King James Bible of 1611: 1   Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.
2   And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.
3   And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
4   And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:
5   And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?
6   He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,
7   Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
8   And they remembered his words,
9   And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.

NAS Bible of 1960:  1 But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.
2   And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb,
3   but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.
4   While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men suddenly stood near them in dazzling clothing;
5   and as the women were terrified and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, "Why do you seek the living One among the dead?
6   "He is not here, but He has risen. Remember how He spoke to you while He was still in Galilee,
7   saying that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again."
8   And they remembered His words,
9   and returned from the tomb and reported all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.

NIV Bible 1973-78: 1 On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. 2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, 3 but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. 4 While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. 5 In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, "Why do you look for the living among the dead? 6 He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: 7 'The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.' " 8 Then they remembered his words.
9 When they came back from the tomb, they told all these things to the Eleven and to all the others.
