恭讀聖路加福音 24:1-12

一周的第一天,天還很早,婦女們便帶著預備好的香料,來到墳墓那裡,見石頭已由墓穴滾開了。她們進去,不見了主耶穌的遺體。
婦女們正為此事疑慮的時候,忽然有兩個人,穿著耀目的衣服,站在她們身邊。她們都害怕,於是把臉垂向地上。那兩個人對婦女們說:「你們為什麼在死人中找活人呢?他不在這裡了,他已經復活了。你們應當記得:他還在加里肋亞時,怎樣告訴你們說:人子必須被交付於罪人之手,被釘在十字架上,並在第三日復活。」婦女們於是想起了耶穌的話。
婦女們從墳墓那裡回去,把這一切事,報告給那十一位門徒,及其餘的眾人。這些婦女是瑪利亞瑪達肋納,及約安納,及雅各伯的母親瑪利亞;其餘同她們一起的婦女,也把這些事,報告給宗徒。但婦女們的這些話,在他們看來,好像是無稽之談,不敢相信。
伯多祿卻起來,跑到墳墓那裡,屈身向裡面窺看,只看見殮布,就走了,心裡驚訝所發生的事。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 24:1-12

1 But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices which they had prepared. 2 And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, 3 but when they went in they did not find the body. 4 While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel; 5 and as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead? 6 Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee, 7 that the Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise.” 8 And they remembered his words, 9 and returning from the tomb they told all this to the eleven and to all the rest. 10 Now it was Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James and the other women with them who told this to the apostles; 11 but these words seemed to them an idle tale, and they did not believe them. 12 But Peter rose and ran to the tomb; stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths by themselves; and he went home wondering what had happened.
