1. Now after the Sabbath, at the dawning on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to view the tomb.
2. And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came up and rolled away the stone and sat down on it.
3. Now his appearance was like lightning and his clothing white as snow.
4. And the guards trembled from the fear of him and became like dead men.
5. But the angel answered and said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.
6. He is not here, for he has been raised, just as he said. Come, see the place where he was lying.
7. And go quickly, tell his disciples, ‘He has been raised from the dead, and behold, he is going ahead of you into Galilee. You will see him there.’ Behold, I have told you.”
