Come, see the place where he lay. 7 Then go quickly and tell his disciples, \u2018He has been raised from the dead, and indeed he is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see him.\u2019 This is my message for you.\u201d 8 So they left the tomb quickly with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples. 9 Suddenly Jesus met them and said, \u201cGreetings!\u201d And they came to him, took hold of his feet, and worshiped him. 10 Then Jesus said to them, \u201cDo not be afraid; go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me.\u201d<br \/>\n11 While they were going, some of the guard went into the city and told the chief priests everything that had happened. 12 After the priests had assembled with the elders, they devised a plan to give a large sum of money to the soldiers, 13 telling them, \u201cYou must say, \u2018His disciples came by night and stole him away while we were asleep.\u2019 14 If this comes to the governor&#8217;s ears, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.\u201d 15 So they took the money and did as they were directed.
