John 20
1 Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been moved from the entrance.
On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, while it was yet dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and discovered that the stone had been removed from the tomb.
2 So she ran to tell Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, “They've taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don't know where they've put him.”
So she came running to Simon Peter and that other disciple whom Jesus loved, saying, "They have taken the Master out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him!"
3 Then Peter and the other disciple went to the tomb.
So Peter and the other disciples set out at once to go to the tomb.
4 The two of them were running together, but the other disciple ran faster and reached the tomb first.
They both began to run; and the other disciple ran faster than Peter, and came first to the tomb.
5 He bent down, and looking in he saw the grave-clothes lying there, but he didn't go in.
Stooping down he glanced in and saw the linen wrapping lying on the ground; but he did not go in.
6 Then Simon Peter arrived after him and went right into the tomb. He saw the linen grave-clothes lying there,
Then Peter also came following him, and he went inside the tomb; and he gazed at the linen wrapping as they lay,
7 and that the cloth that had been on Jesus' head wasn't with the other grave-clothes but had been folded and placed on its own.
and the napkin which had been about his head not lying with the wrappings, but rolled up in it’s own place.
8 Then the other disciple who had reached the tomb first went inside as well.
Then the other disciple also who arrived first at the tomb went inside, and he perceived and believed.
9 He looked around and believed it was true—for up till then they hadn't understood the Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.
For not yet had they understood the Scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.
10 Then the disciples went back to where they were staying.
Then the disciples went back again to their home.
11 But Mary stayed outside the tomb crying, and as she was crying, she bent down and looked into the tomb.
Meanwhile, outside, Mary stood sobbing near the tomb. Still sobbing she stooped and looked into the tomb,
12 She saw two angels in white, one sitting at the head and the other at the foot of where Jesus' body had been lying.
and gazed at two angels in glistening white sitting, one at the head the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.
13 “Why are you crying?” they asked her. She answered, “Because they've taken my Lord away, and I don't know where they've put him.”
They said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She answered, "Because they have taken away my Master, and I do not know where they have laid him."
14 After she'd said this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing there, but she didn't realize it was Jesus.
When she had said this she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but did not know that it was Jesus.
15 “Why are you crying?” he asked her. “Who are you looking for?” Assuming he was the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you've taken him away, tell me where you've put him so I can go and get him.”
Jesus said to her. "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?’ She, supposing that he was the gardener, said to him, "Sir, if you have borne him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him away, myself."
16 Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned to him and said, “Rabboni,” which means “Teacher” in Hebrew.
"Mary," said Jesus. She turned to him. "Rabboni!" she cried in Hebrew. That is to say, "Teacher."
17 “Don't hold onto me,” Jesus said to her, “for I haven't yet ascended to my Father; but go to my brothers and tell them I am ascending to my Father and your Father, my God and your God.”
"Do not cling to me," said Jesus, "for I am not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, "‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’"
18 So Mary Magdalene went and told the disciples, “I've seen the Lord,” and she explained to them what he had said to her.
Away went Mary Magdalene to the disciples with the tidings, "I have seen the Master!" and that he said these things to her.
19 That evening, on the first day of the week, as the disciples were meeting together behind locked doors because they were afraid of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “May you have peace.”
On the evening of that same day, the first day of the week, although the doors of the room where the disciples gathered had been locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came, and there he stood among them, saying. "Peace to you!"
20 After this greeting he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples were full of joy to see the Lord.
As he said this he showed them his hands and his side. Then were the disciple glad, when they saw the Lord.
21 “May you have peace!” Jesus told them again. “In the same way the Father sent me, so I'm sending you.”
Then Jesus said to them again. "Peace to you. As my Father has sent me forth, I also now am sending you."
22 Saying this, he breathed on them, and told them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.
When he had said this he breathed upon them and said.
23 If you forgive anyone's sins, they are forgiven; if you hold them unforgiven, unforgiven they remain.”
"Receive the Holy Spirit. If you remit any one’s sins, they are remitted; if you retain them they are retained."
24 One of the twelve disciples, Thomas, who was called the Twin, wasn't with them when Jesus came.
But Thomas, one of the Twelve, who was called "The Twin." was not with them when Jesus came.
25 So the other disciples told him, “We've seen the Lord.” But he replied, “I won't believe it unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger in them, and put my hand in his side.”
Accordingly the other disciples kept telling him, "We have seen the Lord." But he told them, "Unless I see in his hands the print of the nails, and thrust my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe it."
26 One week later the disciples were together inside the house; and Thomas was with them. The doors were closed, and Jesus came and stood among them. “May you have peace!” he said.
A week later his disciples were again in the house, and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, although the doors were locked, and stood there among and said. "Peace to you!"
27 Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand in the wound on my side. Stop doubting and trust in me!”
Then to Thomas he said. "Place your finger here, and see my hands; and place your hand here, and thrust it into my side, and become not unbelieving, but believing."
28 “My Lord and my God!” Thomas responded.
Thomas answered him, "My Lord and my God!"
29 “You trust in me because you've seen me,” Jesus told him. “Happy are those that haven't seen me yet still trust in me.”
"Because you have seen me, Thomas, you have believed," Jesus told him. "Blessed are those who, without seeing, yet believed."
30 Jesus did many other miraculous signs while he was with his disciples that are not recorded in this book.
There were then many other signs which Jesus performed in the presence of his disciples, which have not been written in this book;
31 But these are written down here so that you may trust that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by trusting in him as he is you will have life.
but these have been written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.
