John 20:11-23

11ButG1161 MaryG3137 stoodG2476 outsideG1854 theG3588 tombG3419 weepingG2799. And asG5613 she weptG2799, she bent downG3879 to look intoG1519 theG3588 tombG3419, 12andG2532 she sawG2334 twoG1417 angelsG32 inG1722 whiteG3022 sittingG2516 whereG3699 theG3588 bodyG4983 of JesusG2424 had lainG2749, oneG1520 atG4314 theG3588 headG2776 andG2532 the other atG4314 theG3588 feetG4228.

13“WomanG1135, whyG5101 are you weepingG2799?” theyG1565 askedG3004.

“BecauseG3754 they have takenG142 myG1473 Lord awayG2962,” she saidG3004G846, “andG2532 I do not knowG3756G1492 whereG4226 they have putG5087 HimG846.”

14When she had saidG2036 thisG3778, she turnedG4762G1519 aroundG3694 andG2532 sawG2334 JesusG2424 standingG2476 there. But she did not recognizeG3756G1492 thatG3754 it wasG1510 JesusG2424.

15“WomanG1135, whyG5101 are you weepingG2799?” JesusG2424 askedG3004. “WhomG5101 are you seekingG2212?”

ThinkingG1380 He wasG1510 theG3588 gardenerG2780, sheG1565 saidG3004G846, “SirG2962, ifG1487 youG4771 have carried Him offG941G846, tellG2036 meG1473 whereG4226 you have putG5087 HimG846, and IG2504 will get HimG142G846.”

16JesusG2424 saidG3004 to herG846, “MaryG3137.”

SheG1565 turnedG4762 and saidG3004 to HimG846 in HebrewG1447,1 “RabboniG4462!” (whichG3739 meansG3004 “TeacherG1320”).

17“Do notG3361 cling toG680 MeG1473,” JesusG2424 saidG3004, “forG1063 I have not yet ascendedG3768G305 toG4314 theG3588 FatherG3962. ButG1161 goG4198 andG2532 tellG2036 MyG1473 brothersG80, ‘I am ascendingG305 toG4314 MyG1473 FatherG3962 andG2532 yourG4771 FatherG3962, to MyG1473 GodG2316 andG2532 yourG4771 GodG2316.’”

18MaryG3137 MagdaleneG3094 wentG2064 and announcedG518 to theG3588 disciplesG3101, “I have seenG3708 theG3588 LordG2962!” AndG2532 she told them what He had saidG2036 to herG846.

19

It wasG1510 theG3588 firstG1520 dayG2250 of the weekG4521, and that veryG1565 eveningG3798, whileG3699 theG3588 disciplesG3101 wereG1510 together withG2532 theG3588 doorsG2374 lockedG2808 forG1223 fearG5401 of theG3588 JewsG2453, JesusG2424 cameG2064 andG2532 stoodG2476 among themG1519G3588G3319. “PeaceG1515 be with youG4771!” He saidG3004 to themG846. 20After He had saidG2036 thisG3778, He showedG1166 themG846 HisG3588 handsG5495 andG2532 HisG3588 sideG4125.

TheG3588 disciplesG3101 rejoicedG5463 when they sawG3708 theG3588 LordG2962.

21

AgainG3825 JesusG2424 saidG2036 to themG846, “PeaceG1515 be with youG4771. AsG2531 theG3588 FatherG3962 has sent MeG649G1473, so also IG2504 am sendingG3992 youG4771.” 22When He had saidG2036 thisG3778, He breathed onG1720 them andG2532 saidG3004G846, “ReceiveG2983 the HolyG40 SpiritG4151. 23IfG302 you forgiveG863 anyone hisG5100 sinsG266, they are forgivenG863G846; ifG302 you withholdG2902 forgiveness from anyoneG5100, it is withheldG2902.”
