John 20:4-9 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

4. They were both running, but the other follower ran faster than Peter. So the other follower reached the tomb first.

5. He bent down and looked in. He saw the strips of linen cloth lying there, but he did not go in.

6. Then following him came Simon Peter. He went into the tomb and saw the strips of linen lying there.

7. He also saw the cloth that had been around Jesus’ head. The cloth was folded up and laid in a different place from the strips of linen.

8. Then the other follower, who had reached the tomb first, also went in. He saw and believed.

9. (These followers did not yet understand from the Scriptures that Jesus must rise from death.)
