24 And on the first of the sabbaths, at early dawn, they came to the tomb, bearing the spices they made ready, and certain [others] with them,

² and they found the stone having been rolled away from the tomb,

³ and having gone in, they found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

⁴ And it came to pass, while they are perplexed about this, that lo, two men stood by them in glittering apparel,

⁵ and on their having become afraid, and having inclined the face to the earth, they said to them, `Why do ye seek the living with the dead?

⁶ he is not here, but was raised; remember how he spake to you, being yet in Galilee,

⁷ saying -- It behoveth the Son of Man to be delivered up to the hands of sinful men, and to be crucified, and the third day to rise again.'

⁸ And they remembered his sayings,

⁹ and having turned back from the tomb told all these things to the eleven, and to all the rest.

¹⁰ And it was the Magdalene Mary, and Joanna, and Mary of James, and the other women with them, who told unto the apostles these things,

¹¹ and their sayings appeared before them as idle talk, and they were not believing them.

¹² And Peter having risen, did run to the tomb, and having stooped down he seeth the linen clothes lying alone, and he went away to his own home, wondering at that which was come to pass.
