50 Now at dawn on the Lord's day, Mary Magdalene, a disciple of the Lord, afraid because of the Jews (since they were inflamed by anger), had not done at the Lord's grave what women are accustomed to do for their loved ones who've died. (GPE) 51 Taking her friends with her, she went to the grave where he was laid. (GPE) 52 And they were afraid lest the Jews might see them, and were saying, "If on the day he was crucified we weren't able to weep and mourn, even now we might do this on his grave. (GPE) 53 But who will roll away for us the stone that has been placed at the door of the grave so that we might go in, sit by him, and do our duties? (GPE) 54 Because the stone is great, and we're afraid lest someone sees us. And if we aren't able, at least let's place at the door what we're bringing in memory of him, and we'll weep and mourn until we return to our house." (GPE)
