Luke 24:1-12

Jesus Is Raised

1 Now on the first [day] of the week, at very early dawn, they came back to the tomb bringing the fragrant spices which they had prepared.

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

3 but [when they] went in, they did not find the body.

4 And it happened that while they were perplexed about this, behold, two men in gleaming clothing stood near them.

5 And [as] they were terrified and bowed their faces to the ground, they said to them, "Why are you looking for the living among the dead?

6 He is not here, but has been raised! Remember how he spoke to you [while he] was still in Galilee,

7 saying that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of men [who are] sinners, and be crucified, and on the third day rise?"

8 And they remembered his words,

9 and [when they] returned from the tomb, they reported all these [things] to the eleven and to all the rest.

10 Now Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the [mother] of James and the others with them were telling these [things] to the apostles.

11 And these words appeared to them as nonsense, and they refused to believe them.

12 But Peter got up [and] ran to the tomb, and bending over to look, he saw only the [strips of] linen cloth, and he went away to his home wondering what had happened.
