EVANGELO DI S. MATTEO 28

La risurrezione di Gesù

(Mar. 16.1-8. Luc. 24.1-12. Giov. 20.1-18)

1 ORA, finita la settimana, quando il primo giorno della settimana cominciava a schiarire, Maria Maddalena, e l'altra Mariat, vennero a vedere il sepolcro.
2 Ed ecco, si fece un gran tremoto, perciocchè un angelo del Signoret, sceso dal cielo, venne, e rotolò la pietrat dall'apertura del sepolcro, e si pose a seder sopra essa. 3 E il suo aspetto era come un folgore, e il suo vestimento era bianco come neve.

4 E per timor d'esso, le guardie tremarono, e divennero come morti.
5 Ma l'angelo fece motto alle donne, e disse loro: Voi, non temiate; perciocchè io so che cercate Gesù, il quale è stato crocifisso. 6 Egli non è qui, perciocchè egli è risuscitato, come egli avea dettot; venite, vedete il luogo dove il Signore giaceva.

7 E andate prestamente, e dite a'~suoi discepoli ch'egli è risuscitato dai morti; ed ecco, egli va innanzi a voi in Galileat; quivi lo vedrete; ecco, io ve l'ho detto.
8 Esse adunque uscirono prestamente del monumento, con ispavento, ed allegrezza grande; e corsero a rapportar la cosa a'~discepoli di esso. 9 Ed ecco, Gesù venne loro incontrot, dicendo: Ben vi sia. Ed esse, accostatesi gli presero i piedi, e l'adoraronot.

10 Allora Gesù disse loro: Non temiate; andate, rapportate a'~miei fratellit, che vadano in Galileat, e che quivi mi vedranno.

Il dire de'~Giudei

15 Ed essi, presi i danari, fecero come erano stati ammaestrati; e quel dire è stato divolgato fra i Giudei, infino al dì d'oggi.

L'apparizione di Gesù in Galilea

17 E vedutolo, l'adoraronot; ma pure alcuni dubitarono.
18 E Gesù, accostatosi, parlò loro, dicendo: Ogni podestà mi è data in cielo, ed in terrat. 19 Andate adunque, ed ammaestrate tutti i popolit; battezzandolit nel nome del Padre, e del Figliuolo, e dello Spirito Santo; 20 insegnando loro di osservare tutte le cose che io vi ho comandate. Or ecco, io son con voit in ogni tempo, infino alla fin del mondo. Amen.

Matthew 28

The Resurrection

1 Now 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 Suddenly there was a severe earthquake, for an angel of the Lordt descending from heaven came and rolled away the stone and sat on it.3 Hist appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow.4 Thet guards were shaken and became like dead men because they were so afraid of him.5 But the angel saidt to the women, “Do not be afraid; I knowt that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.s6 He is not here, for he has been raised,t just as he said. Come and see the place where hes was lying.7 Then go quickly and tell his disciples, ‘He has been raised from the dead. Het is going ahead of you into Galilee. You will see him there.’ Listen, I have told you!”8 Sot they left the tomb quickly, with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples.9 Butt Jesus met them, saying, “Greetings!” Theyt came to him, held on to his feet and worshiped him.

10 Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee. They will see me there.”

The Guards’ Report

11 Whilet they were going, somet of the guard went into the city and told the chief priests everything that had happened.12 Aftert they had assembled with the elders and formed a plan, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers,13 telling them, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came at night and stole his bodyt while we were asleep.’14 Ift this matter is heard before the governor,t we will satisfy hims and keep you out of trouble.”t

15 So they took the money and did as they were instructed. And this story is told among the Jews to this day.s

The Great Commission

16 Sot the eleven disciples went to Galilee to the mountain Jesus had designated.17 Whent they saw him, they worshiped him,t but some doubted.t18 Then Jesus came up and said to them,t “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.19 Therefore got and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,s

20 teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And remember,t I am with yous always, to the end of the age.”s
