Luke 24:2-12

2 And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb,

3 but when they entered, they did not find the body of ¹the Lord Jesus.

4 While they were perplexed about this, behold, ²two men suddenly ³stood near them in dazzling clothing;

5 and as the women were terrified and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, "Why do you seek the living One among the dead?

6 "He is not here, but He ⁴has risen. Remember how He spoke to you ⁵while He was still in Galilee,

7 saying that ⁶the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again."

8 And ⁷they remembered His words,

9 and returned from the tomb and reported all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.

10 Now they were ⁸Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James; also the other women with them were telling these things to ⁹the apostles.

11 But these words appeared to them as nonsense, and they ¹⁰would not believe them.

12 But Peter got up and ¹¹ran to the tomb; stooping and looking in, he saw the linen wrappings only; and he went away ¹²to his home, marveling at what had happened.
