And on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came to the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared; (and some others with them: ) and found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre:
2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb.
so they went in,
3 They entered in, and didn’t find the Lord Jesus’ body.
but found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
4 While they were greatly perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling clothing.
And while they were in perplexity about it, behold, two men stood by them in shining robes.
5 Becoming terrified, they bowed their faces down to the earth. The men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead?
And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the ground, the men said unto them, Why do ye seek the living among the dead?
6 He isn’t here, but is risen. Remember what he told you when he was still in Galilee,
He is not here, He is risen: remember how He spake to you, when He was yet in Galilee,
7 saying that the Son of Man must be delivered up into the hands of sinful men and be crucified, and the third day rise again?”
saying, the Son of man must be delivered into the hands of wicked men, and be crucified; and the third day rise again.
8 They remembered his words,
And they remembered his words,
9 returned from the tomb, and told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.
and returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things to the eleven apostles, and to all the rest.
10 Now they were Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Mary the mother of James. The other women with them told these things to the apostles.
Now it was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them, that told these things to the apostles:
11 These words seemed to them to be nonsense, and they didn’t believe them.
and their words appeared to them as an idle tale, and they did not believe them.
12 But Peter got up and ran to the tomb. Stooping and looking in, he saw the strips of linen lying by themselves, and he departed to his home, wondering what had happened.
But Peter arose and ran to the sepulchre; and stooping down he saw the linen cloths lying by themselves: and he went away, wondering in himself at what had happened.
13 Behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was sixty stadia from Jerusalem.
And behold two of them were going that day to a village about threescore furlongs from Jerusalem, called Emmaus.
14 They talked with each other about all of these things which had happened.
And they were conversing together about all these things which had happened.
15 While they talked and questioned together, Jesus himself came near, and went with them.
And while they were discoursing and reasoning together, Jesus himself drew near and went along with them.
16 But their eyes were kept from recognizing him.
But their eyes were so restrained that they did not know Him.
17 He said to them, “What are you talking about as you walk, and are sad?”
And He said unto them, What subjects are these, which ye are discoursing of to one another as ye walk, and why are ye sorrowful?
18 One of them, named Cleopas, answered him, “Are you the only stranger in Jerusalem who doesn’t know the things which have happened there in these days?”
And one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answered and said to Him, Art thou only a sojourner at Jerusalem, and hast not heard of the things which have been done there within these few days?
19 He said to them, “What things?” They said to him, “The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people;
And He said unto them, What things? And they replied, Those concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet powerful both in work and word before God and all the people:
20 and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him.
how the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him to be condemned to death, and crucified Him.
21 But we were hoping that it was he who would redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things happened.
But we hoped that it was He that would have delivered Israel: and besides all this, to-day is the third day since these things were done.
22 Also, certain women of our company amazed us, having arrived early at the tomb;
And indeed some women of our company much surprised us: who having been early at the sepulchre,
23 and when they didn’t find his body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.
and not finding his body there, came and said likewise that they had seen a vision of angels, who said He was alive.
24 Some of us went to the tomb and found it just like the women had said, but they didn’t see him.”
And some of those that were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it so as the women had said: but Him they did not see.
25 He said to them, “Foolish people, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!
And He said unto them, O people void of understanding and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken.
26 Didn’t the Christ have to suffer these things and to enter into his glory?”
Was not the Messiah to suffer these things, and so to enter into his glory?
27 Beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he explained to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.
And beginning from Moses, and all the prophets, He explained to them in all the scriptures the things that were spoken concerning Himself.
28 They came near to the village where they were going, and he acted like he would go further.
And they drew nigh to the village whither they were going: and He made as if He was going farther.
29 They urged him, saying, “Stay with us, for it is almost evening, and the day is almost over.” He went in to stay with them.
And they pressed Him, saying, Stay with us, for it is towards evening, and the day is far spent. And He went in to tarry with them.
30 When he had sat down at the table with them, he took the bread and gave thanks. Breaking it, he gave it to them.
And as He sat at table with them, He took bread and blessed it, and then brake it and gave to them.
31 Their eyes were opened and they recognized him; then he vanished out of their sight.
And their eyes were opened, and they knew Him.
32 They said to one another, “Weren’t our hearts burning within us while he spoke to us along the way, and while he opened the Scriptures to us?”
And He disappeared from them. And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, as He was talking with us by the way, and while He was opening to us the scriptures?
33 They rose up that very hour, returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and those who were with them,
And they rose up immediately and returned to Jerusalem; and sound the eleven and others with them assembled together, saying,
34 saying, “The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!”
The Lord is risen indeed, and hath been seen by Simon.
35 They related the things that happened along the way, and how he was recognized by them in the breaking of the bread.
Then these also related what had happened by the way, and how He became known to them in breaking of bread.
36 As they said these things, Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace be to you.”
And as they were thus speaking, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be to you.
37 But they were terrified and filled with fear, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.
But they being terrified and frighted, thought they saw a spirit.
38 He said to them, “Why are you troubled? Why do doubts arise in your hearts?
And He said to them, Why are ye troubled? and why do such thoughts rise in your hearts?
39 See my hands and my feet, that it is truly me. Touch me and see, for a spirit doesn’t have flesh and bones, as you see that I have.”
Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.
40 When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet.
And when He said this, He shewed them his hands and feet.
41 While they still didn’t believe for joy, and wondered, he said to them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”
But they not yet believing for joy, and being amazed, He said to them, Have ye here any thing to eat?
42 They gave him a piece of a broiled fish and some honeycomb.
And they gave Him part of a broiled fish and some honey-comb:
43 He took them, and ate in front of them.
and He took, and did eat before them.
44 He said to them, “This is what I told you while I was still with you, that all things which are written in the law of Moses, the prophets, and the psalms concerning me must be fulfilled.”
And He said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all the things must be fulfilled, which are written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and Psalms, concerning me.
45 Then he opened their minds, that they might understand the Scriptures.
Then He opened their mind, to understand the scriptures:
46 He said to them, “Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day,
and said unto them, thus it is written, and thus it was necessary that the Christ should suffer, and rise again from the dead on the third day;
47 and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name to all the nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
and that in his name should be preached repentance and remission of sins to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
48 You are witnesses of these things.
And ye are witnesses of these things: and I will send upon you the promise of my Father;
49 Behold, I send out the promise of my Father on you. But wait in the city of Jerusalem until you are clothed with power from on high.”
but do ye continue in the city of Jerusalem, till ye are endued with power from on high.
50 He led them out as far as Bethany, and he lifted up his hands and blessed them.
And He led them out as far as to Bethany: and lifted up his hands and blessed them.
51 While he blessed them, he withdrew from them and was carried up into heaven.
And while He was blessing them, He was parted from them, and was carried up into heaven.
52 They worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,
And they worshipped Him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy.
53 and were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.
And they were constantly in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.
