Mark 16:6 In-Context

4 But then, looking up, they saw that the stone was already rolled back: for it was of immense size.

5 Upon entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting at their right hand, clothed in a long white robe. They were astonished and terrified.

6 But he said to them, "Do not be terrified. It is Jesus you are looking for--the Nazarene who has been crucified. He has come back to life: He is not here: this is the place where they laid Him.

7 But go and tell His disciples and Peter that He is going before you into Galilee: and that there you will see Him, as He told you."

8 So they came out, and fled from the tomb, for they were greatly agitated and surprised; and they said not a word to any one, for they were afraid.
