1

Now late on the Sabbath, when the dawn of the first day of the week was near, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the place where his body was.

2

And there was a great earth-shock for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, rolling back the stone, took his seat on it.

3

His form was shining like the light, and his clothing was white as snow:

4

And for fear of him the watchmen were shaking, and became as dead men.

5

And the angel said to the women, Have no fear: for I see that you are searching for Jesus, who was put to death on the cross.

6

He is not here, for he has come to life again, even as he said. Come, see the Lord's resting-place.

7

And go quickly and give his disciples the news that he has come back from the dead, and is going before you into Galilee there you will see him, as I have said to you.

8

And they went away quickly, with fear and great joy, to give his disciples the news.

9

And on the way, Jesus came to them, saying, Be glad. And they came and put their hands on his feet, and gave him worship.

10

Then said Jesus to them, Have no fear: go and give word to my brothers to go into Galilee, and there they will see me.
