John 20:4-15 New English Translation (NET)

4. The two were running together, but the other disciple ran faster than Peter and reached the tomb first.

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

6. Then Simon Peter, who had been following him, arrived and went right into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen cloth lying there,

7. and the face cloth, which had been around Jesus’ head, not lying with the strips of linen cloth but rolled up in a place by itself.

8. Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, came in, and he saw and believed.

9. (For they did not yet understand the scripture that Jesus must rise from the dead.)

10. So the disciples went back to their homes.

11. But Mary stood outside the tomb weeping. As she wept, she bent down and looked into the tomb.

12. And she saw two angels in white sitting where Jesus’ body had been lying, one at the head and one at the feet.

13. They said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” Mary replied, “They have taken my Lord away, and I do not know where they have put him!”

14. When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know that it was Jesus.

15. Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Who are you looking for?” Because she thought he was the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him.”
