Gospel Of Mark Lent Readings Day 39: Mark 16:9-14

Now when he had risen early on the first day of the week,

He appeared first to Mary Magdalene,

From whom he had cast out seven demons.

She went and told those who had been with him,

As they mourned and wept.

When they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her,

They disbelieved.

After these things he was revealed in another form to two of them,

As they walked on their way into the country.

They went away and told it to the rest.

They didn't believe them either.

Afterward he was revealed to the eleven themselves as they sat at the table,

And he rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart,

Because they didn't believe those who had seen him after he had risen.
