3 Y decían entre sí: ¿Quién nos revolverá la piedra de la puerta del sepulcro?

They said to themselves, “Who will roll the stone away from the door of the grave for us?”

He said, “Do not be afraid. You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth Who was nailed to a cross. He is risen! He is not here! See, here is the place where they laid Him.

7 M as id, decid á sus discípulos y á Pedro, que él va antes que vosotros á Galilea: allí le veréis, como os dijo.

Go and tell His followers and Peter that He is going ahead of you into Galilee. You will see Him there as He told you.”

8 Y ellas se fueron huyendo del sepulcro; porque las había tomado temblor y espanto; ni decían nada á nadie, porque tenían miedo.

They ran from the grave shaking and were surprised. They did not say anything to anyone because they were afraid. The Followers of Jesus Do Not Believe He Was Raised from the Dead

She went and told His followers. They were crying because of much sorrow.

11 Y ellos como oyeron que vivía, y que había sido visto de ella, no lo creyeron.

But they did not believe her when she said she had seen Him alive.

12 M as después apareció en otra forma á dos de ellos que iban caminando, yendo al campo.

13 Y ellos fueron, y lo hicieron saber á los otros; y ni aun á éllos creyeron.

They went and told it to the others. The others did not believe them.

14 F inalmente se apareció á los once mismos, estando sentados á la mesa, y censuróles su incredulidad y dureza de corazón, que no hubiesen creído á los que le habían visto resucitado.

Later He was seen by the eleven followers as they were eating. He spoke to them with sharp words because they did not believe and their hearts were hard. And they did not believe the others who had seen Him since He had been raised from the dead. Jesus Sends His Followers to Preach

These special powerful works will be done by those who have put their trust in Me. In My name they will put out demons. They will speak with languages they have never learned.

They will pick up snakes. If they drink any poison, it will not hurt them. They will put their hands on the sick and they will be healed.”
