John 20:1-17

11NowG1161 on the firstG1520 day of the weekG4521 2MaryG3137 MagdaleneG3094 cameG2064 earlyG4404 to the tombG3419, while it was stillG2089 darkG4653, and sawG991 3the stoneG3037 already removedG142 from the tombG3419. 2SoG3767 she ranG5143 and cameG2064 to SimonG4613 PeterG4074 and to the otherG243 4discipleG3101 whomG3739 JesusG2424 lovedG5368, and saidG3004 to them, “5They have takenG142 the LordG2962 from the tombG3419, and we do not knowG3609 whereG4226 they have putG5087 Him.” 36SoG3767 PeterG4074 and the otherG243 discipleG3101 leftG1831, and they were goingG2064 to the tombG3419. 4The twoG1417 were runningG5143 togetherG3674; and the otherG243 discipleG3101 ranG4390 aheadG4390, fasterG5036 than PeterG4074, and cameG2064 to the tombG3419 firstG4413; 5and he 7stoopedG3879 toG3879 lookG3879 in, and sawG991 the 8linenG3608 wrappingsG3608 lyingG2749 there; howeverG3305 he did not goG1525 inG1525. 6SoG3767 SimonG4613 PeterG4074 alsoG2532 cameG2064, followingG190 him, and he enteredG1525 the tombG3419; and he lookedG2334 at the linenG3608 wrappingsG3608 lyingG2749 there, 7and 9the face-clothG4676 whichG3739 had beenG1510 on His headG2776, not lyingG2749 with the 10linenG3608 wrappingsG3608 but foldedG1794 upG1794 in a placeG5117 byG5565 itselfG5565. 8SoG3767 the otherG243 discipleG3101 who 11had firstG4413 comeG2064 to the tombG3419 alsoG2532 enteredG1525 thenG5119, and he sawG3708 and believedG4100. 9For 12they did not yetG3764 understandG3609 the ScriptureG1124, 13that He mustG1163 riseG450 from the deadG3498. 10SoG3767 the disciplesG3101 wentG565 awayG565 againG3825 14to their ownG848 homes.

1115But MaryG3137 was standingG2476 outsideG1854 the tombG3419, weepingG2799; soG3767 as she weptG2799, she 16stoopedG3879 toG3879 lookG3879 into the tombG3419; 12and she sawG2334 17twoG1417 angelsG32 in whiteG3022 sittingG2516, oneG1520 at the headG2776 and oneG1520 at the feetG4228, whereG3699 the bodyG4983 of JesusG2424 had been lyingG2749. 13And they saidG3004 to her, “18WomanG1135, whyG5101 are you weepingG2799?” She saidG3004 to them, “BecauseG3754 19they have takenG142 awayG142 my LordG2962, and I do not knowG3609 whereG4226 they putG5087 Him.” 14When she had saidG3004 thisG3778, she turnedG4762 aroundG3694 and 20sawG2334 JesusG2424 standingG2476 there, and yet she 21did not knowG3609 that it was JesusG2424. 15JesusG2424 saidG3004 to her, “22WomanG1135, whyG5101 are you weepingG2799? WhomG5101 are you seekingG2212?” ThinkingG1380 that He was the gardenerG2780, she saidG3004 to Him, “SirG2962, ifG1487 you have carriedG941 Him awayG941, tellG3004 me whereG4226 you putG5087 Him, and I will takeG142 Him awayG142.” 16JesusG2424 saidG3004 to her, “MaryG3137!” She turnedG4762 and saidG3004 to Him 23in 24HebrewG1447, “25RabboniG4462!” (whichG3739 meansG3004, TeacherG1320). 17JesusG2424 saidG3004 to her, “StopG3361 clingingG681 to Me, for I have not yetG3768 ascendedG305 to the FatherG3962; but goG4198 to 26My brothersG80 and sayG3004 to them, ‘I am 27ascendingG305 to My FatherG3962 and your FatherG3962, and My GodG2316 and your GodG2316.’”
