great Earthquak[e]; for the <​two​> Angel<​s​> of the Lord decended from heaven, & came & rolled back the stone from the door, & set <​sat​> upon it. & <​and​> his <​their​> countenance was as <​like​> lightning, & his <​their​> raiment white as snow. & <​And​> for fear of him <​them​> the keepers did shake, & became as though they were dead. & <​And​> the Angel<​s​> ansered & said unto the women, Fear not ye; for I <​we​> know that ye seek Jesus who was crusified. He is not here; for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay; & go quickly & tell his Deciples <​that​> he is risen from the dead; & <​And,​> <​Behold,​> he goeth before you into gallilee; there shall ye see him; Lo! I <​3/​> have told you. <​3/​> & they departed quickly from the Sepulchre, with fear & great Joy; & did run to bring his Deciples word. & <​And​> as they went to tell his D[i]ciples, <​behold​> Jesus met them, saying, All hail! & They came & held him by the feet, & worshiped him.

great Earthquake; for two Angels of the Lord decended from heaven, & came & rolled back the stone from the door, & sat upon it. & and their countenance was like lightning, & their raiment white as snow. & And for fear of them the keepers did shake, & became as though they were dead. And the Angels ansered & said unto the women, Fear not ye; for we know that ye seek Jesus who was crusified. He is not here; for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay; & go quickly & tell his Deciples that he is risen from the dead; & And, Behold, he goeth before you into gallilee; there shall ye see him; Lo! I 3/ have told you. 3/ & they departed quickly from the Sepulchre, with fear & great Joy; & did run to bring his Deciples word. And as they went to tell his Diciples, behold Jesus met them, saying, All hail! They came & held him by the feet, & worshiped him. Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid; go tell my brethren that they go into 4/ Gallilee, & there shall they see me. 4/ Now when they were going, Behold some of the watch came into the City, & shewed unto the chief Priests all the things that were done. & And when they were assembelled with the Elders, & had taken council, they gave large money unto the Soldiers, saying, Say ye, his Deciples came by night, & stole him while we slept. And if this come to the governors ears, we will persuade him, & secure you. So they took the money, & did as they were taught; & this saying is commonly reported among 5/ the Jews untill this day. 5/ Then the Eleven Deciples went away into Gallilee, into a Mountain where Jesus had appointed them, And when they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 6 And Jesus came & spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto them saying me in heaven, & on earth. Go ye therefore; & teach all Nations, baptizing them in the name of the father, & of the Son, & of the Holy Ghost; teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; &, Lo, I am with you always unto the end of the World. Amen.
