< Mark 16 >

1 When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices, that they might come and anoint him.
And when the sabbath had passed, Mary Magdalena, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought aromatics, 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 in the morning of the first day of the week, they came to the sepulchre as the sun arose.
3 They were saying among themselves, "Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?"
And they said among them. selves: Who will roll back for us the stone from the door of the sepulchre?
4 for it was very big. Looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back.
And they looked, and saw that the stone was rolled away; for it was very great.
5 Entering into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were amazed.
And entering the sepulchre, they saw a youth sitting on the right hand, and clothed in a white robe: and they were in perturbation.
6 He said to them, "Do not be amazed. You seek Jesus, the Nazarene, who has been crucified. He has risen. He is not here. Look, the place where they put him.
But he said to them: Be not affrighted. Ye are seeking Jesus the Nazarean, who was crucified. He is risen; he is not here. Behold the place where he was laid.
7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter, 'He goes before you into Galilee. There you will see him, as he said to you.'"
But go, tell his disciples and Cephas: Lo, he precedeth you into Galilee; there will ye see him, as he said to 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.
And when they heard, they fled and left the sepulchre; for astonishment and trembling had seized them; and they said nothing to any one, for they were in fear.
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 Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons.
(note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) And in the morning of the first day of the week, he arose; and he appeared first to Mary Magdalena, from whom he had cast out seven demons.
10 She went and told those who had been with him, as they mourned and wept.
And she went and told them that had been with him, while they were mourning and weeping.
11 When they heard that he was alive, and had been seen by her, they disbelieved.
And they, when they heard the women say that he was alive, and that he had appeared to them, did not believe them.
12 And after these things he appeared in another form to two of them, as they walked on their way into the country.
After this he appeared, under another aspect, to two of them as they walked and went into the country.
13 And they went away and told it to the rest. They did not believe them, either.
And these went and told the rest; but they would not believe 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.
And at last, he appeared to the eleven: as they reclined at table; and he reproved the slenderness of their faith, and the hardness of their heart; because they believed not those who had seen him actually risen.
15 And he said to them, "Go into all the world, and proclaim the Good News to the whole creation.
And he said to them: Go ye into all the world, and proclaim my tidings in the whole creation.
16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who disbelieves will be condemned.
He that believeth, and is baptized, liveth; but he that believeth not, is condemned.
17 And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues;
And these signs shall attend them that believe: In my name, they will cast out demons; and in new tongues will they speak.
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."
And they will take up serpents; and if they should drink a deadly poison, it will not harm them; and they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will be healed.
19 So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.
And Jesus, our Lord, after he had conversed with them, ascended to 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 signs that followed.
And they went forth, and preached everywhere: and our Lord aided them, and confirmed their discourses by the signs which they wrought. Completion of the Holy Gospels, the announcement of Mark; which he uttered and proclaimed in Latin at Rome.
