Mark 16
16
Resurrection Morning
1When#Mt 28:1; Lk 24:1–2 the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene,#Mk 15:40 Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they could go and anoint him. 2Very early in the morning, on the first day of the week,#Ac 20:7; 1Co 16:2 they went to the tomb#Jn 5:28 at sunrise. 3They were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone from the entrance to the tomb for us?” 4Looking up, they noticed that the stone — which was very large — had been rolled away.
5When#Mt 28:5–8; Lk 24:3–8; Jn 20:1–2 they entered the tomb,#Jn 5:28 they saw a young man#Lk 7:14 dressed#Lk 12:27 in a white#Rv 3:4 robe sitting on the right side; they were alarmed. 6“Don’t be alarmed,” he told them. “You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth,#Mk 14:67 who was crucified. He has risen!#1Co 15:4 He is not here. See the place where they put him. 7But go, tell his disciples and Peter,#Lk 6:14 ‘He is going ahead of you to Galilee;#Mt 17:22 you will see him there just as he told you.’”
8They went out and ran from the tomb,#Jn 5:28 because trembling and astonishment overwhelmed them. And they said nothing to anyone,#Mk 1:44; 4:40 since they were afraid.
[Some of the earliest mss conclude with 16:8.]#16:8 Other mss include vv. 9–20 as a longer ending. The following shorter ending is found in some mss between v. 8 and v. 9 and in one ms after v. 8 (each of which omits vv. 9–20): And all that had been commanded to them they quickly reported to those around Peter. After these things, Jesus himself sent out through them from east to west, the holy and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation. Amen.
The Longer Ending of Mark: Appearances of the Risen Lord
[ 9Early#Jn 20:11–18 on the first day of the week,#Lk 24:1; Ac 20:7; 1Co 16:2 after he had risen,#Lk 18:33; Ac 2:24 he appeared first to Mary Magdalene,#Mk 15:40 out of whom he had driven seven demons.#Mk 3:15; Lk 8:2 10She went and reported to those who had been with him, as they were mourning and weeping. 11Yet, when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, they did not believe it.#Lk 24:5,11,23
12After this, he appeared#Jn 21:1; 2Co 4:11 in a different form to two of them walking on their way into the country.#Lk 24:13–35 13And they went and reported it to the rest, who did not believe them either.
The Great Commission
14Later he appeared to the Eleven#Lk 24:9 themselves as they were reclining at the table. He rebuked their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who saw him after he had risen.#Lk 24:38,41 15Then#Mt 28:16–20 he said to them, “Go into all the world#Mt 13:38; 1Jn 2:2 and preach the gospel to all creation.#Rm 8:22 16Whoever believes#Mk 11:24; Jn 3:16; Ac 10:43; Rm 10:9; 1Pt 1:8–10 and is baptized will be saved,#Ac 2:38; 22:16 but whoever does not believe will be condemned.#Mt 12:41; Jn 3:18,36; 5:11; 20:23 17And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues;#16:17 = languages 18they will pick up snakes; #16:18 Other mss add with their hands#Lk 10:19; Ac 28:3–6 if they should drink anything deadly, it will not harm#Ac 28:5 them; they will lay hands on#Ac 9:12,17; 1Tm 5:22 the sick, and they will get well.”
The Ascension
19So the Lord Jesus, after speaking to them,#Lk 24:3 was taken up into heaven#Lk 24:51; Ac 1:2,11,22; 1Tm 3:16 and sat down at the right hand#Lk 22:69; Heb 10:12 of God. 20And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the word by the accompanying signs.]

Mark 16
16
1Once the Sabbath had ended, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought aromatic ointments so that they could go and anoint Jesus' body. 2Very early on the first day of the week,#16:2. That is, Sunday. just at sunrise, they went to the tomb. 3They were asking each other, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?” 4But when they arrived and looked, they saw that the very large, heavy stone had already been rolled away.
5When they went into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right, wearing a long white robe. They became very frightened.
6“Don't be frightened,” he told them. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, the one who was crucified. He is risen from the dead. He is not here. 7Look, this is the place where they laid him to rest. Now go, and tell his disciples and Peter that he's going ahead of you to Galilee. You will see him there just as he told you.”
8They left and ran from the tomb, shaking and confused. They said nothing to anyone because they were too scared.#16:8. Many of the early manuscripts of Mark end here. Others continue as shown.
9When Jesus rose from the dead on the first day of the week, he appeared first of all to Mary Magdalene, from whom he'd driven out seven demons. 10She went and told those who had been with him as they mourned and cried. 11When they heard that Jesus was alive and that she had seen him, they didn't believe it. 12Later Jesus appeared in a different form to two other disciples who'd left to go to the countryside. 13They returned and told the others, but they didn't believe them either.
14After this he appeared to the eleven disciples as they were eating. He rebuked them for their lack of trust and their stubbornness, because they had not believed those who'd seen him after he had risen.
15Then he told them, “Go to the whole world, and announce the good news to everyone.#16:15. Literally, “all creation.” 16Anyone who trusts in me and is baptized will be saved, but anyone who chooses not to trust will be condemned. 17The following signs will accompany those who trust in me: in my name they will drive out demons; they will speak new languages; 18they will be able to handle snakes; if they drink something poisonous they won't be harmed; they will place their hands on the sick and they will be healed.”
19Then, the Lord Jesus, when he had finished speaking to them, was taken up into heaven where he sat down at the right hand of God. 20The disciples went out and spread the good news everywhere, and the Lord worked with them, confirming the message through miraculous signs that accompanied it.
