Mark 16

World English Bible (WEB)

1 Ref When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices, that they might come and anoint him.

2 Ref Very early on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.

3 Ref They were saying among themselves, "Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?"

4 Ref for it was very big. Looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back.

5 Ref Entering into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were amazed.

6 Ref He said to them, "Don't be amazed. You seek Jesus, the Nazarene, who has been crucified. He has risen. He is not here. Behold, the place where they laid him!

7 Ref But go, tell his disciples and Peter, 'He goes before you into Galilee. There you will see him, as he said to you.'"

8 Ref They went out,{TR adds "quickly"} and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had come on them. They said nothing to anyone; for they were afraid.

9 Ref Now when he had risen early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons.

10 Ref She went and told those who had been with him, as they mourned and wept.

11 Ref When they heard that he was alive, and had been seen by her, they disbelieved.

12 Ref After these things he was revealed in another form to two of them, as they walked, on their way into the country.

13 Ref They went away and told it to the rest. They didn't believe them, either.

14 Ref Afterward he was revealed to the eleven themselves as they sat at the table, and he rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they didn't believe those who had seen him after he had risen.

15 Ref He said to them, "Go into all the world, and preach the Gospel to the whole creation.

16 Ref He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who disbelieves will be condemned.

17 Ref These signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new languages;

18 Ref they will take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it will in no way hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover."

19 Ref So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.

20 Ref They went out, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen.
