ὃ ἦν λελατομημένον ἐκ πέτρας,

Mary Magdalene and Mary the (mother) of James,
καὶ Σαλώμη ἠγόρασαν ἀρώματα

ἵνα ἐλθοῦσαι
so that they,after going there,
ἀλείψωσιν αὐτόν.

2 καὶ λίαν πρωῒ τῇ μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων
And very early on the first (day) of the week
ἔρχονται ἐπὶ τὸ μνημεῖον
they go to the tomb,
ἀνατείλαντος τοῦ ἡλίου.
after the sun had risen.
3 καὶ ἔλεγον πρὸς ἑαυτάς,
And they said to one another:
Τίς ἀποκυλίσει ἡμῖν τὸν λίθον
“Who will roll away for us the stone
ἐκ τῆς θύρας τοῦ μνημείου;
from the entrance of the tomb?”
4 καὶ ἀναβλέψασαι θεωροῦσιν
And havng looked up, they see
ὅτι ἀποκεκύλισται ὁ λίθος,
that has been rolled back the stone;
ἦν γὰρ μέγας σφόδρα.

5 καὶ εἰσελθοῦσαι εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον
And after entering the tomb
εἶδον νεανίσκον
they saw a young man,
καθήμενον ἐν τοῖς δεξιοῖς
sitting on the right side,
περιβεβλημένον στολὴν λευκήν,
dressed in a white dress,
καὶ ἐξεθαμβήθησαν.
and they were amazed.
6 ὁ δὲ λέγει αὐταῖς,
And he says to them:
Μὴ ἐκθαμβεῖσθε·
“Do not be amazed;
Ἰησοῦν ζητεῖτε τὸν Ναζαρηνὸν
you are looking for Jesus of Nazareth,
τὸν ἐσταυρωμένον·
who was crucified.
ἠγέρθη, οὐκ ἔστιν ὧδε·
He has awakened/been raised, he is not here.
ἴδε ὁ τόπος ὅπου ἔθηκαν αὐτόν.
See the place where they laid him.

7 ἀλλὰ ὑπάγετε
But come on,
εἴπατε τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ
tell his disciples
καὶ τῷ Πέτρῳ
and Peter
ὅτι Προάγει ὑμᾶς εἰς τὴν Γαλιλαίαν·
that he is going ahead of you to Galilee;
ἐκεῖ αὐτὸν ὄψεσθε,
there you will see him
καθὼς εἶπεν ὑμῖν.
just as he told you.”

8 καὶ ἐξελθοῦσαι
And after going out
ἔφυγον ἀπὸ τοῦ μνημείου,
they fled from the tomb
εἶχεν γὰρ αὐτὰς τρόμος καὶ ἔκστασις·
for they had been seized by fear and bewilderment,
καὶ οὐδενὶ οὐδὲν εἶπαν,
and they said nothing to anyone,
ἐφοβοῦντο γάρ.
for they were afraid.
