Résurrection et ascension de Jésus-Christ
V. 1-8: cf. (Mt 28:1-8. Lu 24:1-8. Jn 20:1, 2.) (Ps 16:8-10. Ac 2:23-32). 1 Co 15:1-28. Ac 26:8.1 Lorsque le sabbat fut passé, Marie de Magdala, Marie, mère de Jacques, et Salomé, achetèrent des aromates, afin d’aller embaumer Jésus. 2 Le premier jour de la semaine, elles se rendirent au sépulcre, de grand matin, comme le soleil venait de se lever. 3 Elles disaient entre elles: Qui nous roulera la pierre loin de l’entrée du sépulcre? 4 Et, levant les yeux, elles aperçurent que la pierre, qui était très grande, avait été roulée. 5 Elles entrèrent dans le sépulcre, virent un jeune homme assis à droite vêtu d’une robe blanche, et elles furent épouvantées. 6 Il leur dit: Ne vous épouvantez pas; vous cherchez Jésus de Nazareth, qui a été crucifié; il est ressuscité, il n’est point ici; voici le lieu où on l’avait mis. 7 Mais allez dire à ses disciples et à Pierre qu’il vous précède en Galilée: c’est là que vous le verrez, comme il vous l’a dit. 8 Elles sortirent du sépulcre et s’enfuirent. La peur et le trouble les avaient saisies; et elles ne dirent rien à personne, à cause de leur effroi.
V. 9-14: cf. (Mt 28:8-10. Lu 24:9-45. Jn 20:11-23).9 Jésus, étant ressuscité le matin du premier jour de la semaine, apparut d’abord à Marie de Magdala, de laquelle il avait chassé sept démons. 10 Elle alla en porter la nouvelle à ceux qui avaient été avec lui, et qui s’affligeaient et pleuraient. 11 Quand ils entendirent qu’il vivait, et qu’elle l’avait vu, ils ne le crurent point. 12 Après cela, il apparut, sous une autre forme, à deux d’entre eux qui étaient en chemin pour aller à la campagne. 13 Ils revinrent l’annoncer aux autres, qui ne les crurent pas non plus. 14 Enfin, il apparut aux onze, pendant qu’ils étaient à table; et il leur reprocha leur incrédulité et la dureté de leur cœur, parce qu’ils n’avaient pas cru ceux qui l’avaient vu ressuscité.
V. 15-20: cf. (Mt 28:16-20. Lu 24:46-49, Lu 50-53. Ac 1:1-12.) Jn 21:1-24. 1 Co 15:6, 1 7.15 Puis il leur dit: Allez par tout le monde, et prêchez la bonne nouvelle à toute la création.
16 Celui qui croira et qui sera baptisé sera sauvé, mais celui qui ne croira pas sera condamné. 17 Voici les miracles qui accompagneront ceux qui auront cru: en mon nom, ils chasseront les démons; ils parleront de nouvelles langues; 18 ils saisiront des serpents; s’ils boivent quelque breuvage mortel, il ne leur fera point de mal; ils imposeront les mains aux malades, et les malades, seront guéris. 19 Le Seigneur, après leur avoir parlé, fut enlevé au ciel, et il s’assit à la droite de Dieu. 20 Et ils s’en allèrent prêcher partout. Le Seigneur travaillait avec eux, et confirmait la parole par les miracles qui l’accompagnaient.
Jesus Is Alive
(Matthew 28.1-8Luke 24.1-12John 20.1-10)1 After the Sabbath, Mary Magdalene, Salome, and Mary the mother of James bought some spices to put on Jesus' body. 2 Very early on Sunday morning, just as the sun was coming up, they went to the tomb. 3 On their way, they were asking one another, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance for us?” 4 But when they looked, they saw that the stone had already been rolled away. And it was a huge stone!
5 The women went into the tomb, and on the right side they saw a young man in a white robe sitting there. They were alarmed.
6 The man said, “Don't be alarmed! You are looking for Jesus from Nazareth, who was nailed to a cross. God has raised him to life, and he isn't here. You can see the place where they put his body. 7 Now go and tell his disciples, and especially Peter, that he will go ahead of you to Galilee. You will see him there, just as he told you.”
8 When the women ran from the tomb, they were confused and shaking all over. They were too afraid to tell anyone what had happened.
ONE OLD ENDING TO MARK'S GOSPEL
Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene
(Matthew 28.9Matthew 10John 20.11-18)9 Very early on the first day of the week, after Jesus had risen to life, he appeared to Mary Magdalene. Earlier he had forced seven demons out of her. 10 She left and told his friends, who were crying and mourning. 11 Even though they heard that Jesus was alive and that Mary had seen him, they still would not believe it.
Jesus Appears to Two Disciples
(Luke 24.13-35)12 Later, Jesus appeared in another form to two disciples, as they were on their way out of the city. 13 But when these disciples told what had happened, the others would not believe either.
What Jesus' Followers Must Do
(Matthew 28.16-20Luke 24.36-49John 20.19-23Acts 1.6-8)14 Afterwards, Jesus appeared to his eleven disciples as they were eating. He scolded them because they were too stubborn to believe the ones who had seen him after he had been raised to life. 15 Then he told them:
Go and preach the good news to everyone in the world. 16 Anyone who believes me and is baptized will be saved. But anyone who refuses to believe me will be condemned. 17 Everyone who believes me will be able to do wonderful things. By using my name they will force out demons, and they will speak new languages. 18 They will handle snakes and will drink poison and not be hurt. They will also heal sick people by placing their hands on them.
Jesus Returns to Heaven
(Luke 24.50-53Acts 1.9-11)19 After the Lord Jesus had said these things to the disciples, he was taken back up to heaven where he sat down at the right side of God. 20 Then the disciples left and preached everywhere. The Lord was with them, and the miracles they worked proved that their message was true.
ANOTHER OLD ENDING TO MARK'S GOSPEL
21-22 The women quickly told Peter and his friends what had happened. Later, Jesus sent the disciples to the east and to the west with his sacred and everlasting message of how people can be saved forever.
