Tyndale New Testament

Mat 28:1–8

1 The Sabboth daye at even which dauneth the morowe after the Sabboth Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to se the sepulcre.
2 And beholde ther was a greate erth quake. For the angell of the lorde descended from heven: and came and rowlled backe the stone from the dore and sate apon it.
3 His countenaunce was lyke lyghtnynge and his raymet whyte as snowe.
4 And for feare of him the kepers were astunnyed and became as deed men.
5 The angell answered and sayde to the wemen feare ye not. I knowe that ye seke Iesus which was crucified:
6 he is not here: he is rysen as he sayde. Come and se the place where the lorde was put:
7 and goo quickly and tell his disciples that he is rysen from deeth. And beholde he will go before you into Galile there ye shall se him. Lo I have tolde you.
8 And they departed quickly from the sepulcre with feare and greate Ioye: and did runne to bringe his disciples worde.

1 And when the saboth daye was past Mary Magdalen and Mary Iacobi and Salome bought odures that they myght come and anoynt him.
2 And erly in the morninge the nexte daye after the saboth day they came vnto the sepulcre when the sunne was rysen.
3 And they sayd one to another: who shall rolle vs awaye the stone from the dore of the sepulcre:
4 And when they looked they sawe how the stone was rolled awaye: for it was a very greate one.
5 And they went into the sepulcre and sawe a yonge man syttinge on the ryght syde cloothed in a longe whyte garmet and they were abasshed.
6 And he sayd vnto the be not afrayed: ye seke Iesus of Nazareth which was crucified. He is rysen he is not here. Beholde the place where they put him.
7 But go youre waye and tell his disciples and namely Peter: he will goo before you into Galile: there shall ye se him as he sayde vnto you.
8 And they went oute quickly and fleed from the sepulcre. For they trembled and were amased. Nether sayd they eny thinge to eny man for they were afrayed.

1 On the morowe after the saboth erly in the morninge they came vnto the toumbe and brought the odoures which they had prepared and other wemen with them
2 And they founde the stone rouled awaye from the sepulcre
3 and went in: but founde not the body of the Lorde Iesu.
4 And it happened as they were amased therat: Beholde two men stode by them in shynynge vestures.
5 And as they were a frayde and bowed doune their faces to the erth: they sayd to them: why seke ye the lyvinge amonge the deed?
6 He is not here: but is rysen. Remember how he spake vnto you when he was yet with you in Galile
7 sayinge: that the sonne of man must be delyvered into the hondes of synfull men and be crucified and the thyrde daye ryse agayne.
8 And they remembred his wordes
9 and returned from the sepulcre and tolde all these thinges vnto the eleven and to all the remanaunt.
10 It was Mary Magdalen and Ioanna and Mary Iacobi and other that were with the which tolde these thinges vnto the Apostles
11 and their wordes semed vnto them fayned thinges nether beleved they them.
12 Then aroose Peter and ran vnto the sepulcre and stouped in and sawe the lynnen cloothes layde by them selfe and departed wondrynge in him selfe at that which had happened.

1 The morow after the saboth daye came Mary Magdalene erly when it was yet darcke vnto the sepulcre and sawe the stone taken awaye from the toumbe.
2 Then she ranne and came to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whome Iesus loved and sayde vnto them. They have taken awaye the Lorde out of the toumbe and we cannot tell where they have layde him.
3 Peter went forth and that other disciple and came vnto the sepulcre.
4 They ranne bothe to gether and that other disciple dyd out runne Peter and came fyrst to the sepulcre.
5 And he stouped doune and sawe the lynnen clothes lyinge yet wet he not in.
6 Then came Simon Peter folowynge him and went into the sepulcre and sawe the lynnen clothes lye
7 and the napkyn that was aboute his heed not lyinge with the lynnen clothe but wrapped togeder in a place by it selfe.
8 Then went in also that other disciple which came fyrst to the sepulcre and he sawe and beleved.
9 For as yet they knew not the scriptures that he shuld ryse agayne from deeth.
10 And the disciples wet awaye agayne vnto their awne home.
