The
first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene
early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre,
and seeth the stone taken away from the
sepulchre.
02 Then she runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter,
and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and
saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord
out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they
have laid him.
03 Peter therefore went forth, and that other
disciple, and came to the sepulchre.
04 So they ran both together: and the other
disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the
sepulchre.
05 And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the
linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.
06 Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and
went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen
clothes lie,
07 And the napkin, that was about his head, not
lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped
together in a place by itself.
08 Then went in also that other disciple, which
came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and
believed.
09 For as yet they knew not the scripture, that
he must rise again from the dead.
10 Then the disciples went away again unto their
own home.
11 But Mary stood without at the sepulchre
weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down, and
looked into the sepulchre,
12 And seeth two angels in white sitting, the one
at the head, and the other at the feet, where the
body of Jesus had lain.
13 And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest
thou? She saith unto 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.
15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman,
why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She,
supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him,
Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where
thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.
16 Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She
turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni;
which is to say, Master.

17 Jesus saith 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.
18 Mary Magdalene came and told
the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and
that he had spoken these things unto 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
saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
20 And when he had so said, he
shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then
were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord.
21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be
unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send
I you.
22 And when he had said this, he
breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive
ye the Holy Ghost:
23 Whose soever sins ye
remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose
soever sins ye retain, they are retained.
24 But Thomas, one of the twelve,
called Didymus, was not 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.
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.
27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach
hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach
hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and
be not faithless, but believing.
28 And Thomas answered and said
unto him, My Lord and my God.
29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas,
because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed:
blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have
believed.
30 And many other signs truly did
Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are
not written in this book:
31 But these are written, that ye might believe
that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and
that believing ye might have life through his
name.
