1
In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
2
And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
3
His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
4
And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
5
And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
6
He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
7
And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.
8
And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
