In Matthew 28:5, the ESV has the word ὑμεῖς, as being part of the phrase "do not be afraid" whereas the NIV has it as being part of the phrase "I know that you are looking for Jesus"

The ESV seems more consistent with the flow of the Greek text and also with some commentaries I have checked.

Is the alignment incorrect in the NIV or is something else going on here that I don't understand?

Thanks.
