John 20:1-17 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

1. And on the first day of the week Miryam from Mag̅dala came early to the tomb, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been removed from the tomb.

2. So she ran and came to Shim‛on Kĕpha, and to the other taught one whom יהושע loved, and said to them, “They have taken the Master out of the tomb, and we do not know where they laid Him.”

3. Then Kĕpha and the other taught one went out, and they were going to the tomb,

4. and the two were running together, but the other taught one outran Kĕpha and came to the tomb first.

5. And stooping down he saw the linen wrappings lying, but he did not go in.

6. Then Shim‛on Kĕpha came, following him, and went into the tomb. And he saw the linen wrappings lying,

7. and the cloth which had been on His head, not lying with the linen wrappings, but folded up in a place by itself.

8. So, then, the other taught one, who came to the tomb first, also went in. And he saw and believed.

9. For they did not yet know the Scripture, that He has to rise again from the dead.

10. Therefore the taught ones went away again, by themselves.

11. But Miryam was standing outside by the tomb weeping. Then as she wept, she stooped down to the tomb,

12. and saw two messengers in white sitting, one at the head and the other at the feet, where the body of יהושע had been laid.

13. And they said to her, “Woman, why do you weep?” She said to them, “Because they took away my Master, and I do not know where they laid Him.”

14. And having said this, she turned around and saw יהושע standing, but she did not know that it was יהושע.

15. יהושע said to her, “Woman, why do you weep? Whom do you seek?” Thinking He was the gardener, she said to Him, “Master, if You have carried Him away, say to me where You put Him, and I shall take Him away.”

16. יהושע said to her, “Miryam!” She turned and said to Him, “Rabboni!” (which means Teacher).

17. יהושע said to her, “Do not hold on to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father. But go to My brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My Elohim and your Elohim.’ ”
