Mark 16
1 When the Sabbath was past, Miriam from Magdala, and Miriam the mother of Jacob, and Salome, bought spices, that they might come and anoint him.
And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of James, and Salome, got spices, so that they might come and put them on him.
2 Very early on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.
And very early after dawn on the first day of the week, they came at the time of the coming up of the sun to the place where the body had been put.
3 They were saying among themselves, "Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?"
And they were saying among themselves, Who will get the stone rolled away from the door for us?
4 for it was very big. Looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back.
And looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back; and it was of great size.
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 when they went in, they saw a young man seated on the right side, dressed in a white robe; and they were full of wonder.
6 He said to them, "Do not be amazed. You seek Yeshua of Natzeret, who has been crucified. He has risen. He is not here. Look, the place where they put him.
And he said to them, Do not be troubled: you are looking for Jesus, the Nazarene, who has been put to death on the cross; he has come back from the dead; he is not here: see, the place where they put him!
7 But go, tell his talmidim and Peter, 'He goes before you into Galil. There you will see him, as he said to you.'"
But go, say to his disciples and to Peter, He goes before you into Galilee: there you will 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 they went out quickly from the place, because fear and great wonder had come on them: and they said nothing to anyone, because they were full of fear that ...
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 Miriam from Magdala, from whom he had cast out seven demons.
(note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) Now when he came back from the dead early on the first day of the week, he went first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had sent out seven evil spirits.
10 She went and told those who had been with him, as they mourned and wept.
She went and gave news of it to those who had been with him, while they were sorrowing and weeping.
11 When they heard that he was alive, and had been seen by her, they disbelieved.
And they, when it came to their ears that he was living, and had been seen by her, had no belief in it.
12 And after these things he appeared in another form to two of them, as they walked on their way into the country.
And after these things he was seen in another form by two of them, while 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.
And they went away and gave news of it to the rest; and they had no belief in what was said.
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 later he was seen by the eleven themselves while they were taking food; and he said sharp words to them because they had no faith and their hearts were hard, and because they had no belief in those who had seen him after he had come back from the dead.
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 into all the world, and give the good news to everyone.
16 He who believes and is immersed will be saved; but he who disbelieves will be condemned.
He who has faith and is given baptism will get salvation; but he who has not faith will be judged.
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 will be with those who have faith: in my name they will send out evil spirits; and they will make use of 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, and if there is poison in their drink, it will do them no evil; they will put their hands on those who are ill, and they will get well.
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 then the Lord Jesus, after he had said these words to them, was taken up into heaven and took his seat 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.
And they went out, preaching everywhere, the Lord working with them, and giving witness to the word by the signs which came after. So be it.
