Matthew 28:10–20

¹⁰Then Jesus said to them,“Don’t be afraid. Go tell my brothers that they should go into Galilee, and there they will see me.”↗

¹¹Now while they were going, behold, some of the guards came into the city and told the chief priests all the things that had happened.↗

¹²When they were assembled with the elders and had taken counsel, they gave a large amount of silver to the soldiers,↗

¹³saying, “Say that his disciples came by night and stole him away while we slept.↗

¹⁴If this comes to the governor’s ears, we will persuade him and make you free of worry.”↗

¹⁵So they took the money and did as they were told. This saying was spread abroad among the Jews, and continues until today.↗

¹⁶But the eleven disciples went into Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had sent them.↗

¹⁷When they saw him, they bowed down to him; but some doubted.↗

¹⁸Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying,“All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.↗

¹⁹Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,↗

²⁰teaching them to observe all things that I commanded you. Behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”Amen.↗
