Mark 16:1-10

Christian Standard Bible

Resurrection Morning

16 When^(A) the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene,^(B) Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they could go and anoint him. ² Very early in the morning, on the first day of the week,^(C) they went to the tomb^(D) at sunrise. ³ They were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone from the entrance to the tomb for us?” ⁴ Looking up, they noticed that the stone—which was very large—had been rolled away.

⁵ When^(E) they entered the tomb,^(F) they saw a young man^(G) dressed^(H) in a white^(I) robe sitting on the right side; they were alarmed. ⁶ “Don’t be alarmed,” he told them. “You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth,^(J) who was crucified. He has risen!^(K) He is not here. See the place where they put him. ⁷ But go, tell his disciples and Peter,^(L) ‘He is going ahead of you to Galilee;^(M) you will see him there just as he told you.’”

⁸ They went out and ran from the tomb,^(N) because trembling and astonishment overwhelmed them. And they said nothing to anyone,^(O) since they were afraid.
