复活的清晨

16 安息日一过,茉大拉玛丽亚雅各的母亲[a]玛丽亚莎罗美就买了香料,要去膏抹耶稣。 在一周的头一天[b],一大清早,太阳刚出来,她们就来到墓穴那里。 她们互相说:“谁能替我们滚开墓穴口的石头呢?” 原来那块石头非常大。可是她们抬头一看,见石头已经被滚开了。 她们进了墓穴,看见一个年轻人[c]身穿白袍坐在右边,就大吃一惊。

那年轻人对她们说:“不要惊慌!你们是在寻找被钉十字架的拿撒勒人耶稣,他已经复活[d]了,不在这里。看,这就是他们安放他的地方。 你们去,告诉他的门徒们和彼得:‘他要在你们之前到加利利去。在那里,你们将见到他,正如他告诉过你们的。’”

她们浑身颤抖、惊慌失措,[e]从墓穴出来就逃跑了。她们因为感到惧怕,什么也没有对任何人说。

复活的主显现

在一周头一天[f]的清晨,耶稣复活以后,首先向茉大拉玛丽亚显现。耶稣曾经从她身上赶出了七个鬼魔。 10 她去告诉那些向来与耶稣在一起的人,他们正在悲伤、哀哭。 11 他们听见耶稣活了,又被玛丽亚看到了,却是不相信。 12 这些事以后,门徒中有两个人往乡下去。在路上,耶稣以另一种形像向他们显现。 13 他们去告诉其他的门徒,那些门徒也不相信他们。

大使命

14 后来那十一个使徒吃饭的时候,耶稣向他们显现,并斥责他们的不信和心里刚硬,因为他们不相信那些在他复活后看到他的人。 15 耶稣对他们说:“你们要到全世界去,向万人[g]传福音。 16 信而受洗[h]的人,将会得救;不信的人,将被定罪。 17 这些神迹将伴随着信的人:他们将奉我的名驱赶鬼魔;说各种新的语言[i] 18 [j]对付[k]蛇类;即使喝了致命的东西也绝不受害;按手在病人身上,病人就将痊愈。”

升天

19 这样,主耶稣[l]对他们说完话以后,就被接到天上,坐在神的右边。 20 门徒们就出去,到处传道。主与他们一同工作,并且藉着伴随的神迹证实这话语。[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.

Jesus Rises from Death

16 The day after the Sabbath day, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought some sweet-smelling spices to put on Jesus’ body. Very early on that day, the first day of the week, the women were on their way to the tomb. It was soon after sunrise. They said to each other, “There is a large stone covering the entrance of the tomb. Who will move the stone for us?”

Then the women looked and saw that the stone was already moved. The stone was very large, but it was moved away from the entrance. The women entered the tomb and saw a young man wearing a white robe. He was sitting on the right side, and the women were afraid.

But the man said, “Don’t be afraid. You are looking for Jesus from Nazareth, the one who was killed on a cross. He has risen from death. He is not here. Look, here is the place they laid him. Now go and tell his followers and Peter, ‘Jesus is going into Galilee. He will be there before you. You will see him there as he told you before.’”

The women were confused and shaking with fear. They left the tomb and ran away. They did not tell anyone about what happened, because they were afraid.[a]

Some Followers See Jesus

Jesus rose from death early on the first day of the week. He showed himself first to Mary Magdalene. One time in the past, he had forced seven demons to leave Mary. 10 After Mary saw Jesus, she went and told his followers. They were very sad and were crying. 11 But Mary told them that Jesus was alive. She said that she had seen him, but the followers did not believe her.

12 Later, Jesus showed himself to two of his followers while they were walking in the country. But Jesus did not look the same as before. 13 These followers went back to the others and told them what had happened. Again, the followers did not believe them.

Jesus Talks to the Apostles

14 Later Jesus showed himself to the 11 followers while they were eating. He criticized them because they had little faith. They were stubborn and refused to believe those who had seen him after he had risen from death.

15 Jesus said to the followers, “Go everywhere in the world. Tell the Good News to everyone. 16 Anyone who believes and is baptized will be saved. But he who does not believe will be judged guilty. 17 And those who believe will be able to do these things as proof: They will use my name to force demons out of people. They will speak in languages they never learned. 18 They will pick up snakes without being hurt. And they will drink poison without being hurt. They will touch the sick, and the sick will be healed.”

19 After the Lord Jesus said these things to the followers, he was carried up into heaven. There, Jesus sat at the right side of God. 20 The followers went everywhere in the world and told the Good News to people. And the Lord helped them. The Lord proved that the Good News they told was true by giving them power to work miracles.
