24 But in one day of the week full early they came to the grave, and brought sweet smelling spices, that they had arrayed [bringing sweet spices, which they had made ready].

And they found the stone turned away from the grave.

And they went in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

And it was done, the while [while] they were astonished in thought of this thing, lo! two men stood beside them in shining cloak[a].

And when they dreaded, and bowed their semblance into the earth, they said to them, What seek ye him that liveth with dead men [What seek ye the living with the dead]?

He is not here, but is risen. Have ye mind, how he spake to you, when he was yet in Galilee,

and said [saying], For it behooveth man's Son to be betaken into the hands of sinful men, and to be crucified, and the third day to rise again.

And they bethought on his words.

And they went again from the grave, and told all these things to the eleven, and to all [the] others.

10 And there was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary of James, and other women that were with them, that said to the apostles these things [that said these things to the apostles].

11 And these words were seen to them as madness [And these words were seen before them as madness], and they believed not to them.

12 But Peter rose up, and ran to the grave; and he bowed down, and saw the linen clothes lying alone. And he went by himself, wondering on that that was done.[b]
