復活的清晨

16 安息日一過,茉大拉瑪麗亞雅各的母親[a]瑪麗亞莎羅美就買了香料,要去膏抹耶穌。 在一週的頭一天[b],一大清早,太陽剛出來,她們就來到墓穴那裡。 她們互相說:「誰能替我們滾開墓穴口的石頭呢?」 原來那塊石頭非常大。可是她們抬頭一看,見石頭已經被滾開了。 她們進了墓穴,看見一個年輕人[c]身穿白袍坐在右邊,就大吃一驚。

那年輕人對她們說:「不要驚慌!你們是在尋找被釘十字架的拿撒勒人耶穌,他已經復活[d]了,不在這裡。看,這就是他們安放他的地方。 你們去,告訴他的門徒們和彼得:『他要在你們之前到加利利去。在那裡,你們將見到他,正如他告訴過你們的。』」

她們渾身顫抖、驚慌失措,[e]從墓穴出來就逃跑了。她們因為感到懼怕,什麼也沒有對任何人說。

復活的主顯現

在一週頭一天[f]的清晨,耶穌復活以後,首先向茉大拉瑪麗亞顯現。耶穌曾經從她身上趕出了七個鬼魔。 10 她去告訴那些向來與耶穌在一起的人,他們正在悲傷、哀哭。 11 他們聽見耶穌活了,又被瑪麗亞看到了,卻是不相信。 12 這些事以後,門徒中有兩個人往鄉下去。在路上,耶穌以另一種形像向他們顯現。 13 他們去告訴其他的門徒,那些門徒也不相信他們。

大使命

14 後來那十一個使徒吃飯的時候,耶穌向他們顯現,並斥責他們的不信和心裡剛硬,因為他們不相信那些在他復活後看到他的人。 15 耶穌對他們說:「你們要到全世界去,向萬人[g]傳福音。 16 信而受洗[h]的人,將會得救;不信的人,將被定罪。 17 這些神蹟將伴隨著信的人:他們將奉我的名驅趕鬼魔;說各種新的語言[i] 18 [j]對付[k]蛇類;即使喝了致命的東西也絕不受害;按手在病人身上,病人就將痊癒。」

升天

19 這樣,主耶穌[l]對他們說完話以後,就被接到天上,坐在神的右邊。 20 門徒們就出去,到處傳道。主與他們一同工作,並且藉著伴隨的神蹟證實這話語。[m][n]

Empty tomb

16 When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they could go and anoint Jesus’ dead body. Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they came to the tomb. They were saying to each other, “Who’s going to roll the stone away from the entrance for us?” When they looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away. (And it was a very large stone!) Going into the tomb, they saw a young man in a white robe seated on the right side; and they were startled. But he said to them, “Don’t be alarmed! You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified.[a] He has been raised. He isn’t here. Look, here’s the place where they laid him. Go, tell his disciples, especially Peter, that he is going ahead of you into Galilee. You will see him there, just as he told you.” Overcome with terror and dread, they fled from the tomb. They said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid.[b]

Endings Added Later

[They promptly reported all of the young man’s instructions to those who were with Peter. Afterward, through the work of his disciples, Jesus sent out, from the east to the west, the sacred and undying message of eternal salvation. Amen. ]

[[After Jesus rose up early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons. 10 She went and reported to the ones who had been with him, who were mourning and weeping. 11 But even after they heard the news, they didn’t believe that Jesus was alive and that Mary had seen him.

12 After that he appeared in a different form to two of them who were walking along in the countryside. 13 When they returned, they reported it to the others, but they didn’t believe them. 14 Finally he appeared to the eleven while they were eating. Jesus criticized their unbelief and stubbornness because they didn’t believe those who saw him after he was raised up. 15 He said to them, “Go into the whole world and proclaim the good news to every creature. 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever doesn’t believe will be condemned. 17 These signs will be associated with those who believe: they will throw out demons in my name. They will speak in new languages. 18 They will pick up snakes with their hands. If they drink anything poisonous, it will not hurt them. They will place their hands on the sick, and they will get well.”

19 After the Lord Jesus spoke to them, he was lifted up into heaven and sat down on the right side of God. 20 But they went out and proclaimed the message everywhere. The Lord worked with them, confirming the word by the signs associated with them.]]

  1. Mark 16:6 Or the Crucified One
  2. Mark 16:8 In most critical editions of the Gk New Testament, the Gospel of Mark ends at 16:8.

16 And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him.

And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun.

And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre?

And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great.

And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.

And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.

But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.

And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for they were afraid.

Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.

10 And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.

11 And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.

12 After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country.

13 And they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them.

14 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.

15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
