Come, see the place where he was lying. 7 And go quickly, tell his disciples, ‘He has been raised from the dead, and behold, he is going ahead of you into Galilee. You will see him there.’ Behold, I have told you.” 8 And they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ^{▼▼*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“departed”) has been translated as a finite verb} ran to tell his disciples. 9 And behold, Jesus met them, saying, “Greetings!” And they came up and ^{▼▼*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“came up”) has been translated as a finite verb} took hold of his feet and worshiped him. 10 Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid! Go tell my brothers that they should go to Galilee, and there they will see me.”
