Come, see the place where He was lying. 7\u00a0And go quickly and tell His disciples that He has risen from the dead; and behold, He is going ahead of you to Galilee. There you will see Him; behold, I have told you.&#8221; 8\u00a0And they left the tomb quickly with fear and great joy, and ran to report to His disciples. 9\u00a0And behold, Jesus met them and said, &#8220;Rejoice!&#8221; And they came up and took hold of His feet, and worshiped Him. 10\u00a0Then Jesus said to them, &#8220;Do not be afraid; go, bring word to My brothers to leave for Galilee, and there they will see Me.&#8221;
