8. With great fear and excitement, they hurried away from the tomb and ran to tell his disciples.
9. But Jesus met them and greeted them. They came and grabbed his feet and worshipped him.
10. Then Jesus said to them, "Don’t be afraid. Go and tell my brothers that I am going into Galilee. They will see me there."
11. Now as the women were on their way, some of the guards came into the city and told the chief priests everything that had happened.
12. They met with the elders and decided to give a large sum of money to the soldiers.
13. They told them, "Say that Jesus’ disciples came at night and stole his body while you were sleeping.
14. And if the governor hears about this, we will take care of it with him so you will have nothing to worry about."
15. So the soldiers took the money and did as they were told. And this report has spread throughout all Judea to this very day.
16. Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus told them to go.
