Matthew 28 – NIV & CCB

New International Version

Matthew 28:1-20

Jesus Has Risen

1After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.

2There 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. 3His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. 4The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.

5The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. 6He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. 7Then 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.”

8So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. 9Suddenly Jesus met them. “Greetings,” he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. 10Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me.”

The Guards’ Report

11While the women were on their way, some of the guards went into the city and reported to the chief priests everything that had happened. 12When the chief priests had met with the elders and devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money, 13telling them, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole him away while we were asleep.’ 14If this report gets to the governor, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.” 15So 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.

The Great Commission

16Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

马太福音 28:1-20

耶稣复活

1安息日刚过,周日黎明时分,抹大拉玛丽亚和另一位玛丽亚一同到坟墓去察看。

2突然,大地剧烈地震动,主的天使从天而降,把墓口的石头滚开,坐在上面。 3他的容貌如闪电,衣裳洁白如雪。 4看守墓穴的卫兵吓得浑身发抖,像死人一样。

5天使对那两个女人说:“不要怕,我知道你们是在找那位被钉十字架的耶稣。 6祂不在这里,正如祂所说的,祂已经复活了。你们来看,这是安放祂的地方。 7现在你们快去告诉祂的门徒,祂已经从死里复活,要先你们一步去加利利,你们将在那里见到祂。记住,我已经告诉你们了。”

8她们听了又害怕又欣喜,连忙离开坟墓,跑去告诉门徒。 9忽然,耶稣迎面而来,对她们说:“愿你们平安!”她们就上前抱住祂的脚敬拜祂。

10耶稣对她们说:“不要害怕。你们去告诉我的弟兄,叫他们到加利利去,他们将在那里见到我。”

行贿造谣

11她们还在赶路的时候,有些守墓的卫兵已经进城把整件事告诉祭司长。 12祭司长和长老聚集商议,决定用重金买通守墓的卫兵,又吩咐他们: 13“你们就说,‘夜里我们熟睡的时候,耶稣的门徒来把祂的尸体偷走了。’ 14如果这件事传到总督那里,我们会跟他解释,保你们无事。” 15守卫收下钱,便依照吩咐去做。于是,这说法在犹太人中一直流传到今天。

大使命

16十一个门徒赶到加利利,到了耶稣和他们约定的山上, 17看到耶稣就敬拜祂,但有些人仍然心存疑惑。 18耶稣上前对门徒说:

“天上地下所有的权柄都交给我了。 19所以,你们要去使万民做我的门徒,奉父、子、圣灵的名给他们施洗, 20教导他们遵守我吩咐你们的一切。记住,我必常与你们同在,一直到世界的末了。”
