Matthew 28:3-7 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

3. He was shining as bright as lightning. His clothes were white as snow.

4. The soldiers guarding the tomb were very frightened of the angel. They shook with fear and then became like dead men.

5. The angel said to the women, “Don’t be afraid. I know that you are looking for Jesus, the one who was killed on the cross.

6. But he is not here. He has risen from death as he said he would. Come and see the place where his body was.

7. And go quickly and tell his followers. Say to them: ‘Jesus has risen from death. He is going into Galilee. He will be there before you. You will see him there.’” Then the angel said, “Now I have told you.”
