2aVery early in the morning, on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.
3 And they said among themselves, “Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?”
4 But when they looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away—for it was very large.
5aAnd entering the tomb, they saw a young man clothed in a long white robe sitting on the right side; and they were alarmed.
6aBut he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid Him.
7 But go, tell His disciples—and Peter—that He is going1 before you into Galilee; there you will see Him, aas He said to you.”
8 So they went out1 quickly and fled from the tomb, for they trembled and were amazed. aAnd they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.
