⁵ The angel told the women, “Don’t be afraid, because I know you are looking for Jesus who was crucified.^{(A) 6} He is not here. For he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.^{(B) 7} Then go quickly and tell his disciples,^(C) ‘He has risen from the dead and indeed he is going ahead of you to Galilee; you will see him there.’ Listen, I have told you.”^(D)

⁸ So, departing quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to tell his disciples the news.

⁵ When^(A) they entered the tomb,^(B) they saw a young man^(C) dressed^(D) in a white^(E) robe sitting on the right side; they were alarmed. ⁶ “Don’t be alarmed,” he told them. “You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth,^(F) who was crucified. He has risen!^(G) He is not here. See the place where they put him. ⁷ But go, tell his disciples and Peter,^(H) ‘He is going ahead of you to Galilee;^(I) you will see him there just as he told you.’”

⁸ They went out and ran from the tomb,^(J) because trembling and astonishment overwhelmed them. And they said nothing to anyone,^(K) since they were afraid.

³ They went in but did not find the body^(A) of the Lord Jesus.^{(B) 4} While they were perplexed about this, suddenly two men stood by them in dazzling^(C) clothes. ⁵ So the women were terrified and bowed down to the ground.

“Why are you looking for the living among the dead?” asked the men. ⁶ “He is not here, but he has risen!^(D) Remember how he spoke to you when he was still in Galilee,^{(E) 7} saying, ‘It is necessary that the Son of Man be betrayed^(F) into the hands of sinful men, be crucified, and rise^(G) on the third day’?” ⁸ And they remembered his words.
