New International Version

[The earliest manuscripts and some other ancient witnesses do not have verses 9–20.]

⁹When Jesus rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene,^(A) out of whom he had driven seven demons. ¹⁰She went and told those who had been with him and who were mourning and weeping. ¹¹When they heard that Jesus was alive and that she had seen him, they did not believe it.^(B)

¹²Afterward Jesus appeared in a different form to two of them while they were walking in the country.^(C) ¹³These returned and reported it to the rest; but they did not believe them either.

¹⁴Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; he rebuked them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who had seen him after he had risen.^(D)

¹⁵He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.^(E) ¹⁶Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.^(F) ¹⁷And these signs^(G) will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons;^(H) they will speak in new tongues;^(I) ¹⁸they will pick up snakes^(J) with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on^(K) sick people, and they will get well.”
