Luke 24:1–12

The Resurrection

^1aBut on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.

²And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb,

³but when they entered, they did not find the body of ^athe Lord Jesus.

⁴While they were perplexed about this, behold, ^atwo men suddenly ^bstood near them in dazzling clothing;

⁵and as the women were terrified and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, “Why do you seek the living One among the dead?

⁶“He is not here, but He ^ahas ¹risen. Remember how He spoke to you ^bwhile He was still in Galilee,

⁷saying that ^athe Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.”

⁸And ^athey remembered His words,

⁹and returned from the tomb and reported all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.

¹⁰Now they were ^aMary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James; also the other women with them were telling these things to ^bthe apostles.

¹¹But these words appeared ¹to them as nonsense, and they ^awould not believe them.

¹²But Peter got up and ^aran to the tomb; stooping and looking in, he saw the linen wrappings ¹only; and he went away ^bto his home, marveling at what had happened.
