Matthew 28:6
4 The guards trembled in fear of him and became like dead men.
5 But the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.
He is not here; He has risen, just as He said! Come, see the place where He lay.
7 Then go quickly and tell His disciples, ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see Him.’ See, I have told you.”
8 So they hurried away from the tomb in fear and great joy, and ran to tell His disciples.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
