1 but, on the first day of the week, at early dawn, unto the tomb, came they, bringing the spices which they had prepared.
But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they and some others came to the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared.
2 And they found the stone, rolled away from the tomb;
They found the stone rolled away from the tomb.
3 but, when they entered, they found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
They entered in, and didn’t find the Lord Jesus’ body.
4 And it came to pass, while they were perplexing themselves concerning this, that lo! two men, stood near them, in dazzling raiment.
While they were greatly perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling clothing.
5 And, they becoming afraid, and bending their faces unto the ground, they said unto them—Why seek ye the Living One with the dead?
Becoming terrified, they bowed their faces down to the earth. The men said to them, “Why do you seek the living amongst the dead?
6 He is not here, but hath arisen: Remember how he spake unto you while yet he was in Galilee:
He isn’t here, but is risen. Remember what he told you when he was still in Galilee,
7 Saying, as to the Son of Man, that he must needs be delivered up into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, —and, on the third day, arise.
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?”
8 And they remembered his sayings;
They remembered his words,
9 and, returning [from the tomb], reported all these things unto the eleven, and unto all the rest.
returned from the tomb, and told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.
10 Now they were the Magdalene Mary, and Joana, and Mary the mother of James; and, the other women with them, were telling, unto the apostles, these things.
Now they were Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Mary the mother of James. The other women with them told these things to the apostles.
11 And these sayings appeared before them, as if idle talk, and they were minded to disbelieve them.
These words seemed to them to be nonsense, and they didn’t believe them.
12 But, Peter, arising, ran unto the tomb, —and, bending near, beholdeth the linen bandages, alone; and departed, unto himself, marvelling at the thing that had happened.
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.
13 And lo! two from among them, on the selfsame day, were journeying unto a village, distant sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, the name of which, was Emmaus;
Behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was sixty stadia from Jerusalem.
14 and, they, were conversing one with another, about all these things which had occurred.
They talked with each other about all of these things which had happened.
15 And it came to pass, as they were conversing and reasoning together, that, Jesus himself, drawing near, was journeying with them;
While they talked and questioned together, Jesus himself came near, and went with them.
16 but, their eyes, were held, so as not to know him.
But their eyes were kept from recognising him.
17 And he said unto them—What are these things which ye are debating one with another, as ye walk along? And they came to a stand, sad in countenance.
He said to them, “What are you talking about as you walk, and are sad?”
18 But one, by name Cleopas, answering, said unto him—Art, thou, lodging, alone, in Jerusalem, and knowest not the things which have come to pass therein in these days?
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?”
19 And he said unto them—What things? And, they, said unto him—The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who became a prophet, mighty in work and word, before God and all the people:
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;
20 In what way also our High-priests and Rulers delivered him up unto a sentence of death, and crucified him.
and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him.
21 We, however, were hoping that, he, was the one destined to redeem Israel! But indeed, even with all these things, this brings on, the third, day, since these things happened: —
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.
22 Nay! certain women also, from amongst us, have made us beside ourselves, in that they went early unto the tomb;
Also, certain women of our company amazed us, having arrived early at the tomb;
23 and, not finding his body, came, saying—that, a vision of messengers, they had seen, who were affirming him to be alive.
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.
24 And certain of them who were with us departed unto the tomb, —and found so, according as, the women, had said; but, him, they saw not.
Some of us went to the tomb and found it just like the women had said, but they didn’t see him.”
25 And, he, said unto them—O thoughtless ones! and slow in heart to rest your faith upon all things which the prophets have spoken: —
He said to them, “Foolish people, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!
26 Was it not needful for the Christ, these very things, to suffer, and to enter into his glory?
Didn’t the Christ have to suffer these things and to enter into his glory?”
27 And, beginning from Moses, and from all the prophets, he thoroughly explained to them, in all the Scriptures, the things concerning himself.
Beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he explained to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.
28 And they drew near unto the village, whither they were journeying; and, he, made for journeying, further.
They came near to the village where they were going, and he acted like he would go further.
29 And they constrained him, saying—Abide with us; because it is, towards evening, and the day hath already declined. And he went in to abide with them.
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.
30 And it came to pass, when he reclined with them, taking the loaf, he blessed, and, breaking it, went on to give unto them.
When he had sat down at the table with them, he took the bread and gave thanks. Breaking it, he gave it to them.
31 And, their, eyes were opened, and they knew him; and, he, vanished from them.
Their eyes were opened and they recognised him; then he vanished out of their sight.
32 And they said one to another—Was not, our heart, burning, as he was speaking to us in the way, as he was opening to us the Scriptures?
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?”
33 And, arising in that very hour, they returned unto Jerusalem, —and found, gathered together, the eleven, and them who were with them,
They rose up that very hour, returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and those who were with them,
34 saying—In truth, the Lord hath arisen, and hath appeared unto Simon!
saying, “The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!”
35 And, they, went on to relate the things, [that had passed] on the journey, and how he was made known unto them in the breaking of the loaf.
They related the things that happened along the way, and how he was recognised by them in the breaking of the bread.
36 Now, as, these very things, they were telling, he himself, stood in their midst and saith unto them—Peace to you!
As they said these things, Jesus himself stood amongst them, and said to them, “Peace be to you.”
37 But, being agitated and becoming, afraid, they began to imagine, that, upon a spirit, they were looking.
But they were terrified and filled with fear, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.
38 And he said unto them—Why are ye troubled? and for what cause do reasonings arise in your hearts?
He said to them, “Why are you troubled? Why do doubts arise in your hearts?
39 See my hands, and my feet, —that it is, I, myself: Handle me, and see! because, a spirit, hath not, flesh and bones, as ye perceive, I, have.
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.”
40 And, this saying, he pointed out to them his hands and his feet.
When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet.
41 Now, while yet they believed not for the joy, and were marvelling, he said unto them—Have ye anything to eat, here?
While they still didn’t believe for joy, and wondered, he said to them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”
42 And they gave unto him a piece of boiled fish;
They gave him a piece of a broiled fish and some honeycomb.
43 and, taking it before them, he did eat.
He took them, and ate in front of them.
44 And he said unto them—These, are my words, which I spake unto you yet being with you: That all the things that are written in the law of Moses and the Prophets and Psalms, concerning me, must needs be fulfilled.
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.”
45 Then, opened he their mind, to understand the Scriptures;
Then he opened their minds, that they might understand the Scriptures.
46 and said unto them—Thus, it is written, That the Christ, should suffer, and arise from among the dead on the third day;
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,
47 And that repentance for remission of sins should be proclaimed upon his name unto all the nations, —beginning from Jerusalem.
and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name to all the nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
48 Ye, are witnesses of these things.
You are witnesses of these things.
49 And lo! I, am sending forth the promise of my Father upon you; but tarry, ye, in the city, until ye be clothed, from on high, with power.
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.”
50 And he led them forth as far as unto Bethany; and, uplifting his hands, he blessed them.
He led them out as far as Bethany, and he lifted up his hands and blessed them.
51 And it came to pass, while he was blessing them, he parted from them and was born up into heaven.
While he blessed them, he withdrew from them and was carried up into heaven.
52 And, they, having bowed down unto him returned unto Jerusalem, with great joy;
They worshipped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,
53 and were continually in the temple, blessing God.
and were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.
