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]

Jesus Has Risen(A)

16 When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices(B) so that they might go to anoint Jesus’ body. Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb and they asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?”(C)

But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe(D) sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.

“Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene,(E) who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him,(F) just as he told you.’”(G)

Trembling and bewildered, the women went out and fled from the tomb. They said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid.[a]


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

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

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

14 Later 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.(K)

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

19 After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven(S) and he sat at the right hand of God.(T) 20 Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and confirmed his word by the signs(U) that accompanied it.

  1. Mark 16:8 Some manuscripts have the following ending between verses 8 and 9, and one manuscript has it after verse 8 (omitting verses 9-20): Then they quickly reported all these instructions to those around Peter. After this, Jesus himself also sent out through them from east to west the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation. Amen.

The Resurrection

16 (A)(B)When the Sabbath was past, (C)Mary Magdalene, (D)Mary the mother of James, and (E)Salome (F)bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him. And very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb. And they were saying to one another, “Who will roll away (G)the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?” And looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled back—(H)it was very large. And (I)entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, (J)dressed in (K)a white robe, and (L)they were alarmed. And he said to them, (M)“Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen; he is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter that (N)he is going before you to Galilee. There you will see him, (O)just as he told you.” And they went out and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had seized them, and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.

Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene

[[Now when he rose early on the first day of the week, (P)he appeared first to (Q)Mary Magdalene, (R)from whom he had cast out seven demons. 10 (S)She went and told those who had been with him, (T)as they (U)mourned and wept. 11 But when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, they (V)would not believe it.

Jesus Appears to Two Disciples

12 (W)After these things (X)he appeared in (Y)another form to two of them, as they were walking into the country. 13 (Z)And they went back and told the rest, but they did not believe them.

The Great Commission

14 Afterward (AA)he appeared (AB)to the eleven themselves as they were reclining at table, and he rebuked them for their (AC)unbelief and (AD)hardness of heart, because (AE)they had not believed those who saw him after he had risen. 15 And he said to them, (AF)“Go into all the world and (AG)proclaim the gospel to (AH)the whole creation. 16 (AI)Whoever believes and is (AJ)baptized (AK)will be saved, but (AL)whoever (AM)does not believe will be condemned. 17 And (AN)these signs will accompany those who believe: (AO)in my name they will cast out demons; (AP)they will speak in new tongues; 18 (AQ)they will pick up serpents with their hands; and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; (AR)they will lay their hands (AS)on the sick, and they will recover.”

19 So then the Lord Jesus, (AT)after he had spoken to them, (AU)was taken up into heaven and (AV)sat down at the right hand of God. 20 And they went out and preached everywhere, while (AW)the Lord worked with them and confirmed (AX)the message (AY)by accompanying signs.]]
