< John 20 >

1 The first day of the week comes Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the tomb, and sees the stone taken away from the tomb.
And the first day of the week, in the morning, while it was yet dark, Mary Magdalena came to the sepulchre: and she saw that the stone was removed from the grave.
2 Then she runs, and comes to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and says unto them, They have taken away the LORD out of the tomb, and we know not where they have laid him.
And she ran, and came to Simon Cephas, and to that other disciple whom Jesus loved, and said to them: They have taken away our Lord from the sepulchre, and I know not where they have laid him.
3 Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the tomb.
And Simon set out, and the other disciple, and they were going to the sepulchre.
4 So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the tomb.
And they both ran together; but that disciple outran Simon, and came first to the sepulchre.
5 And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.
And he looked in, and saw the linen cloths lying: but he did not go in.
6 Then comes Simon Peter following him, and went into the tomb, and sees the linen clothes lie,
And after him came Simon; and he entered the sepulchre, and saw the linen cloths lying;
7 And the cloth, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.
and the napkin, that had been wrapped about his head, was not with the linen cloths, but was folded up, and laid in a place by itself.
8 Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the tomb, and he saw, and believed.
Then entered also the disciple who came first to the sepulchre; and he saw, and believed.
9 For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.
For they had not yet learned from the scriptures, that he was to arise from the dead.
10 Then the disciples went away again unto their own home.
And those disciples went away again to their place.
11 But Mary stood without at the tomb weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down, and looked into the tomb,
But Mary remained standing at the sepulchre, and weeping; and as she wept, she looked into the sepulchre
12 And sees two angels in white sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.
and saw two angels in white, who were sitting, one at the pillows and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus was laid.
13 And they say unto her, Woman, why weep you? She says unto them, Because they have taken away my LORD, and I know not where they have laid him.
And they said to her: Woman, why weepest thou? She said to them: Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him
14 And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.
Having said this, she turned round, and saw Jesus standing, but did not know that it was Jesus.
15 Jesus says unto her, Woman, why weep you? whom seek you? She, supposing him to be the gardener, says unto him, Sir, if you have borne him behind, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away.
Jesus said to her: Woman, why weepest thou? and, whom dost thou seek? And she supposed that he was the gardener: and she said to him: My lord, if thou hast borne him away, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will go and take him away.
16 Jesus says unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and says unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.
Jesus said to her: Mary! And she turned, and said to him in Hebrew: Rabbuni; which is interpreted Teacher.
17 Jesus says unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
Jesus said to her: Touch me not; for not yet have I ascended to my Father. But go to my brethren, and say to them: I ascend to my Father and your Father, and to my God and your God.
18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the LORD, and that he had spoken these things unto her.
Then came Mary Magdalena, and told the disciples that she had seen our Lord; and that he had said these things to her.
19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and says unto them, Peace be unto you.
And on the evening of that first day of the week, the doors being shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came, and stood in the midst of them, and said to them: Peace be with you.
20 And when he had so said, he showed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the LORD.
Having said this, he showed them his hands and his side. And the disciples rejoiced, when they saw our Lord.
21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father has sent me, even so send I you.
And Jesus said to them; Peace be with you. As my Father hath sent me, I also send you.
22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and says unto them, Receive all of you the Holy Spirit: (pneuma)
And as he said these things, he breathed on them, and said to them: Receive ye the Holy Spirit.
23 Whomsoever sins all of you remit, they are remitted unto them; and whomsoever sins all of you retain, they are retained.
If ye shall remit sins to any one, they will be remitted to him; and if ye shall retain those of any one, they will be retained.
24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.
But Thomas, who was called the Twin, one of the twelve, was not there with them, when Jesus came.
25 The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the LORD. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.
And the disciples said to him: We have seen our Lord. But he said to them: Unless I see in his hands the places of the nails, and put my fingers into them, and extend my hand to his side, I will not believe.
26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.
And after eight days, the disciples were again within, and Thomas with them: and Jesus came, while the doors were closed, stood in the midst, and said to them: Peace be with you.
27 Then says he to Thomas, Reach here your finger, and behold my hands; and reach here your hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.
And he said to Thomas: Reach hither thy finger, and look at my hands; and reach out thy hand and extend it to my side: and be not incredulous, but believing.
28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My LORD and my God.
And Thomas answered, and said to him: My Lord, and my God!
29 Jesus says unto him, Thomas, because you have seen me, you have believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
Jesus said to him: Now, when thou hast seen me, thou believest: blessed are they, who have not seen me, yet believe.
30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:
And many other signs did Jesus before his disciples, which are not written in this book.
31 But these are written, that all of you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing all of you might have life through his name.
But these are written, that ye may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God; and that when ye believe, ye may have life eternal by his name.
