Luke 24
1 And, on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb bringing the spices they had prepared.
but, on the first day of the week, at early dawn, unto the tomb, came they, bringing the spices which they had prepared.
2 But they found the stone rolled back from the tomb,
And they found the stone, rolled away from the tomb;
3 and on entering they found that the body of the Lord Jesus was not there.
but, when they entered, they found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
4 At this they were in great perplexity, when suddenly there stood by them two men whose raiment flashed like lightning.
And it came to pass, while they were perplexing themselves concerning this, that lo! two men, stood near them, in dazzling raiment.
5 The women were terrified; but, as they stood with their faces bowed to the ground, the men said to them, "Why do you search among the dead for Him who is living?
And, they becoming afraid, and bending their faces unto the ground, they said unto them—Why seek ye the Living One with the dead?
6 He is not here. He has come back to life. Remember how He spoke to you while He was still in Galilee,
He is not here, but hath arisen: Remember how he spake unto you while yet he was in Galilee:
7 when He told you that the Son of Man must be betrayed into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again."
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.
8 Then they remembered His words,
And they remembered his sayings;
9 and returning from the tomb they reported all this to the Eleven and to all the rest.
and, returning [from the tomb], reported all these things unto the eleven, and unto all the rest.
10 The women were Mary of Magdala, Joanna, and Mary the mother of James; and they and the rest of the women related all this to the Apostles.
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.
11 But the whole story seemed to them an idle tale; they could not believe the women.
And these sayings appeared before them, as if idle talk, and they were minded to disbelieve them.
12 Peter, however, rose and ran to the tomb. Stooping and looking in, he saw nothing but the linen cloths: so he went away to his own home, wondering at what had happened.
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.
13 On that same day two of the disciples were walking to Emmaus, a village seven or eight miles from Jerusalem,
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;
14 and were conversing about all these recent events;
and, they, were conversing one with another, about all these things which had occurred.
15 and, in the midst of their conversation and discussion, Jesus Himself came and joined them,
And it came to pass, as they were conversing and reasoning together, that, Jesus himself, drawing near, was journeying with them;
16 though they were prevented from recognizing Him.
but, their eyes, were held, so as not to know him.
17 "What is the subject," He asked them, "on which you are talking so earnestly, as you walk?" And they stood still, looking full of sorrow.
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.
18 Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered, "Are you a stranger lodging alone in Jerusalem, that you have known nothing of the things that have lately happened in the city?"
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?
19 "What things?" He asked. "The things about Jesus the Nazarene," they said, "who was a Prophet powerful in work and word before God and all the people;
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:
20 and how our High Priests and Rulers delivered Him up to be sentenced to death, and crucified Him.
In what way also our High-priests and Rulers delivered him up unto a sentence of death, and crucified him.
21 But we were hoping that it was He who was about to ransom Israel. Yes, and moreover it was the day before yesterday that these things happened.
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: —
22 And, besides, some of the women of our company have amazed us. They went to the tomb at daybreak,
Nay! certain women also, from amongst us, have made us beside ourselves, in that they went early unto the tomb;
23 and, finding that His body was not there, they came and declared to us that they had also seen a vision of angels who said that He was alive.
and, not finding his body, came, saying—that, a vision of messengers, they had seen, who were affirming him to be alive.
24 Thereupon some of our party went to the tomb and found things just as the women had said; but Jesus Himself they did not see."
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.
25 "O dull-witted men," He replied, "with minds so slow to believe all that the Prophets have spoken!
And, he, said unto them—O thoughtless ones! and slow in heart to rest your faith upon all things which the prophets have spoken: —
26 Was there not a necessity for the Christ thus to suffer, and then enter into His glory?"
Was it not needful for the Christ, these very things, to suffer, and to enter into his glory?
27 And, beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, He explained to them the passages in Scripture which refer to Himself.
And, beginning from Moses, and from all the prophets, he thoroughly explained to them, in all the Scriptures, the things concerning himself.
28 When they had come near the village to which they were going, He appeared to be going further.
And they drew near unto the village, whither they were journeying; and, he, made for journeying, further.
29 But they pressed Him to remain with them. "Because," said they, "it is getting towards evening, and the day is nearly over." So He went in to stay with them.
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.
30 But as soon as He had sat down with them, and had taken the bread and had blessed and broken it, and was handing it to them,
And it came to pass, when he reclined with them, taking the loaf, he blessed, and, breaking it, went on to give unto them.
31 their eyes were opened and they recognized Him. But He vanished from them.
And, their, eyes were opened, and they knew him; and, he, vanished from them.
32 "Were not our hearts," they said to one another, "burning within us while He talked to us on the way and explained the Scriptures to us?"
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?
33 So they rose and without an hour's delay returned to Jerusalem, and found the Eleven and the rest met together, who said to them,
And, arising in that very hour, they returned unto Jerusalem, —and found, gathered together, the eleven, and them who were with them,
34 "Yes, it is true: the Master has come back to life. He has been seen by Simon."
saying—In truth, the Lord hath arisen, and hath appeared unto Simon!
35 Then they related what had happened on the way, and how He had been recognized by them in the breaking of the bread.
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.
36 While they were thus talking, He Himself stood in their midst and said, "Peace be to you!"
Now, as, these very things, they were telling, he himself, stood in their midst and saith unto them—Peace to you!
37 Startled, and in the utmost alarm, they thought they were looking at a spirit;
But, being agitated and becoming, afraid, they began to imagine, that, upon a spirit, they were looking.
38 but He said to them, "Why such alarm? And why are there such questionings in your minds?
And he said unto them—Why are ye troubled? and for what cause do reasonings arise in your hearts?
39 See my hands and my feet--it is my very self. Feel me and see, for a spirit has not flesh and bones as you see I have."
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.
40 And then He showed them His hands and His feet.
And, this saying, he pointed out to them his hands and his feet.
41 But, while they still could not believe it for joy and were full of astonishment, He asked them, "Have you any food here?"
Now, while yet they believed not for the joy, and were marvelling, he said unto them—Have ye anything to eat, here?
42 And they gave Him a piece of roasted fish,
And they gave unto him a piece of boiled fish;
43 and He took it and ate it in their presence.
and, taking it before them, he did eat.
44 And He said to them, "This is what I told you while I was still with you--that everything must be fulfilled that is written in the Law of Moses and in the Prophets and the Psalms concerning me."
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.
45 Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures,
Then, opened he their mind, to understand the Scriptures;
46 and He said, "Thus it is written that the Christ would suffer and on the third day rise again from among the dead;
and said unto them—Thus, it is written, That the Christ, should suffer, and arise from among the dead on the third day;
47 and that proclamation would be made, in His name, of repentance and forgiveness of sins to all the nations, beginning in Jerusalem.
And that repentance for remission of sins should be proclaimed upon his name unto all the nations, —beginning from Jerusalem.
48 You are witnesses as to these things.
Ye, are witnesses of these things.
49 And remember that I am about to send out my Father's promised gift to rest upon you. But, as for you, wait patiently in the city until you are clothed with power from on high."
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.
50 And He brought them out to within view of Bethany, and then lifted up His hands and blessed them.
And he led them forth as far as unto Bethany; and, uplifting his hands, he blessed them.
51 And while He was blessing them, He parted from them and was carried up into Heaven.
And it came to pass, while he was blessing them, he parted from them and was born up into heaven.
52 They worshipped Him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy.
And, they, having bowed down unto him returned unto Jerusalem, with great joy;
53 Afterwards they were continually in attendance at the Temple, blessing God.
and were continually in the temple, blessing God.
