¹ And I looked, and behold, in the expanse that was over the head of the cherubim there appeared above them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.

² And he spoke unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Come in between the wheels, under the cherub, and fill the hollow of thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and scatter them over the city. And he went in in my sight.

³ And the cherubim stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.

⁴ And the glory of Jehovah mounted up from the cherub, [and came] over the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of Jehovah's glory.

⁵ And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty ùGod when he speaketh.

⁶ And it came to pass when he had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubim, then he went in, and stood beside the wheel.

⁷ And the cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and took and put it into the hands of him [that was] clothed with linen; who took [it], and went out.

⁸ And there appeared in the cherubim the form of a man's hand under their wings.

⁹ And I looked, and behold, four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside one cherub, and another wheel beside another cherub; and the appearance of the wheels was as the look of a chrysolite stone.

¹⁰ And as for their appearance, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel were in the midst of a wheel.

¹¹ When they went, they went upon their four sides; they turned not as they went, but to the place whither the head looked they followed it: they turned not as they went.

¹² And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels were full of eyes round about, in them four [and] their wheels.

¹³ As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing, Galgal.

¹⁴ And every one had four faces: the first face was the face of a cherub, and the second face the face of a man, and the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.

¹⁵ And the cherubim mounted up. This was the living creature that I saw by the river Chebar.

¹⁶ And when the cherubim went, the wheels went beside them; and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also turned not from beside them.

¹⁷ When they stood, these stood; and when they mounted up, these mounted up with them: for the spirit of the living creature was in them.

¹⁸ And the glory of Jehovah departed from over the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubim.

¹⁹ And the cherubim lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight, when they went out; and the wheels were beside them; and they stood at the door of the east gate of Jehovah's house; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.

²⁰ This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar; and I knew that they were cherubim.

²¹ Each one had four faces, and every one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.

²² And as for the likeness of their faces, they were the faces which I had seen by the river Chebar -- their appearance and themselves: they went every one straight before them.

¹ Now on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene went early, while it was still dark, to the tomb, and saw the stone taken away from the tomb.

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 Therefore Peter and the other disciple went out, and they went toward the tomb.

⁴ They both ran together. The other disciple outran Peter, and came to the tomb first.

⁵ Stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths lying, yet he didn't enter in.

⁶ Then Simon Peter came, following him, and entered into the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying,

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 So then the other disciple who came first to the tomb also entered in, and he saw and believed.

⁹ For as yet they didn't know the Scripture, that he must rise from the dead.

¹⁰ So the disciples went away again to their own homes.

¹¹ But Mary was standing outside at the tomb weeping. So, as she wept, she stooped and looked into the tomb,

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 They told 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 When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing, and didn't know that it was Jesus.

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 Jesus said to her, "Mary." She turned and said to him, "Rabboni!" which is to say, "Teacher!"

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 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had said these things to her.

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 midst, and said to them, "Peace be to you."

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 Jesus therefore said to them again, "Peace be to you. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you."

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

²³ Whoever's sins you forgive, they are forgiven them. Whoever's sins you retain, they have been retained."

²⁴ But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, wasn't with them when Jesus came.

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, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe."

²⁶ After eight days again his disciples were inside, and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, the doors being locked, and stood in the midst, and said, "Peace be to you."

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 Thomas answered him, "My Lord and my God!"

²⁹ Jesus said to him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen, and have believed."

³⁰ Therefore Jesus did many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book;

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.
