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.
When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint Jesus' body.
2 And, very early, on the first of the week, they are coming towards the tomb—when, the sun, arose.
Very early in the morning of the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb.
3 And they were saying one to another—Who, shall roll away for us the stone, out of the door of the tomb?
On the way, they were saying to one another, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb for us?”
4 And, looking up, they observe that the stone hath been rolled up, —for it was exceeding great.
But when they arrived, they looked up and saw that the stone, which was very large, had already been rolled away.
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.
As they went into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white robe, and they were alarmed.
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!
But he said to them, “Do not be alarmed; you seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen; he is not here. Behold, this is 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.
Now go tell his disciples and Peter that he is going ahead of you to Galilee. There you will 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.
So they went out and fled from the tomb, and trembling and amazement seized them. But they did not say anything 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.) In the morning on the first day of the week, after Jesus had risen, he 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 then went and told 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.
But when they heard that he was alive and that she had seen him, they 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;
After this, Jesus appeared in a different form to two of his followers as they were walking along in the countryside.
13 and, they, departing, bare tidings unto the rest, —but, even them, they believed not.
They went back and told the others, but they did not believe them either.
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;
Later Jesus appeared to the eleven as they were reclining at the table, and he rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they had not believed those who had seen him after he had risen.
15 and he said unto them—Go ye into all the world, and proclaim the glad-message, to the whole creation:
He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.
16 He that hath believed, and been immersed, shall be saved; but, he that hath disbelieved, shall be condemned:
Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe 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;
And these signs will accompany those who believe: They will cast out demons in my name, they will speak in new tongues,
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 pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will certainly not harm them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will get 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:
After the Lord had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven, and he sat down 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 the disciples went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked through them and confirmed the message by the signs that accompanied it. Amen.
