< Mark 16 >
1 And, the Sabbath having passed, Mary the Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices, that, coming, they might anoint him.
And when the Sabbath had passed, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought aromatic spices, so that when they arrived they could anoint Jesus.
2 And, very early, on the first of the week, they are coming towards the tomb—when, the sun, arose.
And very early in the morning, on the first of the Sabbaths, they went to the tomb, the sun having now risen.
3 And they were saying one to another—Who, shall roll away for us the stone, out of the door of the tomb?
And they said to one another, “Who will roll back the stone for us, away from the entrance of the tomb?”
4 And, looking up, they observe that the stone hath been rolled up, —for it was exceeding great.
And looking, they saw that the stone was rolled back. For certainly it was very large.
5 And, entering into the tomb, they saw a young man, sitting on the right, clothed with a white robe, —and they were greatly alarmed.
And upon entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, covered with a white robe, and they were astonished.
6 But, he, saith unto them—Be not alarmed! Jesus, ye are seeking, the Nazarene, the crucified: He hath arisen! he is not here, —See! the place where they laid him!
And he said to them, “Do not become frightened. You are seeking Jesus of Nazareth, the Crucified One. He has risen. He is not here. Behold, the place where they laid him.
7 But go your way, tell his disciples, and Peter—He is going before you into Galilee: there, shall ye yourselves see him, —according as he said unto you.
But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you into Galilee. There you shall see him, just as he told you.”
8 And, going out, they fled from the tomb, for, trembling and transport, were holding them; and, unto no one, said they, anything, for they were afraid.
But they, going out, fled from the tomb. For trembling and fear had overwhelmed them. And they said nothing to anyone. For they were afraid.
9 (note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) And, arising early, on the first of the week, he was manifested, first, unto Mary the Magdalene, from whom he had cast, seven demons.
(note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) But he, rising early on the first Sabbath, appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons.
10 She, going her way, bare tidings unto them who had come to be with him, as they were mourning and weeping.
She went and announced it to those who had been with him, while they were mourning and weeping.
11 And, they, hearing that he was living, and had been looked upon by her, disbelieved.
And they, upon hearing that he was alive and that he had been seen by her, did not believe it.
12 But, after these things, unto two from among them, as they were walking, was he manifested, in a different form, as they were going unto a country place;
But after these events, he was shown in another likeness to two of them walking, as they were going out to the countryside.
13 and, they, departing, bare tidings unto the rest, —but, even them, they believed not.
And they, returning, reported it to the others; neither did they believe them.
14 But, afterwards, unto the eleven themselves, as they reclined, was he manifested, and he upbraided their disbelief and hardness of heart, —because, them who had looked upon him when arisen [from among the dead] they believed not;
Finally, he appeared to the eleven, as they sat at table. And he rebuked them for their incredulity and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen that he had risen again.
15 and he said unto them—Go ye into all the world, and proclaim the glad-message, to the whole creation:
And he said to them: “Go forth to the whole world and preach the Gospel to every creature.
16 He that hath believed, and been immersed, shall be saved; but, he that hath disbelieved, shall be condemned:
Whoever will have believed and been baptized will be saved. Yet truly, whoever will not have believed will be condemned.
17 Signs, moreover, shall follow, them who have believed, —these: —In my name, shall they cast, demons, out, with tongues, shall they speak, —[and, in their hands, ] they shall take up, serpents;
Now these signs will accompany those who believe. In my name, they shall cast out demons. They will speak in new languages.
18 And, if, any deadly thing, they have drunk, in nowise, shall it, hurt, them: Upon sick persons, shall they lay, hands, and, well, shall they remain.
They will take up serpents, and, if they drink anything deadly, it will not harm them. They shall lay their hands upon the sick, and they will be well.”
19 The Lord [Jesus], therefore, on the one hand, after talking with them, was taken up into heaven, and sat down on the right hand of God:
And indeed, the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and he sits at the right hand of God.
20 They, on the other hand, going forth, proclaimed on every side, the Lord, co-working, and confirming, the word, through, the closely following signs. OTHERWISE. All the things given in charge unto the companions of Peter, they concisely reported. But, after these things, Jesus also, himself, from east even unto west, sent forth, through them, the sacred and incorruptible proclamation of the age-abiding salvation.
Then they, setting out, preached everywhere, with the Lord cooperating and confirming the word by the accompanying signs.
