Gospel of Mark 16: 1 - 8 (CEB translation)
Common English Bible, 2011
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. Very early on
the first day of the week, just after
sunrise, they came to the tomb.
They were saying to each other,
"Who's going to roll the stone away
from the entrance for us?"
When they looked up, they saw that
the stone had been rolled away.
(And it was a very large stone!)
Going into the tomb, they saw
a young man in a white robe
seated on the right side; and
they were startled. But he said
to them, "Don't be alarmed! You
are looking for Jesus of Nazareth,
who was crucified. He has been
raised. He isn't here. Look,
here's the place where they laid him.
Go, tell his disciples, especially
Peter, that he is going ahead of you
into Galilee. You will see him there,
just as he told you." Overcome with
terror and dread, they fled from
the tomb. They said nothing to
anyone, because they were afraid.
