John 20:11-18
1599 Geneva Bible
11 ¶ (A)But Mary stood [a]without at the sepulcher weeping: and as she wept, she bowed herself into the sepulcher,
12 [b]And saw two Angels in [c]white, sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.
13 And they said unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? She said unto them, They have taken away [d]my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him.
14 [e]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 that he had been the gardener, said unto him, Sir, if thou hast 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 said unto him, Rabboni, which is to say, Master.
17 [f]Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not: for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my [g]brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto [h]my Father, and to 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.
