22 (A)I will tell of your name to my (B)brothers;
    in the midst of the congregation I will praise you:
23 You who (C)fear the Lord, praise him!
    All you offspring of Jacob, (D)glorify him,
    and stand in awe of him, all you offspring of Israel!
24 For he has not despised or abhorred
    the affliction of (E)the afflicted,
and he has not (F)hidden his face from him,
    but has heard, when he (G)cried to him.

25 From you comes my praise in the great (H)congregation;
    my (I)vows I will (J)perform before those who fear him.
26 (K)The afflicted[a] shall (L)eat and be satisfied;
    those who seek him shall praise the Lord!
    May your hearts (M)live forever!

27 All (N)the ends of the earth shall remember
    and turn to the Lord,
and all (O)the families of the nations
    shall worship before you.
28 For (P)kingship belongs to the Lord,
    and he rules over the nations.

29 All (Q)the prosperous of the earth eat and worship;
    before him shall (R)bow all who go down to the dust,
    even the one who could not (S)keep himself alive.
30 Posterity shall serve him;
    it shall be told of the Lord to the coming (T)generation;
31 they shall (U)come and proclaim his righteousness to a people yet (V)unborn,
    that he has done it.

  1. Psalm 22:25 Hebrew him

Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene

11 But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept she stooped to look into the tomb. 12 And (A)she saw (B)two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and one at the feet. 13 They said to her, (C)“Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, (D)“They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him.” 14 Having said this, she turned around and (E)saw Jesus standing, (F)but she did not know that it was Jesus. 15 Jesus said to her, (G)“Woman, why are you weeping? (H)Whom are you seeking?” Supposing him to be (I)the gardener, she 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, “Mary.” She turned and said to him in Aramaic,[a] (J)“Rabboni!” (which means Teacher). 17 Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to (K)my brothers and say to them, (L)‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to (M)my God and your God.’” 18 Mary Magdalene (N)went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord”—and that he had said these things to her.

  1. John 20:16 Or Hebrew

Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene

11 Now Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb(A) 12 and saw two angels in white,(B) 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?”(C)

“They have taken my Lord away,” she said, “and I don’t know where they have put him.”(D) 14 At this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there,(E) but she did not realize that it was Jesus.(F)

15 He asked her, “Woman, why are you crying?(G) 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,(H) “Rabboni!”(I) (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(J) and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father(K) and your Father, to my God and your God.’”

18 Mary Magdalene(L) went to the disciples(M) with the news: “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them that he had said these things to her.
