¹ Now on the first day of the week, very early, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the place and saw that the stone had been taken away from it.

² Then she went running to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple who was loved by Jesus, and said to them, They have taken away the Lord out of the place of the dead and we have no knowledge where they have put him.

⁵ And looking in, he saw the linen bands on the earth; but he did not go in,

⁶ Then Simon Peter came after him and went into the hole in the rock; and he saw the linen bands on the earth,

⁷ And the cloth, which had been round his head, not with the linen bands but rolled up in a place by itself.

⁸ Then the other disciple who came there first went in; and he saw and belief came to him.

⁹ For at that time they had no knowledge that the Writings said that he would have to come again from the dead.

¹⁰ So then the disciples went away again to their houses.

² The works of the Lord are great, searched out by all those who have delight in them.

¹¹ And while they went on their way, going on talking together, suddenly there were carriages and horses of fire separating them from one another and Elijah went up to heaven in a great wind.
