     And as they went to tell his disciples, Jesus met them, and said, “All hail.”  
               And they came and held him by the feet, and worshiped him. 
    	Then said Jesus to them, “Be not afraid: go tell my disciples that they should go into Galilee, and there will they see me.”  
    	 Now when they were going, some of the guards came into the city, and told the chief priests all the things that were done. 
    	And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave a lot of money to the soldiers, and said, “Say, His disciples came by night, and stole his body away while we slept. And if this news comes to the governor’s ears, we will persuade him, and secure you.” 
    	So they took the money, and did as they were told: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews even today. 
    	Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had told them about. 
    	And when they saw him, they worshiped him: but some doubted. 
    	And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All power is given unto me in heaven and in the earth.” 
    	 “Go, therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”  
    	After he said this, he was taken up into Heaven in a cloud and they saw him no more. The disciples returned to Jerusalem with great joy because the Lord was working with them and confirming the signs and wonders that they did.
