Matthew 28:10-16 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

10. Then Jesus said, “Don't be afraid! Tell my followers to go to Galilee. They will see me there.”

11. While the women were on their way, some soldiers who had been guarding the tomb went into the city. They told the chief priests everything that had happened.

12. So the chief priests met with the leaders and decided to bribe the soldiers with a lot of money.

13. They said to the soldiers, “Tell everyone that Jesus' disciples came during the night and stole his body while you were asleep.

14. If the governor hears about this, we will talk to him. You won't have anything to worry about.”

15. The soldiers took the money and did what they were told. Some of the Jewish people still tell each other this story.

16. Jesus' eleven disciples went to a mountain in Galilee, where Jesus had told them to meet him.
