Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
11 Mary stood outside at the sepulchre, weeping. And as she wept, she bowed herself into the sepulchre 12 and saw two angels in white sitting, the one at the head and the other at the feet where they had laid the body of Jesus. 13 And they said to her, Woman, why do you weep? She said to them, Because they have taken away my Lord and I do not know where they have laid him.
14 When she had said this, she turned herself back and saw Jesus standing, but did not know that it was Jesus. 15 Jesus said to her, Woman, why do you weep? Whom are you seeking?
She, supposing he was a gardener, said to him, Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him so that I may get him.
16 Jesus said to her, Mary!
She turned herself about and said to him, Rabboni! (which is to say, Teacher!).
17 Jesus said to her, Do not touch me, for I am not yet ascended to my Father. But go to my brethren and say to them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.
18 Mary Magdalene went and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken such things to her.
19 The same day at night, which was the day after the Sabbath day, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled together for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, Peace be with you. 20 And when he had so said, he showed to them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord.
