1The first of the sabbaths Mary Magdalene came early to the tomb, darkness still being [on it], and [she] saw the stone taken away from the tomb. 2Then she ran and came to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and said to them, They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid Him. 3Therefore Peter and that other disciple went forth and came to the tomb. 4So they both ran together. And the other disciple outran Peter and came first to the tomb. 5And stooping down he saw the linens lying, yet he did not go in. 6Then Simon Peter came following him and went into the tomb. And he saw the linens lying [there]. 7And the grave-cloth that was on His head [was] not lying with the linens, but was wrapped up in one place by itself. 8Therefore, then, that other disciple also went in, the [one] who came first to the tomb. And he saw and believed. 9For as yet they did not know the Scripture that He must rise again from [the] dead. 10Then the disciples went away again to themselves. 11But Mary stood outside of the tomb, weeping. And as she wept, she stooped down into the tomb. 12And [she] saw two angels in white sitting there, the one at the head and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain. 13And they said to her, Woman, why do you weep? She said to them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him. 14And when she had said this, she turned backward and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know that it was Jesus. 15Jesus said to her, Woman, why do you weep? Whom do you seek? Supposing Him to be the gardener, she said to Him, Sir, if you have carried Him away from here, tell me where you have laid Him and I will take Him away. 16Jesus said to her, Mary! She turned herself and said to Him, Rabboni! (which is to say, Master!) 17Jesus said to her, Do not touch Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father. But go to My brothers and say to them, I ascend to My Father and Your Father, and [to] My God and your God. 18Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord and that He had spoken these things to her. 19Then the same day at evening, being the first of the sabbaths, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, Peace to you! 20And when He had said this, He showed them [His] hands and His side. Then the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord. 21Then Jesus said to them again, Peace to you. As [My] Father has sent Me, even so I send you. 22And when He had said this, He breathed on [them] and said to them, Receive [the] Holy Spirit. 23Of whomever sins you remit, they are remitted to them. Of whomever [sins] you retain, they are retained. 24But Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came. 25The other disciples therefore said to him, We have seen the Lord. But he said to them, Unless I shall see the print of the nails in His hands, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into His side, I will not believe. 26And after eight days the disciples were inside again, and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst and said, Peace to you! 27Then He said to Thomas, Reach your finger here and behold My hands; and reach your hand here and thrust [it] into My side; and do not be unbelieving, but believing. 28And Thomas answered and said to Him, My Lord and my God! 29Jesus said to him, Thomas, because you have seen Me you have believed. Blessed [are] they who have not seen and have believed. 30And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book. 31But these are written so that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you might have life in His name.
