Spanish translation Prima pars Maria Magdalena y la otra María compraron perfumes y fueron a ungir a Jesús. Y muy temprano una mañana de sábado llegan al sepulcro, cuando ya ha salido el sol, aleluya. Secunda pars Y entrando en el sepulcro, vieron a un joven sentado a la derecha, cubierto con una túnica blanca, y ellas se asombraron. Él les dice: “Jesús, al que buscáis, el Nazareno crucificado, resucitó, no está aquí. He aquí el lugar donde lo pusieron. Aleluya”.

English translation Prima pars Mary Magdalene and the other Mary brought spices so that they might anoint Jesus's body. And very early on the Sabbath, they came to the tomb, just after sunrise. Alleluia. Secunda pars Entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side dressed in a white robe, and they were amazed. He said to them: "You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified: he has risen, he is not here. Look, there is the place they laid him." Alleluia.
