< Mark 16 >

1 When the Sabbath was past, Maryam Magdelaitha, and Maryam the mother of Yaquv, and Shalum, bought spices, that they might come and anoint him.
When the Sabbath was over, Mary of Magdala, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought some spices, so that they might go and anoint the body of Jesus.
2 Very early on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.
Very early on the first day of the week they went to the tomb, after sunrise.
3 They were saying among themselves, "Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?"
They were saying to one another, ‘Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?’
4 for it was very big. Looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back.
But, on looking up, they saw that the stone had already been rolled back; it was a very large one.
5 Entering into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were amazed.
Going into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on their right, in a white robe, and they were dismayed; but he said to them,
6 He said to them, "Do not be amazed. You seek Yeshua, the Natsraya, who has been crucified. He has risen. He is not here. Look, the place where they put him.
‘Do not be dismayed; you are looking for Jesus, the Nazarene, who has been crucified; he has risen, he is not here! Look! Here is the place where they laid him.
7 But go, tell his disciples and Kipha, 'He goes before you into Galila. There you will see him, as he said to you.'"
But go, and say to his disciples and to Peter “He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see him, as he told you.”’
8 They went out, and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had come on them. They said nothing to anyone; for they were afraid.
They went out, and fled from the tomb, for they were trembling and bewildered; and they did not say a word to anyone, for they were frightened.
9 (note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) Now when he had risen early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Maryam Magdelaitha, from whom he had cast out seven demons.
(note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) After his rising again, early on the first day of the week, Jesus appeared first of all to Mary of Magdala, from whom he had driven out seven demons.
10 She went and told those who had been with him, as they mourned and wept.
She went and told the news to those who had been with him and who were now in sorrow and tears;
11 When they heard that he was alive, and had been seen by her, they disbelieved.
yet even they, when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, did not believe it.
12 And after these things he appeared in another form to two of them, as they walked on their way into the country.
Afterwards, altered in appearance, he made himself known to two of them, as they were walking, on their way into the country.
13 And they went away and told it to the rest. They did not believe them, either.
They also went and told the rest, but they did not believe even them.
14 Afterward he was revealed to the eleven themselves as they were reclining, and he rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen him after he had risen.
Later on, he made himself known to the Eleven themselves as they were at a meal, and reproached them with their want of faith and their stubbornness, because they did not believe those who had seen him after he had risen from the dead.
15 And he said to them, "Go into all the world, and proclaim the Good News to the whole creation.
Then he said to them, ‘Go into all the world, and proclaim the good news to all creation.
16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who disbelieves will be condemned.
He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who refuses to believe will be condemned.
17 And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues;
Moreover these signs will attend those who believe. In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new languages;
18 they will pick up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not harm them; they will place their hands on the sick, and they will be made well."
they will take up snakes in their hands; and, if they drink any poison, it will not hurt them; they will place their hands on sick people and they will recover.’
19 So then the Lord Yeshua, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.
So the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat at the right hand of God.
20 And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the message by the signs that followed.
But they set out, and made the proclamation everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the message by the signs which attended it. But all that had been revealed to them they reported briefly to Peter and his companions. Afterwards Jesus himself sent them out, from east to west, the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation.
