22 I will declare your name to my people;
    in the assembly(A) I will praise you.(B)
23 You who fear the Lord, praise him!(C)
    All you descendants of Jacob, honor him!(D)
    Revere him,(E) all you descendants of Israel!
24 For he has not despised(F) or scorned
    the suffering of the afflicted one;(G)
he has not hidden his face(H) from him
    but has listened to his cry for help.(I)

25 From you comes the theme of my praise in the great assembly;(J)
    before those who fear you[a] I will fulfill my vows.(K)
26 The poor will eat(L) and be satisfied;
    those who seek the Lord will praise him—(M)
    may your hearts live forever!

27 All the ends of the earth(N)
    will remember and turn to the Lord,
and all the families of the nations
    will bow down before him,(O)
28 for dominion belongs to the Lord(P)
    and he rules over the nations.

29 All the rich(Q) of the earth will feast and worship;(R)
    all who go down to the dust(S) will kneel before him—
    those who cannot keep themselves alive.(T)
30 Posterity(U) will serve him;
    future generations(V) will be told about the Lord.
31 They will proclaim his righteousness,(W)
    declaring to a people yet unborn:(X)
    He has done it!(Y)

  1. Psalm 22:25 Hebrew him

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.
