Mark 16:4-14

Listen to Mark 16:4-14
4 And looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled back— 1it was very large.
5 And 2entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, 3dressed in 4a white robe, and 5they were alarmed.
6 And he said to them, 6“Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen; he is not here. See the place where they laid him.
7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter that 7he is going before you to Galilee. There you will see him, 8just as he told you. ”
8 And they went out and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had seized them, and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid. [Some of the earliest manuscripts do not include 16:9–20. ] [a]
