Chapter 16

¹And 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.

²And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the

sepulchre at the rising of the sun.

³And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door

of the sepulchre?

⁴And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very

great.

⁵And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side,

clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.

⁶And 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.

⁷But 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.

⁸And 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.

⁹Now 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.

¹⁰And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.

¹¹And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her,

believed not.

¹²After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and

went into the country.

¹³And they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them.

¹⁴Afterward 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.

¹⁵And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every

creature.

¹⁶He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall

be damned.

¹⁷And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out

devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

¹⁸They 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.

¹⁹So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven,

and sat on the right hand of God.

²⁰And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them,

and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
