The Empty Tomb(A)
20 Now the (B)first day of the week Mary Magdalene went to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the (C)stone had been taken away from the tomb. 2 Then she ran and came to Simon Peter, and to the (D)other disciple, (E)whom Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid Him.”
3 (F)Peter therefore went out, and the other disciple, and were going to the tomb. 4 So they both ran together, and the other disciple outran Peter and came to the tomb first. 5 And he, stooping down and looking in, saw (G)the linen cloths lying there; yet he did not go in. 6 Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb; and he saw the linen cloths lying there, 7 and (H)the [a]handkerchief that had been around His head, not lying with the linen cloths, but folded together in a place by itself. 8 Then the (I)other disciple, who came to the tomb first, went in also; and he saw and believed. 9 For as yet they did not [b]know the (J)Scripture, that He must rise again from the dead. 10 Then the disciples went away again to their own homes.
Mary Magdalene Sees the Risen Lord
11 (K)But Mary stood outside by the tomb weeping, and as she wept she stooped down and looked into the tomb. 12 And she saw two angels in white sitting, one at the head and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain. 13 Then they said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?”
She said to them, “Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him.”
14 (L)Now when she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, and (M)did not know that it was Jesus. 15 Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?”
She, supposing Him to be the gardener, said to Him, “Sir, if You have carried Him away, tell me where You have laid Him, and I will take Him away.”
16 Jesus said to her, (N)“Mary!”
She turned and said to [c]Him, “Rabboni!” (which is to say, Teacher).
17 Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet (O)ascended to My Father; but go to (P)My brethren and say to them, (Q)‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to (R)My God and your God.’ ”
18 (S)Mary Magdalene came and told the [d]disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that He had spoken these things to her.
The Apostles Commissioned(T)
19 (U)Then, the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were [e]assembled, for (V)fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, (W)“Peace be with you.” 20 When He had said this, He (X)showed them His hands and His side. (Y)Then the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord.
21 So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! (Z)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 (AA)If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.”
Seeing and Believing
24 Now Thomas, (AB)called the Twin, one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. 25 The other disciples therefore said to him, “We have seen the Lord.”
So he said to them, “Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe.”
26 And after eight days His disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, “Peace to you!” 27 Then He said to Thomas, “Reach your finger here, and look at My hands; and (AC)reach your hand here, and put it into My side. Do not be (AD)unbelieving, but believing.”
28 And Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!”
29 Jesus said to him, [f]“Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. (AE)Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
That You May Believe
30 And (AF)truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 (AG)but these are written that (AH)you may believe that Jesus (AI)is the Christ, the Son of God, (AJ)and that believing you may have life in His name.

Jezus leeft weer!
20 Op de ochtend van de eerste dag van de week (zondag, de dag na de sabbat), ging Maria van Magdala al heel vroeg naar het graf. Toen zij daar aankwam, zag zij dat de steen voor de ingang was weggerold. 2 Zo vlug ze kon, holde zij naar Simon Petrus en de leerling die Jezusʼ beste vriend was. ‘De Here is uit het graf gehaald!’ zei ze. ‘Wij weten niet waar ze Hem hebben neergelegd.’
3 Petrus en de andere leerling renden onmiddellijk naar het graf, 4 maar de andere leerling liep vlugger dan Petrus en was er het eerst. 5 Hij boog zich voorover, keek in het graf en zag alleen de linnen windsels liggen. Maar hij ging niet naar binnen. 6 Petrus, die even na hem was gekomen, ging het graf wel binnen. Hij zag de windsels 7 en ook de doek waarmee Jezusʼ hoofd bedekt was geweest. Die doek was opgerold en lag apart.
8 De andere leerling ging toen ook naar binnen. Door wat hij zag, geloofde hij dat Jezus weer levend was geworden. 9 Want zij hadden nog niet begrepen dat Hij volgens de Boeken uit de dood zou terugkomen. 10 De twee leerlingen gingen terug naar huis.
Jezus verschijnt aan zijn leerlingen
11 Maria van Magdala bleef echter bij het graf achter. Huilend boog zij zich voorover en keek in het graf. 12 Op de plaats waar Jezus had gelegen, zag zij twee engelen in witte kleren zitten. Een aan het hoofdeinde en een aan het voeteneinde van de plaats waar Hij gelegen had. 13 ‘Waarom huilt u?’ vroegen zij haar. ‘Ze hebben mijn Heer weggenomen,’ antwoordde Maria, ‘en ik weet niet waar Hij is.’ 14 Zij keek achterom. Daar stond Jezus, maar zij herkende Hem niet. Zij dacht dat het de tuinman was. 15 ‘Waarom huilt u?’ vroeg Jezus. ‘Wie zoekt u?’ ‘Och, meneer, als u Hem ergens anders hebt neergelegd, zeg het alstublieft. Dan neem ik Hem mee,’ zei zij. 16 ‘Maria,’ zei Jezus. Zij draaide zich om en zei in het Aramees tegen Hem: ‘Rabboeni!’ Rabboeni betekent meester. 17 ‘Raak Mij niet aan,’ zei Jezus. ‘Want Ik ben nog niet teruggekeerd naar mijn Vader. Ga naar mijn broeders en vertel hun dat Ik terugga naar mijn Vader, die ook jullie Vader is. Naar mijn God, die ook jullie God is.’ 18 Maria ging snel naar Jezusʼ leerlingen. ‘Ik heb de Here gezien!’ zei ze en vertelde hun wat Hij tegen haar gezegd had.
19 ʼs Avonds zaten de leerlingen bij elkaar. Zij hadden de deur op slot gedaan, omdat zij bang waren voor de Joden. Ineens was Jezus bij hen. ‘Ik wens jullie vrede,’ zei Hij 20 en Hij liet hun zijn handen en zijn zijde zien. De leerlingen waren blij dat ze de Here zagen. 21 ‘Ik wens jullie vrede,’ zei Jezus weer. ‘Zoals de Vader Mij heeft uitgezonden, zo zend Ik jullie uit.’ 22 Toen blies Hij zijn adem over hen heen en zei: ‘Ontvang de Heilige Geest. 23 Wie jullie zijn zonden vergeven, is ervan verlost. Maar wie jullie het aanrekenen, moet zijn zonden dragen.’
24 Een van de twaalf, Thomas (dat betekent Tweeling) was er niet bij. 25 Toen de andere leerlingen hem vertelden dat zij de Here hadden gezien, wilde hij het niet geloven. ‘Ik kan het pas geloven,’ zei hij, ‘als ik de wonden van de spijkers in zijn handen zie en met mijn eigen hand voel dat Hij een wond in zijn zij heeft!’ 26 Acht dagen later waren de leerlingen weer bij elkaar. Thomas was er nu ook bij. Zij hadden de deur op slot gedaan. Ineens was Jezus in hun midden. ‘Vrede,’ zei Hij. 27 ‘Thomas, zie je mijn handen en mijn zij? Voel maar en twijfel niet meer. Geloof dat Ik leef!’ 28 ‘Mijn Here en mijn God,’ zei Thomas. 29 ‘Geloof je het nu, omdat je Mij ziet?’ zei Jezus. ‘Gelukkig zijn de mensen die in Mij geloven zonder Mij gezien te hebben.’
30 Veel van de wonderen die Jezus voor de ogen van zijn leerlingen heeft gedaan, staan niet in dit boek vermeld. 31 Ik heb hier enkele opgeschreven opdat u zult geloven dat Jezus de Christus is, de Zoon van God. Als u in Hem gelooft, leeft u in zijn naam.

20 ¶ Y el primero de los sábados, María Magdalena vino de mañana, siendo aún tinieblas, al sepulcro; y vio la piedra quitada del sepulcro.
2 Entonces corrió, y vino a Simón Pedro, y al otro discípulo, al cual amaba Jesús, y les dice: Han llevado al Señor del sepulcro, y no sabemos dónde le han puesto.
3 Y salió Pedro, y el otro discípulo, y vinieron al sepulcro.
4 Y corrían los dos juntos; mas el otro discípulo corrió más presto que Pedro, y llegó primero al sepulcro.
5 Y bajándose a mirar, vio los lienzos puestos; mas no entró.
6 Llegó luego Simón Pedro siguiéndole, y entró en el sepulcro, y vio los lienzos puestos,
7 y el sudario, que había sido puesto sobre su cabeza, no puesto con los lienzos, sino envuelto en un lugar aparte.
8 Y entonces entró también el otro discípulo, que había venido primero al monumento, y vio, y creyó.
9 Porque aún no sabían la Escritura: Que era necesario que él resucitara de los muertos.
10 Y volvieron los discípulos a los suyos.
11 ¶ Pero María estaba fuera llorando junto al sepulcro; y estando llorando, se bajó y miró al sepulcro;
12 y vio dos ángeles en ropas blancas que estaban sentados, el uno a la cabecera, y el otro a los pies, donde el cuerpo de Jesús había sido puesto.
13 Y le dijeron: Mujer, ¿por qué lloras? Les dice: Han llevado a mi Señor, y no sé dónde le han puesto.
14 Cuando había dicho esto, volvió atrás, y vio a Jesús que estaba allí; pero no sabía que era Jesús.
15 Le dice Jesús: Mujer, ¿por qué lloras? ¿A quién buscas? Ella, pensando que era el hortelano, le dice: Señor, si tú lo has llevado, dime dónde lo has puesto, y yo lo llevaré.
16 Le dice Jesús: ¡María! Volviéndose ella, le dice: ¡Raboni! Que quiere decir, Maestro.
17 Le dice Jesús: No me toques; porque aún no he subido a mi Padre; mas ve a mis hermanos, y diles: Subo a mi Padre y a vuestro Padre, a mi Dios y a vuestro Dios.
18 Vino María Magdalena dando las nuevas a los discípulos: Que he visto al Señor, y estas cosas me dijo.
19 ¶ Y como fue tarde aquel día, el primero de los sábados, y estando las puertas cerradas donde los discípulos estaban juntos por miedo de los judíos, vino Jesús, y se puso en medio, y les dijo: Paz tengáis.
20 Y habiendo dicho esto, les mostró las manos y el costado. Entonces los discípulos se gozaron viendo al Señor.
21 Entonces les dijo otra vez: Paz tengáis; como me envió el Padre, así también yo os envío.
22 Y como hubo dicho esto, les sopló, y les dijo: Tomad el Espíritu Santo:
23 A los que soltaréis los pecados, les son sueltos; a los que los retuviereis, serán retenidos.
24 Pero Tomás, uno de los doce, que se dice el Dídimo, no estaba con ellos cuando Jesús vino.
25 Le dijeron pues los otros discípulos: Al Señor hemos visto. Y él les dijo: Si no viere en sus manos la señal de los clavos, y metiere mi dedo en el lugar de los clavos, y metiere mi mano en su costado, no creeré.
26 ¶ Y ocho días después, estaban otra vez sus discípulos dentro, y con ellos Tomás. Vino Jesús, las puertas cerradas, y se puso en medio, y dijo: Paz tengáis.
27 Luego dice a Tomás: Mete tu dedo aquí, y ve mis manos; y alarga acá tu mano, y métela en mi costado; y no seas incrédulo, sino fiel.
28 Entonces Tomás respondió, y le dijo: ¡Señor mío, y Dios mío!
29 Le dice Jesús: Porque me has visto, oh Tomás, creíste: bienaventurados los que no vieron y creyeron.
30 También muchas otras señales, a la verdad, hizo Jesús en presencia de sus discípulos, que no están escritas en este libro.
31 Estas empero son escritas, para que creáis que Jesús es el Cristo, Hijo de Dios; y para que creyendo, tengáis vida en su nombre.

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)

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.
