1On the first day of the week, early in the morning and while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and noticed that the stone had been removed from the tomb.

1On the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark. She saw that the stone had been removed from the tomb.

2So she ran off and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, whom Jesus kept loving. She told them, "They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don't know where they have put him!"

2So she went running to Simon Peter and to the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, and said to them, "They've taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don't know where they've put him!"

3So Peter and the other disciple took off for the tomb.

3At that, Peter and the other disciple went out, heading for the tomb.

4The two of them were running together, but the other disciple ran faster than Peter and came to the tomb first.

4The two were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and got to the tomb first.

5Bending over to look inside, he noticed the linen cloths lying there, but didn't go in.

5Stooping down, he saw the linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in.

6At this point Simon Peter arrived, following him, and went straight into the tomb. He observed that the linen cloths were lying there,

6Then, following him, Simon Peter also came. He entered the tomb and saw the linen cloths lying there.

7and that the handkerchief that had been on Jesus' head was not lying with the linen cloths but was rolled up in a separate place.

7The wrapping that had been on his head was not lying with the linen cloths but was folded up in a separate place by itself.

8Then the other disciple, who arrived at the tomb first, went inside, looked, and believed.

8The other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, then also went in, saw, and believed.

9For they did not yet understand the Scripture that said that Jesus had to rise from the dead.

11Meanwhile, Mary stood crying outside the tomb. As she cried, she bent over and looked into the tomb.

11But Mary stood outside the tomb, crying. As she was crying, she stooped to look into the tomb.

12She saw two angels in white clothes who were sitting down, one at the head and the other at the foot of the place where Jesus' body had been lying.

12She saw two angels in white sitting where Jesus's body had been lying, one at the head and the other at the feet.

13They asked her, "Lady, why are you crying?" She told them, "Because they have taken away my Lord, and I don't know where they have put him."

13They said to her, "Woman, why are you crying?" "Because they've taken away my Lord," she told them, "and I don't know where they've put him."

14After she had said this, she turned around and noticed Jesus standing there, without realizing that it was Jesus.

14Having said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know it was Jesus.

15Jesus asked her, "Dear lady, why are you crying? Who are you looking for?" Thinking he was the gardener, she told him, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him away."

15"Woman," Jesus said to her, "why are you crying? Who is it that you're seeking?" Supposing he was the gardener, she replied, "Sir, if you've carried him away, tell me where you've put him, and I will take him away."

16Jesus told her, "Mary!" She turned around and told him in Hebrew, "Rabbouni!" (which means "Teacher").

16Jesus said to her, "Mary." Turning around, she said to him in Aramaic, "Rabboni!" --which means "Teacher."

17Jesus told her, "Don't hold on to me, because I haven't yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and tell them, 'I'm ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'"

17"Don't cling to me," Jesus told her, "since I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and tell them that I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God."

18So Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, "I've seen the Lord!" She also told them what he had told her.

19It was the evening of the first day of the week, and the doors of the house where the disciples had met were locked because they were afraid of the Jewish leaders. Jesus came and stood among them. He told them, "Peace be with you."

19When it was evening of that first day of the week, the disciples were gathered together with the doors locked because they feared the Jews. Jesus came, stood among them, and said to them, "Peace be with you."

20After saying this, he showed them his hands and his side, and when they saw the Lord, the disciples were overjoyed.

20Having said this, he showed them his hands and his side. So the disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.

21Jesus told them again, "Peace be with you. Just as the Father has sent me, so I am sending you."

22When he had said this, he breathed on them and told them, "Receive the Holy Spirit.

23If you forgive people's sins, they are forgiven. If you retain people's sins, they are retained."

23If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained."

24Thomas, one of the Twelve (called the Twin), wasn't with them when Jesus came.

24But Thomas (called "Twin"), one of the Twelve, was not with them when Jesus came.

25So the other disciples kept telling him, "We've seen the Lord!" But he told them, "Unless I see the nail marks in his hands, put my finger into them, and put my hand into his side, I'll never believe!"

25So the other disciples were telling him, "We've seen the Lord!" But he said to them, "If I don't see the mark of the nails in his hands, put my finger into the mark of the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will never believe."

26A week later, his disciples were again inside, and Thomas was with them. Even though the doors were shut, Jesus came, stood among them, and said, "Peace be with you."

26A week later his disciples were indoors again, and Thomas was with them. Even though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you."

27Then he told Thomas, "Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Take your hand, and put it into my side. Stop doubting, but believe."

27Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here and look at my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Don't be faithless, but believe."

28Thomas answered him, "My Lord and my God!"

28Thomas responded to him, "My Lord and my God!"

29Jesus told him, "Is it because you've seen me that you have believed? How blessed are those who have never seen me and yet have believed!"

29Jesus said, "Because you have seen me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe."
