New Testament

John 20:13-19 Common English Bible (CEB)

13. The angels asked her, "Woman, why are you crying?" She replied, "They have taken away my Lord, and I don’t know where they’ve put him."

14. As soon as she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she didn’t know it was Jesus.

15. Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you crying? Who are you looking for?" Thinking he was the gardener, she replied, "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 and said to him in Aramaic, "Rabbouni" (which means Teacher).

17. Jesus said to her, "Don’t hold on to me, for I haven’t yet gone up to my Father. Go to my brothers and sisters and tell them, ‘I’m going up to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’"

18. Mary Magdalene left and announced to the disciples, "I’ve seen the Lord." Then she told them what he said to her.

19. It was still the first day of the week. That evening, while the disciples were behind closed doors because they were afraid of the Jewish authorities, Jesus came and stood among them. He said, "Peace be with you."
