And when they had entered they found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

6

He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spoke to you, being yet in Galilee,

7

saying, ‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.’ ”

And they remembered His words.

9

and, returning from the sepulchre, related all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.

9

Then they returned from the tomb and told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.

10

Now it was Mary of Magdala, and Johanna, and Mary the [mother] of James, and the others with them, who told these things to the apostles.

10

It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them, who told these things to the apostles.

11

And their words appeared in their eyes as an idle tale, and they disbelieved them.

11

And their words seemed to them like [c]idle tales, and they did not believe them.

12

But Peter, rising up, ran to the sepulchre, and stooping down he sees the linen clothes lying there alone, and went away home, wondering at what had happened.

And behold, two of them were going on the same day to a village distant sixty stadia from Jerusalem, called Emmaus;

13

The Road to Emmaus

Now behold, two of them were traveling that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was [e]seven miles from Jerusalem.

14

and they conversed with one another about all these things which had taken place.

14

And they talked together of all these things which had happened.

15

And it came to pass as they conversed and reasoned, that Jesus himself drawing nigh, went with them;

15

So it was, while they conversed and reasoned, that Jesus Himself drew near and went with them.

16

but their eyes were holden so as not to know him.

16

But their eyes were restrained, so that they did not know Him.

17

And he said to them, What discourses are these which pass between you as ye walk, and are downcast?

17

And He said to them, “What kind of conversation is this that you have with one another as you [f]walk and are sad?”

18

And one [of them], named Cleopas, answering said to him, Thou sojournest alone in Jerusalem, and dost not know what has taken place in it in these days?

18

Then the one whose name was Cleopas answered and said to Him, “Are You the only stranger in Jerusalem, and have You not known the things which happened there in these days?”

19

And he said to them, What things? And they said to him, The things concerning Jesus the Nazaraean, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people;

19

And He said to them, “What things?”
So they said to Him, “The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a Prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,

21

But we were hoping that it was He who was going to redeem Israel. Indeed, besides all this, today is the third day since these things happened.

22

And withal, certain women from amongst us astonished us, having been very early at the sepulchre,

22

Yes, and certain women of our company, who arrived at the tomb early, astonished us.

23

and, not having found his body, came, saying that they also had seen a vision of angels, who say that he is living.

23

When they did not find His body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said He was alive.

24

And some of those with us went to the sepulchre, and found it so, as the women also had said, but him they saw not.

24

And certain of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said; but Him they did not see.”

25

Jesus Explains the Prophecies

And *he* said to them, O senseless and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

25

Then He said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

26

Ought not the Christ to have suffered these things and to enter into his glory?

Then they drew near to the village where they were going, and He [h]indicated that He would have gone farther.

29

And they constrained him, saying, Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is declining. And he entered in to stay with them.

29

But they constrained Him, saying, “Abide with us, for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent.” And He went in to stay with them.

30

And it came to pass as he was at table with them, having taken the bread, he blessed, and having broken it, gave it to them.

30

Now it came to pass, as He sat at the table with them, that He took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.

31

And their eyes were opened, and they recognised him. And he disappeared from them.

31

Then their eyes were opened and they knew Him; and He vanished from their sight.

32

And they said to one another, Was not our heart burning in us as he spoke to us on the way, [and] as he opened the scriptures to us?

32

And they said to one another, “Did not our heart burn within us while He talked with us on the road, and while He opened the Scriptures to us?”

33

And rising up the same hour, they returned to Jerusalem. And they found the eleven, and those with them, gathered together,

33

So they rose up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together,

34

saying, The Lord is indeed risen and has appeared to Simon.

34

saying, “The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!”

35

And they related what [had happened] on the way, and how he was made known to them in the breaking of bread.

35

And they told about the things that had happened on the road, and how He was [i]known to them in the breaking of bread.

36

And as they were saying these things, he himself stood in their midst, and says to them, Peace [be] unto you.

36

Jesus Appears to His Disciples

Now as they said these things, Jesus Himself stood in the midst of them, and said to them, “Peace to you.”

37

But they, being confounded and being frightened, supposed they beheld a spirit.

37

But they were terrified and frightened, and supposed they had seen a spirit.

38

And he said to them, Why are ye troubled? and why are thoughts rising in your hearts?

38

And He said to them, “Why are you troubled? And why do doubts arise in your hearts?

39

behold my hands and my feet, that it is *I* myself. Handle me and see, for a spirit has not flesh and bones as ye see me having.

39

Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself. Handle Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have.”

40

And having said this he shewed them his hands and his feet.

40

[j]When He had said this, He showed them His hands and His feet.

41

But while they yet did not believe for joy, and were wondering, he said to them, Have ye anything here to eat?

41

But while they still did not believe for joy, and marveled, He said to them, “Have you any food here?”

42

And they gave him part of a broiled fish and of a honeycomb;

Then He said to them, “These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me.”

45

Then he opened their understanding to understand the scriptures,

45

And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures.

46

and said to them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved the Christ to suffer, and to rise from among the dead the third day;

46

Then He said to them, “Thus it is written, [l]and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day,

47

and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name to all the nations beginning at Jerusalem.
