Luke 24 NAS/NIV - But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.

1 But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.

1 On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb.

2 And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb,

2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb,

3 but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

4 While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men suddenly stood near them in dazzling clothing ;

4 While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them.

5 and as the women were terrified and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, "Why do you seek the living One among the dead ?

5 In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, "Why do you look for the living among the dead?

6 "He is not here, but He has risen. Remember how He spoke to you while He was still in Galilee,

6 He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee:

7 saying that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again."

7 'The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.' "

8 And they remembered His words,

8 Then they remembered his words.

9 and returned from the tomb and reported all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.

9 When they came back from the tomb, they told all these things to the Eleven and to all the others.

10 Now they were Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James ; also the other women with them were telling these things to the apostles.

10 It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the others with them who told this to the apostles.

11 But these words appeared to them as nonsense, and they would not believe them.

11 But they did not believe the women, because their words seemed to them like nonsense.

12 But Peter got up and ran to the tomb ; stooping and looking in, he saw the linen wrappings only ; and he went away to his home, marveling at what had happened.

12 Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb. Bending over, he saw the strips of linen lying by themselves, and he went away, wondering to himself what had happened.

13 And behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was about seven miles from Jerusalem.

13 Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.

14 And they were talking with each other about all these things which had taken place.

14 They were talking with each other about everything that had happened.

15 While they were talking and discussing, Jesus Himself approached and began traveling with them.

15 As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them;

16 But their eyes were prevented from recognizing Him.

16 but they were kept from recognizing him.

17 And He said to them, "What are these words that you are exchanging with one another as you are walking ?" And they stood still, looking sad.

17 He asked them, "What are you discussing together as you walk along?" They stood still, their faces downcast.

18 One of them, named Cleopas, answered and said to Him, "Are You the only one visiting Jerusalem and unaware of the things which have happened here in these days ?"

18 One of them, named Cleopas, asked him, "Are you only a visitor to Jerusalem and do not know the things that have happened there in these days?"

19 And He said to them, "What things ?" And they said to Him, "The things about Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word in the sight of God and all the people,

19 "What things?" he asked. "About Jesus of Nazareth," they replied. "He was a prophet, powerful in word and deed before God and all the people.

20 and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him to the sentence of death, and crucified Him.

20 The chief priests and our rulers handed him over to be sentenced to death, and they crucified him;

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

21 but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. And what is more, it is the third day since all this took place.

22 "But also some women among us amazed us. When they were at the tomb early in the morning,

22 In addition, some of our women amazed us. They went to the tomb early this morning

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

23 but didn't find his body. They came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels, who said he was alive.

24 "Some of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just exactly as the women also had said ; but Him they did not see."

24 Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but him they did not see."

25 And He said to them, "O foolish men and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken !

25 He said to them, "How foolish you are, and how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!

26 "Was it not necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and to enter into His glory ?"

26 Did not the Christ have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?"

27 Then beginning with Moses and with all the prophets, He explained to them the things concerning Himself in all the Scriptures.

27 And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.

28 And they approached the village where they were going, and He acted as though He were going farther.

28 As they approached the village to which they were going, Jesus acted as if he were going farther.

29 But they urged Him, saying, "Stay with us, for it is getting toward evening, and the day is now nearly over." So He went in to stay with them.

29 But they urged him strongly, "Stay with us, for it is nearly evening; the day is almost over." So he went in to stay with them.

30 When He had reclined at the table with them, He took the bread and blessed it, and breaking it, He began giving it to them.

30 When he was at the table with them, he took bread, gave thanks, broke it and began to give it to them.

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

31 Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, and he disappeared from their sight.

32 They said to one another, "Were not our hearts burning within us while He was speaking to us on the road, while He was explaining the Scriptures to us?"

32 They asked each other, "Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?"

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

33 They got up and returned at once to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, assembled together

34 saying, "The Lord has really risen and has appeared to Simon."

34 and saying, "It is true! The Lord has risen and has appeared to Simon."

35 They began to relate their experiences on the road and how He was recognized by them in the breaking of the bread.

35 Then the two told what had happened on the way, and how Jesus was recognized by them when he broke the bread.

36 While they were telling these things, He Himself stood in their midst and said to them, "Peace be to you."

36 While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, "Peace be with you."

37 But they were startled and frightened and thought that they were seeing a spirit.

37 They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost.

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

38 He said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds?

39 "See My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself ; touch Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have."

39 Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself ! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have."

40 And when He had said this, He showed them His hands and His feet.

40 When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet.

41 While they still could not believe it because of their joy and amazement, He said to them, "Have you anything here to eat ?"

41 And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, "Do you have anything here to eat?"

42 They gave Him a piece of a broiled fish ;

42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish,

43 and He took it and ate it before them.

43 and he took it and ate it in their presence.

44 Now He said to them, "These are My words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things which are written about Me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled."

44 He said to them, "This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms."

45 Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures,

45 Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures.

46 and He said to them, "Thus it is written, that the Christ would suffer and rise again from the dead the third day,

46 He told them, "This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day,

47 and that repentance for forgiveness of sins would be proclaimed in His name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.

47 and repentance and forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

48 "You are witnesses of these things.

48 You are witnesses of these things.

49 "And behold, I am sending forth the promise of My Father upon you; but you are to stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on high."

49 I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high."

50 And He led them out as far as Bethany, and He lifted up His hands and blessed them.

50 When he had led them out to the vicinity of Bethany, he lifted up his hands and blessed them.

51 While He was blessing them, He parted from them and was carried up into heaven.

51 While he was blessing them, he left them and was taken up into heaven.

52 And they, after worshiping Him, returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

52 Then they worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy.

53 and were continually in the temple praising God.

53 And they stayed continually at the temple, praising God.
