1 El primer día de la semana, muy de mañana, cuando todavía estaba oscuro, María Magdalena fue al sepulcro y vio que habían movido la piedra que cerraba la entrada.
1 Now on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene went early, while it was still dark, to the tomb, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb.
2 Así que fue corriendo a donde estaban Simón Pedro y el discípulo al que Jesús quería mucho, y les dijo: ―¡Se han llevado del sepulcro al Señor, y no sabemos dónde lo han puesto!
2 Therefore she ran and came to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have laid him!”
3 Pedro y el otro discípulo salieron hacia el sepulcro.
3 Therefore Peter and the other disciple went out, and they went toward the tomb.
4 Los dos iban corriendo, pero como el otro discípulo corría más rápido que Pedro, llegó primero al sepulcro.
4 They both ran together. The other disciple outran Peter and came to the tomb first.
5 Se inclinó para mirar, y vio las vendas, pero no entró.
5 Stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths lying there; yet he didn’t enter in.
6 Tras él llegó Simón Pedro, y entró en el sepulcro. Vio allí las vendas,
6 Then Simon Peter came, following him, and entered into the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying,
7 y la tela que había cubierto la cabeza de Jesús. Pero la tela no estaba con las vendas sino enrollada en lugar aparte.
7 and the cloth that had been on his head, not lying with the linen cloths, but rolled up in a place by itself.
8 Entonces entró también el otro discípulo, el que había llegado primero al sepulcro; y vio y creyó.
8 So then the other disciple who came first to the tomb also entered in, and he saw and believed.
9 Hasta ese momento no habían entendido la Escritura que dice que Jesús tenía que resucitar.
9 For as yet they didn’t know the Scripture, that he must rise from the dead.
10 Los discípulos regresaron a su casa,
10 So the disciples went away again to their own homes.
11 pero María se quedó afuera del sepulcro llorando. Mientras lloraba, se inclinó para mirar dentro del sepulcro
11 But Mary was standing outside at the tomb weeping. So as she wept, she stooped and looked into the tomb,
12 y vio a dos ángeles vestidos de blanco, sentados donde había estado el cuerpo de Jesús; uno a la cabecera y otro a los pies.
12 and she saw two angels in white sitting, one at the head and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.
13 Le preguntaron los ángeles: ―¿Por qué lloras, mujer? Ella les respondió: ―Porque se han llevado a mi Señor, y no sé dónde lo han puesto.
13 They asked her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “Because they have taken away my Lord, and I don’t know where they have laid him.”
14 Acabando de decir esto, volvió la mirada y vio allí a Jesús de pie, aunque ella no sabía que era él.
14 When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing, and didn’t know that it was Jesus.
15 Jesús le dijo: ―¿Por qué lloras? ¿A quién buscas? Ella creyó que era el que cuidaba el huerto, y le dijo: ―Señor, si usted se lo ha llevado, dígame dónde lo ha puesto, y yo iré por él.
15 Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Who are you looking for?” She, supposing him to be the gardener, said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away.”
16 Jesús le dijo: ―María. Ella se volvió y le dijo: ―¡Raboni! (que en arameo significa: Maestro).
16 Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned and said to him, “Rabboni!” which is to say, “Teacher!”
17 Jesús le dijo: ―Suéltame, porque todavía no he ido a reunirme con mi Padre. Pero ve a mis hermanos y diles: “Voy a reunirme con mi Padre, que es el Padre de ustedes; con mi Dios, que es el Dios de ustedes”.
17 Jesus said to her, “Don’t hold me, for I haven’t yet ascended to my Father; but go to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”
18 María Magdalena fue a darles la noticia a los discípulos: «¡He visto al Señor!», y les contaba lo que él le había dicho.
18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had said these things to her.
19 El primer día de la semana por la tarde, mientras los discípulos estaban reunidos a puerta cerrada por temor a los judíos, entró Jesús. Se puso en medio de ellos y los saludó diciendo: ―¡La paz sea con ustedes!
19 When therefore it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were locked where the disciples were assembled, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the middle and said to them, “Peace be to you.”
20 Después de decir esto, les mostró las manos y el costado. Los discípulos se alegraron de ver al Señor.
20 When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples therefore were glad when they saw the Lord.
21 Jesús volvió a decir: ―¡La paz sea con ustedes! Como mi Padre me envió, así yo los envío a ustedes.
21 Jesus therefore said to them again, “Peace be to you. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you.”
22 Luego sopló sobre ellos y les dijo: ―Reciban el Espíritu Santo.
22 When he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit!
23 A los que ustedes les perdonen sus pecados, les serán perdonados; a los que ustedes no se los perdonen, no les serán perdonados.
23 If you forgive anyone’s sins, they have been forgiven them. If you retain anyone’s sins, they have been retained.”
24 Tomás, uno de los doce, al que le decían el Gemelo, no había estado con los discípulos cuando Jesús llegó.
24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, wasn’t with them when Jesus came.
25 Así que los otros discípulos le dijeron: ―¡Hemos visto al Señor! Tomás les respondió: ―Si no veo las heridas de los clavos en sus manos y meto en ellas mi dedo, y mi mano en su costado, no lo creeré.
25 The other disciples therefore said to him, “We have seen the Lord!” But he said to them, “Unless I see in his hands the print of the nails, put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”
26 Ocho días después, estaban los discípulos reunidos otra vez en la casa, y Tomás estaba con ellos. Las puertas estaban cerradas, pero Jesús entró, se puso en medio de ellos y los saludó diciendo: ―¡La paz sea con ustedes!
26 After eight days, again his disciples were inside and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, the doors being locked, and stood in the middle, and said, “Peace be to you.”
27 Luego le dijo a Tomás: ―Pon aquí tu dedo y mira mis manos. Trae tu mano y métela en mi costado, y no seas incrédulo sino que debes creer.
27 Then he said to Thomas, “Reach here your finger, and see my hands. Reach here your hand, and put it into my side. Don’t be unbelieving, but believing.”
28 Tomás dijo: ―¡Señor mío y Dios mío!
28 Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!”
29 Jesús le dijo: ―Tú has creído porque me has visto; dichosos los que no han visto y aun así creen.
29 Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.”
30 Jesús hizo muchas otras señales milagrosas delante de sus discípulos que no están escritas en este libro.
30 Therefore Jesus did many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book;
31 Pero estas se han escrito para que ustedes crean que Jesús es el Cristo, el Hijo de Dios, y para que al creer en su nombre tengan vida.
31 but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Mary Magdalene had brought the news to His disciples, Peter and John, that the Lord was taken away from the sepulchre; and they, when they came thither, found only the linen clothes wherewith the body had been shrouded; and what else could they believe but what she had told them, and what she had herself also believed?

Full of feeling somehow is the female sex, and more inclined to pity. I say this, lest thou shouldest wonder how it could be that Mary wept bitterly at the tomb, while Peter was in no way so affected. For, "The disciples," it saith, "went away unto their own home"; but she stood shedding tears.

… and that this same suffered and rose again, as John, the disciple of the Lord, verifies, saying: "But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing ye might have eternal life in His name," --foreseeing these blasphemous systems which divide the Lord, as far as lies in their power, …
They are encouraged in this supposition by the fact that the Lord Jesus after His resurrection breathed on His disciples, and said, "Receive ye the Holy Spirit." From this they suppose that the same thing was effected in either case, as if the evangelist had gone on to say, And they became living souls.
Read in context · Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, series 1, vol. 2 (1887)
But lest any one from simplicity or perverse ingenuity should suppose that Christ is but equal in honour to righteous men, from His saying, I ascend to My Father, and your Father, it is well to make this distinction beforehand, that the name of the Father is one, but the power of His operation manifold.
