Mark 16:1-5 Common English Bible (CEB)

1. When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they could go and anoint Jesus’ dead body.

2. Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they came to the tomb.

3. They were saying to each other, "Who’s going to roll the stone away from the entrance for us?"

4. When they looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away. (And it was a very large stone!)

5. Going into the tomb, they saw a young man in a white robe seated on the right side; and they were startled.
