Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene

11 But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept she stooped to look into the tomb.
12 And 1she saw 2two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and one at the feet.
13 They said to her, 3"Woman, why are you weeping?" She said to them, 4"They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him."
14 Having said this, she turned around and 5saw Jesus standing, 6but she did not know that it was Jesus.
15 Jesus said to her, 7"Woman, why are you weeping? 8Whom are you seeking?" Supposing him to be 9the gardener, she said to him, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away."
16 Jesus said to her, "Mary." She turned and said to him in Aramaic,[a]10"Rabboni!" (which means Teacher).
