Marcos 16

La resurrección

1 Cuando pasó el día de reposo, María Magdalena, María la madre de Jacobo, y Salomé, compraron especias aromáticas para ir a ungir el cuerpo de Jesús.2 El primer día de la semana muy temprano, en cuanto salió el sol, fueron al sepulcro.3 Y unas a otras se decían: «¿Quién nos quitará la piedra para entrar al sepulcro?»4 Pero, al llegar, vieron que la piedra ya había sido removida, a pesar de que era muy grande.5 Cuando entraron en el sepulcro, vieron que en el lado derecho estaba sentado un joven, vestido con una túnica blanca. Ellas se asustaron,6 pero el joven les dijo: «No se asusten. Ustedes buscan a Jesús el nazareno, el que fue crucificado. No está aquí. Ha resucitado. Miren el lugar donde lo pusieron.7 Pero vayan ahora y digan a sus discípulos, y a Pedro, “Él va delante de ustedes a Galilea.”t Allí lo verán, tal y como él les dijo.»

Jesús se aparece a María Magdalena

8 Ellas se espantaron, y temblando de miedo salieron corriendo del sepulcro. Y era tanto el miedo que tenían, que no le dijeron nada a nadie.
[
9 El primer día de la semana por la mañana, después de que Jesús resucitó, se le apareció primero a María Magdalena, de quien había echado siete demonios.10 Ella fue y se lo dijo a los que habían estado con él, los cuales estaban tristes y llorando.11 Al oír ellos que Jesús vivía y que ella lo había visto, no lo creyeron.

Jesús se aparece a dos de sus discípulos

12 Pero después Jesús se apareció, en otra forma, a dos de ellos que iban de camino al campo.13 Ellos fueron y se lo contaron a los otros; y ni aun a ellos les creyeron.

Jesús comisiona a los apóstoles

14 Finalmente se apareció a los once mismos, mientras ellos estaban sentados a la mesa, y les reprochó su incredulidad y obstinación, porque no habían creído a los que lo habían visto resucitado.15 Y les dijo: «Vayan por todo el mundo y prediquen el evangelio a toda criatura.t16 El que crea y sea bautizado, se salvará; pero el que no crea, será condenado.17 Y estas señales acompañarán a los que crean: En mi nombre expulsarán demonios, hablarán nuevas lenguas,18 tomarán en sus manos serpientes, y si beben algo venenoso, no les hará daño. Además, pondrán sus manos sobre los enfermos, y éstos sanarán.»

La ascensión

19 Después de que el Señor Jesús habló con ellos, fue recibido en el alto cielot y se sentó a la derecha de Dios.20 Ellos salieron entonces y predicaron por todas partes, y el Señor los ayudaba confirmando la palabra con las señales que la acompañaban. Amén.]t

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.
