Mark 16:9-20 - The Longer Ending Of Mark

⁹ Now having risen early morning on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons. ¹⁰ That woman, having gone, informed those who became with him, as they mourned and wept. ¹¹ And those men, when they heard that he is alive, and was seen by her, did not believe. ¹² And after these things he appeared in a different form to two of them as they walked going into the countryside. ¹³ And those men having departed, they reported to the others. Neither did they believe those men.

¹⁴ Afterward he became visible to them, to the eleven, who were relaxing. And he upbraided their unbelief and hard heart, because they did not believe those who saw him after he was raised. ¹⁵ And he said to them, Having gone into all the world, preach ye the good-news to the whole creation. ¹⁶ He who believes and is immersed will be saved, but he who does not believe will be damned. ¹⁷ And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will cast out demons. They will speak in new tongues. ¹⁸ They will take up serpents, and if they drink anything deadly, it will, no, not harm them. They will lay hands on the feeble, and they will fare well.

¹⁹ Therefore indeed, the Lord, after he spoke to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. ²⁰ And those men, having gone forth, they preached everywhere, the Lord working jointly, and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Truly.

⁹ Salute Urbanus our co-workman in Christ, and Stachys my beloved. ¹⁰ Salute Apelles, a man reliable in Christ. Salute the men from those of Aristobulus. ¹¹ Salute Herodion my kinsman. Salute the men from those of Narcissus who are in Lord. ¹² Salute Tryphaena and Tryphosa, the women who labor in Lord. Salute the beloved Persis who labored many things in Lord. ¹³ Salute Rufus the chosen in Lord, and his mother and mine. ¹⁴ Salute Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers with them. ¹⁵ Salute Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the sanctified with them. ¹⁶ Salute each other by a holy kiss. The congregations of Christ salute you.

¹⁷ Now I beseech you, brothers, watch out for those who make the divisions and the stumbling blocks, contrary to the doctrine that ye learned, and turn away from them. ¹⁸ For such kind serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly. And by their smooth words and elegant speech they deceive the hearts of the naive.

¹⁹ For your obedience reached to all men. Therefore I rejoice over you, but I want you to be indeed wise in the good and pure in the evil. ²⁰ And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is with you.
