The Scriptures 1998

Matthew 28:8-15 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

8. And they left the tomb quickly, with fear and great joy, and ran to report to His taught ones.

9. And as they were going to report to His taught ones, see, יהושע met them, saying, “Greetings!” And they came and held Him by the feet and did bow to Him.

10. Then יהושע said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go, report to My brothers, to go to Galil, and they shall see Me there.”

11. And while they were going, see, some of the watch having gone into the city, reported to the chief priests all that took place.

12. And when they came together with the elders and taken counsel, they gave enough silver to the soldiers,

13. saying, “Say that His taught ones came at night and stole Him away while we slept.

14. “And if this should be reported to the governor, we shall win him over and keep you out of trouble.”

15. And having taken the silver they did as they were instructed. And this account was widely spread among the Yehuḏim, to this day.
