[1]And when the sabbath had passed, Mary Magdalena, and Mary [the mother] of James, and Salome, bought aromatics, that they might come and anoint him.
[2]And in the morning of the first day of the week, they came to the sepulchre as the sun arose.
[3]And they said among them. selves: Who will roll back for us the stone from the door of the sepulchre?
[4]And they looked, and saw that the stone was rolled away; for it was very great.
[5]And entering the sepulchre, they saw a youth sitting on the right hand, and clothed in a white robe: and they were in perturbation.
[6]But he said to them: Be not affrighted. Ye are seeking Jesus the Nazarean, who was crucified. He is risen; he is not here. Behold the place where he was laid.
[7]But go, tell his disciples and Cephas: Lo, he precedeth you into Galilee; there will ye see him, as he said to you.
[8]And when they heard, they fled and left the sepulchre; for astonishment and trembling had seized them; and they said nothing to any one, for they were in fear.
[9]And in the morning of the first day of the week, he arose; and he appeared first to Mary Magdalena, from whom he had cast out seven demons.
[10]And she went and told them that had been with him, while they were mourning and weeping.
[11]And they, when they heard [the women] say that he was alive, and that he had appeared to them, did not believe them.
[12]After this he appeared, under another aspect, to two of them as they walked and went into the country.
[13]And these went and told the rest; but they would not believe them
[14]And at last, he appeared to the eleven: as they reclined at table; and he reproved the slenderness of their faith, and the hardness of their heart; because they believed not those who had seen him actually risen.
[15]And he said to them: Go ye into all the world, and proclaim my tidings in the whole creation.
[16]He that believeth, and is baptized, liveth; but he that believeth not, is condemned.
[17]And these signs shall attend them that believe: In my name, they will cast out demons; and in new tongues will they speak.
[18]And they will take up serpents; and if they should drink a deadly poison, it will not harm them; and they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will be healed.
[19]And Jesus, our Lord, after he had conversed with them, ascended to heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
[20]And they went forth, and preached everywhere: and our Lord aided them, and confirmed their discourses by the signs which they wrought.Completion of the Holy Gospels, the announcement of Mark; which he uttered and proclaimed in Latin at Rome.
