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

Mark 16:9-20

9 Now as Jesus rose early the first of the sabbaths, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils. 10 And she went and told those that had been with him, as they mourned and wept. 11 And they, when they had heard that he was alive and had been seen of her, did not believe. 12 After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked and went into the country. 13 And they went and told it unto the others, yet they did not believe them.

14 Finally he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at the table and upbraided them for their unbelief and hardness of heart because they did not believe those who had seen him after he was risen. 15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believes and is baptized shall be saved, but he that believes not shall be condemned. 17 And these signs shall follow those that believe: In my name they shall cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 they shall take away serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands upon the sick, and they shall be healed.

19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven and sat at the right hand of God. 20 And they, going forth, preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word with the signs which followed them. Amen.

Romans 16:9-20

9 Salute Urbane, our helper in Christ, and Stachys, my beloved. 10 Salute Apelles, approved in Christ. Salute those who are of Aristobulus' household. 11 Salute Herodion, my kinsman. Greet those that are of the household of Narcissus who are in the Lord. 12 Salute Tryphena and Tryphosa, who labour in the Lord. Salute the beloved Persis, who laboured much in the Lord. 13 Salute Rufus, chosen in the Lord, and his mother and mine. 14 Salute Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brethren who are with them. 15 Salute Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints who are with them. 16 Salute one another with a holy kiss. All the congregations of Christ salute you.

17 And I beseech you, brethren, mark those who cause dissensions and offences outside of the doctrine which ye have learned, and avoid them. 18 For they that are such do not serve our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly and by smooth words and blessings deceive the hearts of the simple.

19 For your obedience is come abroad unto all places. I am glad therefore on your behalf, but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good and innocent concerning evil. 20 And let the God of peace bruise Satan under your feet quickly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
