She, supposing that he had been the gardener, said unto him, "Sir if thou have borne him hence tell me where thou hast laid him, that I may fetch him." Jesus said unto her, "Mary." She turned herself, and said unto him, "Rabboni," which is to say, Master. Jesus said unto her, "Touch me not, for I am not yet ascended to my father. But go to my brethren and say unto them, I ascend unto my father, and your father: to my God and your God." Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken such things unto her.
