¹And on the eve of the sabbaths, at the dawn, toward the first of the sabbaths, came Mary the Magdalene, and the other Mary, to see the sepulchre, ²and lo, there came a great earthquake, for a messenger of the Lord, having come down out of heaven, having come, did roll away the stone from the door, and was sitting upon it, ³and his countenance was as lightning, and his clothing white as snow, ⁴and from the fear of him did the keepers shake, and they became as dead men. ⁵And the messenger answering said to the women, ‘Fear not ye, for I have known that Jesus, who hath been crucified, ye seek; ⁶he is not here, for he rose, as he said; come, see the place where the Lord was lying; ⁷and having gone quickly, say ye to his disciples, that he rose from the dead; and lo, he doth go before you to Galilee, there ye shall see him; lo, I have told you.’ ⁸And having gone forth quickly from the tomb, with fear and great joy, they ran to tell to his disciples; ⁹and as they were going to tell to his disciples, then lo, Jesus met them, saying, ‘Hail!’ and they having come near, laid hold of his feet, and did bow to him. ¹⁰Then saith Jesus to them, ‘Fear ye not, go away, tell to my brethren that they may go away to Galilee, and there they shall see me.’
