São Marcos 16

1 Passado o sábado, Maria Madalena, Maria, mãe de Tiago, e Salomé compraram aromas para ungir Jesus.

2 E no primeiro dia da semana, foram muito cedo ao sepulcro, mal o sol havia despontado.

3 E diziam entre si: "Quem removerá a pedra do sepulcro para nós?".

4 Levantando os olhos, elas viram removida a pedra, que era muito grande.

5 Entrando no sepulcro, viram, sentado do lado direito, um jovem, vestido de roupas brancas, e assustaram-se.

6 Ele lhes falou: "Não tenhais medo. Buscais Jesus de Naza­ré, que foi crucificado. Ele ressuscitou, já não está aqui. Eis o lugar onde o depositaram.

7 Mas ide, dizei a seus discípulos e a Pedro que ele vos precede na Galileia. Lá o vereis como vos disse".

8 Elas saíram do sepulcro e fugiram trêmulas e amedrontadas. E a ninguém disseram coisa alguma por causa do medo.

9 Tendo Jesus ressuscitado de manhã, no primeiro dia da semana apareceu primeiramente a Maria de Magdala, de quem tinha expulsado sete demônios.

10 Foi ela noticiá-lo aos que estiveram com ele, os quais estavam aflitos e chorosos.

11 Quando souberam que Jesus vivia e que ela o tinha visto, não quiseram acreditar. (= Mt 28,16-20 = Lc 24,13-49 = Jo 20,19-23)

12 Mais tarde, ele apareceu sob outra forma a dois entre eles que iam para o campo.

13 Eles foram anunciá-lo aos demais. Mas estes tampouco acreditaram.

14 Por fim, apareceu aos Onze, quando estavam sentados à mesa, e censurou-lhes a incredulidade e dureza de coração, por não acreditarem nos que o tinham visto ressuscitado.

15 E disse-lhes: "Ide por todo o mundo e pregai o Evangelho a toda criatura.

16 Quem crer e for batizado será salvo, mas quem não crer será condenado.

17 Estes milagres acompanharão os que crerem: expulsarão os demônios em meu nome, falarão novas línguas,

18 manusearão serpentes e, se beberem algum veneno mortal, não lhes fará mal; imporão as mãos aos enfermos e eles ficarão curados".

19 Depois que o Senhor Jesus lhes falou, foi levado ao céu e está sentado à direita de Deus.

20 Os discípulos partiram e pregaram por toda parte. O Senhor cooperava com eles e confirmava a sua palavra com os milagres que a acompanha­vam.

1 And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him. 2 And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun. 3 And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre? 4 And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great. 5 And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted. 6 And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him. 7 But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you. 8 And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for they were afraid.

9 Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils. 10 And she went and told them 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, believed not.

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 residue: neither believed they them.

14 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which 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 believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. 20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
