Marcos 16

La resurrección

1 Cuando pasó el *sábado, María Magdalena, María la madre de *Jacobo, y Salomé compraron especias aromáticas para ir a ungir el cuerpo de Jesús. 2 Muy de mañana el primer día de la semana, apenas salido el sol, se dirigieron al sepulcro. 3 Iban diciéndose unas a otras: «¿Quién nos quitará la piedra de la entrada del sepulcro?» 4 Pues la piedra era muy grande.
Pero al fijarse bien, se dieron cuenta de que estaba corrida.
5 Al entrar en el sepulcro vieron a un joven vestido con un manto blanco, sentado a la derecha, y se asustaron.
6 —No se asusten —les dijo—. Ustedes buscan a Jesús el nazareno, el que fue crucificado. ¡Ha resucitado! No está aquí. Miren el lugar donde lo pusieron. 7 Pero vayan a decirles a los discípulos y a Pedro: “Él va delante de ustedes a Galilea. Allí lo verán, tal como les dijo.”
8 Temblorosas y desconcertadas, las mujeres salieron huyendo del sepulcro. No dijeron nada a nadie, porque tenían miedo.s

Apariciones y ascensión de Jesús

9 Cuando Jesús resucitó en la madrugada del primer día de la semana, se apareció primero a María Magdalena, de la que había expulsado siete demonios. 10 Ella fue y avisó a los que habían estado con él, que estaban lamentándose y llorando. 11 Pero ellos, al oír que Jesús estaba vivo y que ella lo había visto, no lo creyeron.
12 Después se apareció Jesús en otra forma a dos de ellos que iban de camino al campo. 13 Éstos volvieron y avisaron a los demás, pero no les creyeron a ellos tampoco.
14 Por último se apareció Jesús a los once mientras comían; los reprendió por su falta de fe y por su obstinación en no creerles a los que lo habían visto *resucitado.
15 Les dijo: «Vayan por todo el mundo y anuncien las buenas *nuevas a toda criatura.s 16 El que crea y sea bautizado será salvo, pero el que no crea será condenado. 17 Estas señales acompañarán a los que crean: en mi nombre expulsarán demonios; hablarán en nuevas lenguas; 18 tomarán en sus manos serpientes; y cuando beban algo venenoso, no les hará daño alguno; pondrán las manos sobre los enfermos, y éstos recobrarán la salud.»
19 Después de hablar con ellos, el Señor Jesús fue llevado al cielo y se sentó a la *derecha de Dios. 20 Los discípulos salieron y predicaron por todas partes, y el Señor los ayudaba en la obra y confirmaba su palabra con las señales que la acompañaban.

MARK 16

Jesus Is Alive

(Matthew 28.1-8; Luke 24.1-12; John 20.1-10)

1 After the Sabbath, Mary Magdalene, Salome, and Mary the mother of James bought some spices to put on Jesus' body. 2 Very early on Sunday morning, just as the sun was coming up, they went to the tomb. 3 On their way, they were asking one another, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance for us?”

4 But when they looked, they saw that the stone had already been rolled away. And it was a huge stone!

5 The women went into the tomb, and on the right side they saw a young man in a white robe sitting there. They were alarmed.
6 The man said, “Don't be alarmed! You are looking for Jesus from Nazareth, who was nailed to a cross. God has raised him to life, and he isn't here. You can see the place where they put his body.

7 t Now go and tell his disciples, and especially Peter, that he will go ahead of you to Galilee. You will see him there, just as he told you.”

8 When the women ran from the tomb, they were confused and shaking all over. They were too afraid to tell anyone what had happened.

ONE OLD ENDING TO MARK'S GOSPEL

Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene

(Matthew 28.9,10; John 20.11-18)


9 Very early on the first day of the week, after Jesus had risen to life, he appeared to Mary Magdalene. Earlier he had forced seven demons out of her. 10 She left and told his friends, who were crying and mourning.

11 Even though they heard that Jesus was alive and that Mary had seen him, they still would not believe it.

Jesus Appears to Two Disciples

(Luke 24.13-35)


12 Later, Jesus appeared in another form to two disciples, as they were on their way out of the city.

13 But when these disciples told what had happened, the others would not believe either.

What Jesus' Followers Must Do

(Matthew 28.16-20; Luke 24.36-49; John 20.19-23; Acts 1.6-8)


14 Afterwards, Jesus appeared to his eleven disciples as they were eating. He scolded them because they were too stubborn to believe the ones who had seen him after he had been raised to life.

15 t Then he told them:
Go and preach the good news to everyone in the world.
16 Anyone who believes me and is baptized will be saved. But anyone who refuses to believe me will be condemned. 17 Everyone who believes me will be able to do wonderful things. By using my name they will force out demons, and they will speak new languages.

18 They will handle snakes and will drink poison and not be hurt. They will also heal sick people by placing their hands on them.

Jesus Returns to Heaven

(Luke 24.50-53; Acts 1.9-11)


19  t After the Lord Jesus had said these things to the disciples, he was taken back up to heaven where he sat down at the right sidet of God.

20 Then the disciples left and preached everywhere. The Lord was with them, and the miracles they worked proved that their message was true.

ANOTHER OLD ENDING TO MARK'S GOSPEL


9-10 The women quickly told Peter and his friends what had happened. Later, Jesus sent the disciples to the east and to the west with his sacred and everlasting message of how people can be saved forever.
