Mark 16:1–9

¹When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, that they might come and anoint him.↗

²Very early on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.↗

³They were saying among themselves, “Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?”↗

⁴for it was very big. Looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back.↗

⁵Entering into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe; and they were amazed.↗

⁶He said to them, “Don’t be amazed. You seek Jesus, the Nazarene, who has been crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him!↗

⁷But go, tell his disciples and Peter, ‘He goes before you into Galilee. There you will see him, as he said to you.’”↗

⁸They went out, and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had come on them. They said nothing to anyone; for they were afraid.↗

⁹Now when he had risen early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons.↗
