Matthew 28:4-14

4 And for fear of him the guards trembled and became as dead men.

5 And the angel answering said to the women, Fear not *ye*, for I know that ye seek Jesus the crucified one.

6 He is not here, for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

7 And go quickly and say to his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and behold, he goes before you into Galilee, there shall ye see him. Behold, I have told you.

8 And going out quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to bring his disciples word.

9 And as they went to bring his disciples word, behold also, Jesus met them, saying, Hail! And they coming up took him by the feet, and did him homage.

10 Then Jesus says to them, Fear not; go, bring word to my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there they shall see me.

11 And as they went, behold, some of the watch went into the city, and brought word to the chief priests of all that had taken place.

12 And having assembled with the elders, and having taken counsel, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers,

13 saying, Say that his disciples coming by night stole him [while] we [were] sleeping.

14 And if this should come to the hearing of the governor, *we* will persuade him, and save *you* from all anxiety.
