20:1 Now on the first day of the week Mary the Magdalene comes early darkness yet being to the tomb, and sees the stone having been taken out of the tomb. 2 She runs therefore and comes to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom loved Jesus and says to them: They the Lord out of the tomb and we do not know where they put him. 3 Went forth therefore Peter and the other disciples, and came to the tomb. 4 And ran the two together and the other disciple ran before more quickly then Peter and came first to the tomb, 5 and stooping sees lying the sheets, not however he entered. 6 Comes therefore also Simon Peter following him, and entered into the tomb; and he beholds the sheets lying. 7 and the kerchief, which was on the heard of him, not with the sheets lying but apart having been wrapped up in the one place. 8 Then therefore entered also the other disciple having come first to the tomb, and he saw and believed; 9 for not yet they knew the Scripture, that it behoves him from the dead to rise again. 10 Went away therefore again to

themselves the disciples. 11 But Mary stood at the tomb outside weeping. As therefore she was weeping, she stooped into the tomb, 12 and beholds two angels in white sitting, one at the head and one at the feet, where lay the body of Jesus. 13 And say to her those: Woman why weepest thou? She says to them. They took the Lord of me and I know not where they put him. 14 These things saying she turned back and beholds Jesus standing and knew not that Jesus it was. 15 Says to her Jesus: Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? That one thinking that the gardener it was says to him: Sir if thou didst carry him, tell me where thou didst put him and I him will take. 16 says to her Jesus: Mary, Turning that one says to him in Hebrew: Rabboni (which is said Teacher). 17 Says to her Jesus: Not me touch, for not yet have I ascended to the Father: but go thou to the brothers of me and tell them: I ascend to the Father of me and Father of you and God of me and God of you. 18 Comes Mary the Magdalene announcing to the disciples. I have seen the Lord, and these things he said to her.

The Lord

 

20: 19 Being therefore early evening day on that the one of the week, and the doors having been shut where were the disciples because of the fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst and says to them. Peace to you. 20 And this saying he showed both the hands and the side to them. Rejoiced therefore the disciples

seeing the Lord. 21 Said therefore to them Jesus again: Peace to you; as has sent me the Father, I also send you. 22 And this saying he breathed in and says to them: Receive ye Spirit Holy. 23 Of whomever ye forgive the sins, they have been forgiven to them: of whoever ye hold, they have been held.
