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) 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)

So Peter and the other disciple started for the tomb.(F) Both were running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. He bent over and looked in(G) at the strips of linen(H) lying there but did not go in. Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen lying there, 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. Finally the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first,(J) also went inside. He saw and believed. (They still did not understand from Scripture(K) that Jesus had to rise from the dead.)(L)

20 七 日 的 第 一 日 清 早 , 天 還 黑 的 時 候 , 抹 大 拉 的 馬 利 亞 來 到 墳 墓 那 裡 , 看 見 石 頭 從 墳 墓 挪 開 了 ,

就 跑 來 見 西 門 彼 得 和 耶 穌 所 愛 的 那 個 門 徒 , 對 他 們 說 : 有 人 把 主 從 墳 墓 裡 挪 了 去 , 我 們 不 知 道 放 在 那 裡 。

彼 得 和 那 門 徒 就 出 來 , 往 墳 墓 那 裡 去 。

兩 個 人 同 跑 , 那 門 徒 比 彼 得 跑 的 更 快 , 先 到 了 墳 墓 ,

低 頭 往 裡 看 , 就 見 細 麻 布 還 放 在 那 裡 , 只 是 沒 有 進 去 。

西 門 彼 得 隨 後 也 到 了 , 進 墳 墓 裡 去 , 就 看 見 細 麻 布 還 放 在 那 裡 ,

又 看 見 耶 穌 的 裹 頭 巾 沒 有 和 細 麻 布 放 在 一 處 , 是 另 在 一 處 捲 著 。

先 到 墳 墓 的 那 門 徒 也 進 去 , 看 見 就 信 了 。

因 為 他 們 還 不 明 白 聖 經 的 意 思 , 就 是 耶 穌 必 要 從 死 裡 復 活 。

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.

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.

Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulchre.

So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.

And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.

Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,

And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.

Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed.

For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.
