Mark 16:8-20

They went out and ran from the tomb,  because trembling and astonishment overwhelmed them. And they said nothing to anyone,  since they were afraid. ¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥ [Some of the earliest mss conclude with 16:8.]  [Early  on the first day of the week,  after he had risen,  he appeared first to Mary Magdalene,  out of whom he had driven seven demons.  She went and reported to those who had been with him, as they were mourning and weeping. Yet, when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, they did not believe it.  After this, he appeared  in a different form to two of them walking on their way into the country.  And they went and reported it to the rest, who did not believe them either. Later he appeared to the Eleven  themselves as they were reclining at the table. He rebuked their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who saw him after he had risen.  Then  he said to them, “Go into all the world   and preach the gospel to all creation.   Whoever believes   and is baptized will be saved,   but whoever does not believe will be condemned.   And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues;   they will pick up snakes;   , if they should drink anything deadly, it will not harm   them; they will lay hands on   the sick, and they will get well.” So the Lord Jesus, after speaking to them,  was taken up into heaven  and sat down at the right hand  of God. And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the word by the accompanying signs.]
