5. And stooping down, he saw the swaddling clothes lying there; but he did not enter the tomb.

6. Simon Peter comes after him, and goes into the tomb, and sees only the swaddling clothes lying there,

7. and the cloth that was on his head, not lying with swaddling clothes, but specially twisted in another place.

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

15. Jesus said to her, "Woman! Why are you crying? Who are you looking for? She, thinking that it was the gardener, said to Him, "Lord! if thou hast carried Him out, tell me where thou hast laid Him, and I will take Him.

18. Mary Magdalene goes and announces to her disciples that she has seen the Lord and that He has told her this.

19. On the same first day of the week, in the evening, when the doors of the house where his disciples were gathered were shut for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, "Peace be unto you!

20. When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet and his side. The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.

21. And Jesus said to them a second time, "Peace be unto you! as the Father has sent me, so do I send you.

22. When he had said this, he breathed and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit."

23. To whom you forgive sins, they will be forgiven; on whom you leave, they will remain.
