1 Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene
went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the
entrance. 2 So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the
one Jesus loved, and said, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and
we don’t know where they have put him!”
3 So Peter and the other disciple started for the tomb. 4 Both were running,
but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. 5 He bent over
and looked in at the strips of linen lying there but did not go in. 6 Then Simon
Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb. He saw the
strips of linen lying there, 7 as well as the cloth that had been wrapped around
Jesus’ head. The cloth was still lying in its place, separate from the linen.
8 Finally the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went inside.
He saw and believed. 9 (They still did not understand from Scripture that
Jesus had to rise from the dead.) 10 Then the disciples went back to where
they were staying. This is the Gospel of our LORD
