Come and see the place where the Lord lay, and go immediately and tell his disciples that he is raised from the dead; and behold, he will go before you into Galilee; there shall you see him. Behold, I have told you. And going out immediately from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to tell his disciples. And behold, Jesus also met them, saying, Hail! And they approached him, and took hold of his feet, and worshipped him. Then Jesus said to them, Fear not; go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they shall see me. And as they went, behold, some of the guard came into the city and told the chief priests all the things which had happened.

But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he goes before you to Galilee; there you shall see him as he said to you. And they went out and fled from the tomb; and trembling and amazement seized them; and they said nothing to any one, for they were afraid. AND having arisen early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary the Magdalene from whom he had cast out seven demons. She went and told those who had been with him, who were weeping and lamenting; and when they heard that he was alive, and had been seen by her, they did not believe it.

And while they were in doubt about this, behold, two men stood by them in shining clothing. And [the women] being afraid, and bowing their faces to the earth, they said to them, Why do you seek the living with the dead? He is not here, but is raised. Remember how he told you while he was yet in Galilee, saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of wicked men to be crucified, and on the third day rise again. And they remembered his words; and returning from the tomb related all these things to the eleven, and to all the rest. And they were the Magdalene Mary, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and the others with them, who told these things to the apostles. And their words appeared to them like idle talk; and they believed them not. (Added verse not retained in Sawyer)

AND on the first day of the week, Mary the Magdalene came in the morning, while it was yet dark, to the tomb and saw the stone taken away from the tomb.

Then went Peter and the other disciple, and came to the tomb. read more.
And the two ran together; and the other disciple outran Peter and came first to the tomb, and stooping down saw the bandages lying, but he went not in. Then Simon Peter came following him, and went into the tomb, and beheld the bandages lying, and the napkin which was on his head not lying with the bandages but folded up in a place by itself. Then the other disciple who came first to the tomb also entered in, and saw and believed; for they did not yet know the Scripture, that he must rise from the dead. Then the disciples went away by themselves. But Mary stood at the tomb outside, weeping. Then as she wept she stooped down to the tomb, and saw two angels in white sitting one at the head and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain. And they said to her, Woman, why do you weep? She said to them, Because they have taken my Lord and I know not where they have laid him. Having said these words she turned around and beheld Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, Woman, why do you weep? whom do you seek? She, supposing that he was the gardener, said to him, Sir, if you have borne him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him. Jesus said to her, Mary. She, turning around, said to him in Hebrew, Rabboni, which is interpreted, Teacher. Jesus said to her, Do not touch me; for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers and tell them, I ascend to my Father and your Father, and my God and your God. Mary the Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he said these things to her.
