Mark 16
1 And the sabbath having past, Mary the Magdalene, and Mary of James, and Salome, bought spices, that having come, they may anoint him,
When the Sabbath was past, Mary the Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices that they might embalm Jesus.
2 and early in the morning of the first of the sabbaths, they come unto the sepulchre, at the rising of the sun,
And early in the morning, the first day of the week, they came to the tomb about sunrise.
3 and they said among themselves, 'Who shall roll away for us the stone out of the door of the sepulchre?'
And they said among themselves, Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb? (for it was very large.)
4 And having looked, they see that the stone hath been rolled away — for it was very great,
But when they looked, they saw that the stone had been rolled away.
5 and having entered into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right hand, arrayed in a long white robe, and they were amazed.
Then entering the tomb, they beheld a youth sitting on the right side, clothed in a white robe, and they were frightened.
6 And he saith to them, 'Be not amazed, ye seek Jesus the Nazarene, the crucified: he did rise — he is not here; lo, the place where they laid him!
But he said to them, Be not frightened; you seek Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He is risen, he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.
7 and go, say to his disciples, and Peter, that he doth go before you to Galilee; there ye shall see him, as he said to you.'
But go, say to his disciples, and to Peter, He is gone before you to Galilee; where you shall see him, as he told you.
8 And, having come forth quickly, they fled from the sepulchre, and trembling and amazement had seized them, and to no one said they anything, for they were afraid.
The women then getting out, fled from the tomb, seized with trembling and consternation; but said nothing to any one, they were so terrified.
9 (note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) And he, having risen in the morning of the first of the sabbaths, did appear first to Mary the Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven demons;
(note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) Jesus having arisen early the first day of the week, appeared first to Mary the Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven demons.
10 she having gone, told those who had been with him, mourning and weeping;
She went and informed those who had attended him, who were in affliction and tears.
11 and they, having heard that he is alive, and was seen by her, did not believe.
But when they heard that he was alive, and had been seen by her, they did not believe it.
12 And after these things, to two of them, as they are going into a field, walking, he was manifested in another form,
Afterward he appeared in another form to two of them, as they traveled on foot into the country.
13 and they having gone, told to the rest; not even them did they believe.
These being returned, informed the other disciples, but neither did they believe him.
14 Afterwards, as they are reclining (at meat), he was manifested to the eleven, and did reproach their unbelief and stiffness of heart, because they believed not those having seen him being raised;
At length he appeared to the eleven, as they were eating, and reproached them with their incredulity and obstinacy, in disbelieving those who had seen him after his resurrection.
15 and he said to them, 'Having gone to all the world, proclaim the good news to all the creation;
And he said unto them, Go throughout all the world, proclaim the glad tidings to the whole creation.
16 he who hath believed, and hath been baptized, shall be saved; and he who hath not believed, shall be condemned.
He who shall believe, and be immersed, shall be saved; but he who shall not believe, shall be condemned.
17 'And signs shall accompany those believing these things; in my name demons they shall cast out; with new tongues they shall speak;
And these miraculous powers shall attend the believers: -- In my name they shall expel demons. They shall speak in languages unknown to them before.
18 serpents they shall take up; and if any deadly thing they may drink, it shall not hurt them; on the ailing they shall lay hands, and they shall be well.'
They shall handle serpents with safety. And if they drink poison, it shall not hurt them. They shall cure the sick by laying their hands upon them.
19 The Lord, then, indeed, after speaking to them, was received up to the heaven, and sat on the right hand of God;
Now, after the Lord had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.
20 and they, having gone forth, did preach everywhere, the Lord working with [them], and confirming the word, through the signs following. Amen.
As for them, they went out and proclaimed the tidings everywhere, the Lord co-operating with them, and confirming their doctrine by the miracles with which it was accompanied.
