The Shorter Ending of Mark
〚So they promptly reported all the things they had been commanded to those around Peter. And after these things, Jesus himself also sent out through them from the east even as far as the west the holy and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation. Amen.〛
The Longer Ending of Mark
〚9Now early on the first day of the week, after he#*Here “after” is supplied as a component of the participle (“rose”) which is understood as temporal rose, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had expelled seven demons. 10She went out and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“went out”) has been translated as a finite verb announced it#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation to those who were with him while they#*Here “while” is supplied as a component of the participle (“were”) which is understood as temporal were mourning and weeping. 11And those, when they#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“heard”) which is understood as temporal heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, refused to believe it.#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation 12And after these things, he appeared in a different form to two of them as they#*Here “as” is supplied as a component of the participle (“were walking”) which is understood as temporal were walking, while they#*Here “while” is supplied as a component of the participle (“were going out”) which is understood as temporal were going out into the countryside. 13And these went and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“went”) has been translated as a finite verb reported it#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation to the others, and they did not believe them. 14And later, while#*Here “while” is supplied as a component of the participle (“were reclining at table”) which is understood as temporal they were reclining at table, he appeared to the eleven.

Mark 16

The Resurrection
1-3When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so they could embalm him. Very early on Sunday morning, as the sun rose, they went to the tomb. They worried out loud to each other, “Who will roll back the stone from the tomb for us?”
4-5Then they looked up, saw that it had been rolled back—it was a huge stone—and walked right in. They saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed all in white. They were completely taken aback, astonished.
6-7He said, “Don’t be afraid. I know you’re looking for Jesus the Nazarene, the One they nailed on the cross. He’s been raised up; he’s here no longer. You can see for yourselves that the place is empty. Now—on your way. Tell his disciples and Peter that he is going on ahead of you to Galilee. You’ll see him there, exactly as he said.”
8They got out as fast as they could, beside themselves, their heads swimming. Stunned, they said nothing to anyone.
9-11[After rising from the dead, Jesus appeared early on Sunday morning to Mary Magdalene, whom he had delivered from seven demons. She went to his former companions, now weeping and carrying on, and told them. When they heard her report that she had seen him alive and well, they didn’t believe her.
12-13Later he appeared, but in a different form, to two of them out walking in the countryside. They went back and told the rest, but they weren’t believed either.
14-16Still later, as the Eleven were eating supper, he appeared and took them to task most severely for their stubborn unbelief, refusing to believe those who had seen him raised up. Then he said, “Go into the world. Go everywhere and announce the Message of God’s good news to one and all. Whoever believes and is baptized is saved; whoever refuses to believe is damned.
17-18“These are some of the signs that will accompany believers: They will throw out demons in my name, they will speak in new tongues, they will take snakes in their hands, they will drink poison and not be hurt, they will lay hands on the sick and make them well.”
19-20Then the Master Jesus, after briefing them, was taken up to heaven, and he sat down beside God in the place of honor. And the disciples went everywhere preaching, the Master working right with them, validating the Message with indisputable evidence.]
Note: Mark 16:9-20 [the portion in brackets] is not found in the earliest handwritten copies.
