Original text and translations

Latin text

Sedit angelus ad sepulchrum Domini stola claritatis conopertus;
videntes eum mulieres nimio terrore nimio terrore perterritae,
astiterunt a longe.

Tunc locutus est angelus et dixit eis:
Nolite metuere, dico vobis, quia illum quem quaeritis mortuum, iam vivit,
et vita hominum cum eo surrexit.
Alleluia.
