Matthew 28:1-9

¹But after the Sabbath, at the dawning toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb.

²And behold, a great earthquake occurred; for an angel of the Lord, having come down out of heaven, came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat on it.

³And his appearance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow.

⁴And the guards were shaken for fear of him, and became like dead men.

⁵But the angel answered and said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.

⁶He is not here! For He is risen, just as He said. Come; see the place where the Lord was lying.

⁷And go quickly and tell His disciples that He is risen from the dead, and behold, He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see Him. Behold, I have told you.”

⁸And going out quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to report to His disciples.

⁹And as they were going to report to His disciples, that behold, Jesus met them, saying, “Rejoice!” So they came and held His feet and worshiped Him.
