John 20
New American Standard Bible
The Empty Tomb
20 (A)Now on the first day of the week (B)Mary Magdalene *came early to the tomb, while it was still dark, and *saw (C)the stone already removed from the tomb. 2 So she *ran and *came to Simon Peter and to the other (D)disciple whom Jesus loved, and *said to them, “(E)They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we do not know where they have put Him.” 3 (F)So Peter and the other disciple left, and they were going to the tomb. 4 The two were running together; and the other disciple ran ahead, faster than Peter, and came to the tomb first; 5 and he (G)stooped to look in, and *saw the (H)linen wrappings lying there; however he did not go in. 6 So Simon Peter also *came, following him, and he entered the tomb; and he *looked at the linen wrappings lying there, 7 and (I)the face-cloth which had been on His head, not lying with the (J)linen wrappings but folded up in a place by itself. 8 So the other disciple who (K)had first come to the tomb also entered then, and he saw and believed. 9 For (L)they did not yet understand the Scripture, (M)that He must rise from the dead. 10 So the disciples went away again (N)to their own homes.
11 (O)But Mary was standing outside the tomb, weeping; so as she wept, she (P)stooped to look into the tomb; 12 and she *saw (Q)two angels in white sitting, one at the head and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had been lying. 13 And they *said to her, “(R)Woman, why are you weeping?” She *said to them, “Because (S)they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they put Him.” 14 When she had said this, she turned around and *(T)saw Jesus standing there, and yet she (U)did not know that it was Jesus. 15 Jesus *said to her, “(V)Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?” Thinking that He was the gardener, she *said to Him, “Sir, if you have carried Him away, tell me where you put Him, and I will take Him away.” 16 Jesus *said to her, “Mary!” She turned and *said to Him (W)in [a]Hebrew, “(X)Rabboni!” (which means, Teacher). 17 Jesus *said to her, “Stop clinging to Me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to (Y)My brothers and say to them, ‘I am (Z)ascending to My Father and your Father, and My God and your God.’” 18 (AA)Mary Magdalene *came and (AB)announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord,” and that He had said these things to her.
Jesus among His Disciples
19 Now when it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were [b]shut where the disciples were together due to (AC)fear of the [c]Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst, and *said to them, “(AD)Peace be to you.” 20 And when He had said this, (AE)He showed them both His hands and His side. The disciples then (AF)rejoiced when they saw the Lord. 21 So Jesus said to them again, “(AG)Peace be to you; (AH)just as the Father has sent Me, I also send you.” 22 And when He had said this, He breathed on them and *said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 (AI)If you forgive the sins of any, their sins [d]have been forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they have been retained.”
24 But (AJ)Thomas, one of (AK)the twelve, who was called [e](AL)Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came. 25 So the other disciples were saying to him, “We have seen the Lord!” But he said to them, “Unless I see in (AM)His hands the imprint of the nails, and put my finger into the place of the nails, and put my hand into His side, (AN)I will not believe.”
26 [f]Eight days later His disciples were again inside, and Thomas was with them. Jesus *came, the doors having been [g]shut, and stood in their midst and said, “(AO)Peace be to you.” 27 Then He *said to Thomas, “(AP)Place your finger here, and see My hands; and take your hand and put it into My side; and do not continue in disbelief, but be a believer.” 28 Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!” 29 Jesus *said to him, “Because you have seen Me, have you now believed? (AQ)Blessed are they who did not see, and yet believed.”
Why This Gospel Was Written
30 (AR)So then, many other [h](AS)signs Jesus also performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these have been written (AT)so that you may believe that Jesus is the [i]Christ, (AU)the Son of God; and that by (AV)believing you may have life in His name.

Ngôi Mộ Trống
(Mat 28:1-8; Mác 16:1-8; Lu 24:1-10)
20 Ngày thứ nhất trong tuần, Ma-ry Mạc-đa-len đến thăm mộ rất sớm, lúc trời vẫn còn mờ mờ tối; bà thấy tảng đá chận cửa mộ đã bị dời đi. 2 Do đó bà chạy đến gặp Si-môn Phi-rơ và môn đồ kia, người được Ðức Chúa Jesus thương mến, và nói với họ, “Người ta đã đem Chúa ra khỏi mộ, và chúng tôi không biết họ đặt Ngài ở đâu.”
3 Vậy Phi-rơ và môn đồ ấy đi ra, và họ đi đến mộ. 4 Cả hai cùng chạy, nhưng môn đồ ấy chạy nhanh hơn Phi-rơ và đến mộ trước. 5 Môn đồ ấy cúi xuống, nhìn vào trong, và thấy cuộn vải liệm nằm đó, nhưng không bước vào.
6 Si-môn Phi-rơ theo đến nơi, ông bước vào trong mộ và thấy cuộn vải liệm nằm đó, 7 còn vải quấn đầu Ngài không nằm chung với cuộn vải liệm, nhưng vẫn còn cuộn lại và ở riêng một nơi. 8 Môn đồ ấy, người chạy đến trước, cũng bước theo vào trong mộ, và khi thấy như thế thì tin. 9 Số là lúc đó họ chưa hiểu Kinh Thánh dạy rằng Ngài phải từ cõi chết sống lại.
10 Sau đó hai môn đồ bước ra và trở về nhà.
Chúa Hiện Ra cho Ma-ry Mạc-đa-len
(Mat 28:9-10; Mác 16:9-11)
11 Tuy nhiên Ma-ry cứ đứng khóc bên ngoài cửa mộ. Bà vừa khóc, vừa cúi xuống, nhìn vào trong mộ. 12 Bà thấy hai vị thiên sứ y phục trắng xóa đang ngồi ở chỗ xác Ðức Chúa Jesus đã nằm, một vị ngồi ở đàng đầu, và một vị ngồi ở đàng chân. 13 Họ hỏi bà, “Này bà,[a] tại sao bà khóc?”
Bà trả lời họ, “Bởi vì người ta đã đem Chúa của tôi đi, và tôi không biết họ để Ngài ở đâu.” 14 Khi nói xong, bà quay lại và thấy Ðức Chúa Jesus đứng đó, nhưng bà không biết đó là Ðức Chúa Jesus.
15 Ðức Chúa Jesus nói với bà, “Này bà, tại sao bà khóc? Bà tìm ai?”
Tưởng Ngài là người làm vườn, bà nói với Ngài, “Thưa ông, nếu ông đã đem Ngài đi, xin nói cho tôi biết ông đã để Ngài ở đâu, để tôi sẽ đến đem Ngài đi.”
16 Ðức Chúa Jesus nói với bà, “Ma-ry!”
Bà quay hẳn người lại và nói với Ngài, “Ra-bu-ni!”[b] nghĩa là ‘Thầy!’
17 Ðức Chúa Jesus bảo bà, “Ðừng đụng vào Ta, [c] vì Ta chưa lên cùng Cha, nhưng hãy đi gặp các anh em Ta và nói cho họ biết rằng Ta phải lên cùng Cha Ta và Cha các ngươi, cùng Ðức Chúa Trời của Ta và Ðức Chúa Trời của các ngươi.”
18 Ma-ry Mạc-đa-len đi và loan báo với các môn đồ, “Tôi đã gặp Chúa,” và kể lại những lời Ngài đã nói với bà.
Chúa Hiện Ra cho Các Môn Ðồ
(Mat 28:16-20; Mác 16:14-18; Lu 24:36-49)
19 Chiều tối hôm đó, ngày thứ nhất trong tuần, các cửa nơi các môn đồ đang ở đều đóng chặt, vì sợ người Do-thái, Ðức Chúa Jesus đến, đứng chính giữa họ, và nói, “Bình an cho các ngươi!”
20 Nói xong Ngài đưa hai tay và hông Ngài cho họ xem. Các môn đồ mừng rỡ vô cùng khi thấy Chúa. 21 Ðức Chúa Jesus lại nói với họ, “Bình an cho các ngươi! Như Cha đã sai Ta, Ta cũng sai các ngươi.”
22 Nói xong Ngài hà hơi trên họ và phán với họ, “Hãy nhận lãnh Ðức Thánh Linh. 23 Nếu các ngươi tha tội ai, tội người ấy được tha. Nếu các ngươi cầm tội ai, tội của người ấy bị cầm lại.”
Chúa và Thô-ma
24 Nhưng Thô-ma cũng gọi là Ði-đim,[d] một trong nhóm mười hai môn đồ, không có mặt với họ lúc Ðức Chúa Jesus hiện đến. 25 Vì vậy khi các môn đồ nói với ông, “Chúng tôi đã thấy Chúa,” ông trả lời họ, “Nếu tôi không thấy dấu đinh trong hai bàn tay Ngài, nếu tôi không đặt ngón tay tôi vào chỗ có dấu đinh, và đặt bàn tay tôi vào hông Ngài, tôi sẽ không tin.”
26 Tám ngày sau, các môn đồ lại họp nhau trong nhà, Thô-ma cũng có mặt với họ. Khi các cửa đang đóng, Ðức Chúa Jesus hiện đến, đứng chính giữa họ, và phán, “Bình an cho các ngươi!” 27 Ðoạn Ngài nói với Thô-ma, “Hãy để ngón tay ngươi vào đây và hãy xem hai bàn tay Ta, cũng hãy đưa bàn tay ngươi ra và đặt vào hông Ta. Ðừng vô tín, nhưng hãy tin.”
28 Thô-ma trả lời và nói với Ngài, “Lạy Chúa của con và Ðức Chúa Trời của con!”
29 Ðức Chúa Jesus nói với ông, “Vì ngươi đã thấy Ta, nên ngươi tin. Phước cho những người chẳng hề thấy mà tin!”
Mục Ðích của Sách
30 Ðức Chúa Jesus đã làm nhiều phép lạ khác trước mặt các môn đồ Ngài nhưng không được chép trong sách này. 31 Nhưng những việc này được chép ra để các người tin rằng Ðức Chúa Jesus chính là Ðấng Christ, Con Ðức Chúa Trời, và để khi tin các người có sự sống trong danh Ngài.

The Empty Tomb(A)
20 Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene(B) went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the entrance.(C) 2 So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one Jesus loved,(D) and said, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put him!”(E)
3 So Peter and the other disciple started for the tomb.(F) 4 Both were running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. 5 He bent over and looked in(G) at the strips of linen(H) lying there but did not go in. 6 Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen lying there, 7 as well as the cloth that had been wrapped around Jesus’ head.(I) The cloth was still lying in its place, separate from the linen. 8 Finally the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first,(J) also went inside. He saw and believed. 9 (They still did not understand from Scripture(K) that Jesus had to rise from the dead.)(L) 10 Then the disciples went back to where they were staying.
Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene
11 Now Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb(M) 12 and saw two angels in white,(N) seated where Jesus’ body had been, one at the head and the other at the foot.
13 They asked her, “Woman, why are you crying?”(O)
“They have taken my Lord away,” she said, “and I don’t know where they have put him.”(P) 14 At this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there,(Q) but she did not realize that it was Jesus.(R)
15 He asked her, “Woman, why are you crying?(S) Who is it you are looking for?”
Thinking he was the gardener, she said, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will get him.”
16 Jesus said to her, “Mary.”
She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic,(T) “Rabboni!”(U) (which means “Teacher”).
17 Jesus said, “Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. Go instead to my brothers(V) and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father(W) and your Father, to my God and your God.’”
18 Mary Magdalene(X) went to the disciples(Y) with the news: “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them that he had said these things to her.
Jesus Appears to His Disciples
19 On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders,(Z) Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace(AA) be with you!”(AB) 20 After he said this, he showed them his hands and side.(AC) The disciples were overjoyed(AD) when they saw the Lord.
21 Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you!(AE) As the Father has sent me,(AF) I am sending you.”(AG) 22 And with that he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit.(AH) 23 If you forgive anyone’s sins, their sins are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.”(AI)
Jesus Appears to Thomas
24 Now Thomas(AJ) (also known as Didymus[a]), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came. 25 So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!”
But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side,(AK) I will not believe.”(AL)
26 A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace(AM) be with you!”(AN) 27 Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”(AO)
28 Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”
29 Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed;(AP) blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”(AQ)
The Purpose of John’s Gospel
30 Jesus performed many other signs(AR) in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book.(AS) 31 But these are written that you may believe[b](AT) that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God,(AU) and that by believing you may have life in his name.(AV)

King James Version
20 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.
2 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.
3 Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulchre.
4 So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.
5 And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.
6 Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,
7 And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.
8 Then went in also that other disciple, which 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.
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.
