The Resurrection

The First Glorious Mystery  ·  The Glorious Mysteries, prayed on Wednesday and Sunday

¹And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalen and Mary the mother of James and Salome bought sweet spices, that coming, they might anoint Jesus. ²And very early in the morning, the first day of the week, they come to the sepulchre, the sun being now risen. ³And they said one to another: Who shall roll us back the stone from the door of the sepulchre? ⁴And looking, they saw the stone rolled back. For it was very great. ⁵And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed with a white robe: and they were astonished. ⁶Who saith to them: Be not affrighted. you seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen: he is not here. Behold the place where they laid him. ⁷But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee. There you shall see him, as he told you.
