< Mark 16 >

1 Now when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, in order to go and anoint Jesus.
And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the [mother] of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him.
2 Very early on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.
And very early in the morning the first [day] of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun.
3 And they were saying among themselves, “Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?”
And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre?
4 (because it was very large), but when they looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away!
And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great.
5 Upon entering the tomb they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.
And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.
6 But he said to them: “Don't be alarmed. You are looking for Jesus the Natsarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He isn't here! See, the place where they laid Him.
And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.
7 But go, tell His disciples, also Peter: ‘He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see Him, as He said to you.’”
But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.
8 Trembling and bewildered they went out and fled from the tomb; and they said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid.
And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any [man]; for they were afraid.
9 (note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) Having risen early on the first day of the week, Jesus appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom He had cast seven demons.
(note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) Now when [Jesus] was risen early the first [day] of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.
10 She went and reported to those who had been with Him, as they were mourning and weeping.
[And] she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.
11 When they heard that He was alive and had been seen by her, they did not believe.
And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.
12 After these things He appeared in a different form to two of them as they were walking, going into the country.
After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country.
13 So they returned and reported to the rest; neither did they believe them.
And they went and told [it] unto the residue: neither believed they them.
14 Later He appeared to the eleven as they were reclining at the table; and He rebuked their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He had risen.
Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.
15 Then He said to them: “Go to the whole world and proclaim the Gospel to all creation.
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17 And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new languages;
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 they will remove ‘snakes’; and if they drink anything deadly, it will not hurt them at all; they will lay hands on sick people, and they will get well.”
They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
19 So then, after the Lord had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven and sat down at God's right.
So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
20 And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the message by the accompanying signs. Amen.
And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with [them], and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
