The Shorter Ending of Mark
9 Now early on the first [day] of the week, [after he] rose, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had expelled seven demons.
10
She went out [and] announced [it] to those who were with him [while they] were mourning and weeping.
11
And those, [when they] heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, refused to believe [it].
12
And after these [things], he appeared in a different form to two of them [as they] were walking, [while they] were going out into the countryside.
13
And these went [and] reported [it] to the others, and they did not believe them.
14
And later, [while] they were reclining at table, he appeared to the eleven. And he reprimanded their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen him [after he] had been raised.
15
And he said to them, "Go into all the world [and] preach the gospel to all creation.
16
The one who believes and is baptized will be saved, but the one who refuses to believe will be condemned.
17
And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will expel demons, they will speak in new tongues,
18
they will pick up snakes. And if they drink any deadly [poison] it will never hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick and {they will get} well."
19
Then the Lord Jesus, after [he] had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God.
20
And they went out [and] proclaimed everywhere, [while] the Lord was working together with [them] and confirming the message through the accompanying signs.]]
