John 20:1-6 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

1. Early on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb. It was still dark. She saw that the stone had been moved away from the entrance.

2. So she ran to Simon Peter and another disciple, the one Jesus loved. She said, "They have taken the Lord out of the tomb! We don't know where they have put him!"

3. So Peter and the other disciple started out for the tomb.

4. Both of them were running. The other disciple ran faster than Peter. He reached the tomb first.

5. He bent over and looked in at the strips of linen lying there. But he did not go in.

6. Then Simon Peter, who was behind him, arrived. He went into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen lying there.
