John 20:13-15
New English Translation
13 They said[a] to her, “Woman,[b] why are you weeping?” Mary replied,[c] “They have taken my Lord away, and I do not know where they have put him!” 14 When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there,[d] but she did not know that it was Jesus.
15 Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Who are you looking for?” Because she[e] thought he was the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him.”
