And the Sabbath having past, Mary the Magdalene, and Mary of James, and Salome, bought spices, that having come, they may anoint Him,
2
and early in the morning of the first [day] of the weeks, they come to the tomb, at the rising of the sun,
3
and they said among themselves, “Who will roll away the stone out of the door of the tomb for us?”
4
And having looked, they see that the stone has been rolled away—for it was very great,
5
and having entered into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right hand, clothed in a long white robe, and they were amazed.
6
And he says to them, “Do not be amazed, you seek Jesus the Nazarene, the crucified [One]: He roseHe is not here; behold the place where they laid Him!
7
And go, say to His disciples and Peter that He goes before you to Galilee; there you will see Him, as He said to you.”
8
And having come forth quickly, they fled from the tomb, and trembling and amazement had seized them, and they said to no one anything, for they were afraid. [[

Afterward, as they are reclining, He appeared to the Eleven, and reproached their unbelief and stiffness of heart, because they did not believe those having seen Him being raised;

16
he who has believed and has been immersed will be saved; and he who has not believed will be condemned.
17
And signs will accompany those believing these things: they will cast out demons in My Name; they will speak with new tongues;
18
they will take up serpents; and if they may drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the ailing, and they will be well.”

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

Footnotes

(a)16:8 TR adds “quickly”
(b)16:8 One isolated manuscript omits verses 9-20 but adds this “short ending of Mark” to the end of verse 8: They told all that had been commanded them briefly to those around Peter. After that, Jesus himself sent them out, from east to west, with the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation.
(c)16:9 NU includes the text of verses 9-20, but mentions in a footnote that a few manuscripts omitted it. The translators of the World English Bible regard Mark 16:9 as reliable based on an overwhelming majority of textual evidence, including not only the authoritative Greek Majority Text New Testament, but also the TR and many of the manuscripts cited in the NU text.
(d)16:19 NU adds “Jesus”
