John 20:2-8

2So she ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple (John), whom Jesus loved (esteemed), and said to them, “They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid Him!”

3So Peter and the other disciple left, and they were going to the tomb.

4And the two were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and arrived at the tomb first.

5Stooping down and looking in, he saw the linen wrappings [neatly] lying there; but he did not go in.

6Then Simon Peter came up, following him, and went into the tomb and saw the linen wrappings [neatly] lying there;

7and the [burial] face-cloth which had been on Jesus’ head, not lying with the [other] linen wrappings, but rolled up in a place by itself.

8So the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, went in too; and he saw [the wrappings and the face-cloth] and believed [without any doubt that Jesus had risen from the dead].
