away while we were asleep.'
14	And if this comes to the governor's ears, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.“
15	So they took the money and did as they were directed. And this story has been spread among the Jews to this day.
16	Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them.
17	And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted.
18	And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
19	Go 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 that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.“

NIV

1	After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.
2	There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it.
3	His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow.
4	The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.
5	The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.
6	He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.
7	Then go quickly and tell his disciples: 'He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.' Now I have told you.“
8	So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples.
9	Suddenly Jesus met them. “Greetings,” he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him.
10	Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me.”
11	While the women were on their way, some of the guards went into the city and reported to the chief priests everything that had happened.
12	When the chief priests had met with the elders and devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money,
13	telling them, “You are to say, 'His disciples came during the night and stole him away while we were asleep.'
14	If this report gets to the governor, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.“
15	So the soldiers took the money and did as they were instructed. And this story has been widely circulated among the Jews to this very day.
16	Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go.
17	When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted.
18	Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
19	Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
20	and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.“

NLT

1	Early on Sunday morning, as the new day was dawning, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went out to visit the tomb.
2	Suddenly there was a great earthquake! For an angel of the Lord came down from heaven, rolled aside the stone, and sat on it.
3	His face shone like lightning, and his clothing was as white as snow.
4	The guards shook with fear when they saw him, and they fell into a dead faint.
5	Then the angel spoke to the women. “Don't be afraid!” he said. “I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.
6	He isn't here! He is risen from the dead, just as he said would happen. Come, see where his body was lying.
7	And now, go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and he is going ahead of you to Galilee. You will see him there. Remember what I have told you.“
8	The women ran quickly from the tomb. They were very frightened but also filled with great joy, and they rushed to give the disciples the angel's message.
9	And as they went, Jesus met them and greeted them. And they ran to him, grasped his feet, and worshiped him.
10	Then Jesus said to them, “Don't be afraid! Go tell my brothers to leave for Galilee, and they will see me there.”
11	As the women were on their way, some of the guards went into the city and told the leading priests what had happened.
12	A meeting with the elders was called, and they decided to give the soldiers a large bribe.
13	They told the soldiers, “You must say, 'Jesus' disciples came during the night while we were sleeping, and they stole his body.'
14	If the governor hears about it, we'll stand up for you so you won't get in trouble.“
15	So the guards accepted the bribe and said what they were told to say. Their story spread widely among the Jews, and they still tell it today.
16	Then the eleven disciples left for Galilee, going to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go.
17	When they saw him, they worshiped him– but some of them doubted!
18	Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth.
19	Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
20	Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.“

KJV

1	In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
2	And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
3	His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
4	And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
5	And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
6	He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
7	And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.
8	And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
9	And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.
10	Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.
11	Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done.
12	And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,
13	Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept.
14	And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and secure you.
15	So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.
16	Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
17	And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.
18	And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19	Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20	Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
