Luke 24 RHE/NIV - 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.

1 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.

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 back from the sepulchre.

2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb,

3 And going in, they found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

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

4 And it came to pass, as they were astonished in their mind at this, behold, two men stood by them, in shining apparel.

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

5 And as they were afraid and bowed down their countenance towards the ground, they said unto them: Why seek you the living with 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 is risen. Remember how he spoke unto you, when he was yet 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: 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 going back from the sepulchre, they told 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 And it was Mary Magdalen and Joanna and Mary of James and the other women that were with them, who told 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 And these words seemed to them as idle tales: and they did not believe them.

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

12 But Peter rising up, ran to the sepulchre and, stooping down, he saw the linen cloths laid by themselves: and went away wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.

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 went, the same day, to a town which was sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, named Emmaus.

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

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

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

15 And it came to pass that while they talked and reasoned with themselves, Jesus himself also, drawing near, went 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 held, that they should not know him.

16 but they were kept from recognizing him.

17 And he said to them: What are these discourses that you hold one with another as you walk and are sad?

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

18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleophas, answering, said to him: Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things that have been done there 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 To whom he said: What things? And they said: Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, mighty in work and word before 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 our chief priests and princes delivered him to be condemned to 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 hoped that it was he that should have redeemed Israel. And now besides all this, to-day is the third day since these things were done.

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 Yea and certain women also of our company affrighted us who, before it was light, were at the sepulchre,

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

23 And not finding his body, came, saying that they had all seen a vision of angels, who say that he is 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 And some of our people went to the sepulchre and found it so as the women had said: but him they found not.

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 Then he said to them: O foolish and slow of heart to believe in all things, Which 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 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things and so, to enter into his glory?

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

27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded to them in all the scriptures the things that were concerning him.

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 drew nigh to the town whither they were going: and he made as though he would go farther.

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

29 But they constrained him, saying: Stay with us, because it is towards evening and the day is now far spent. And he went in 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 And it came to pass, whilst he was at table with them, he took bread and blessed and brake and gave 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 And their eyes were opened: and they knew him. And he vanished out of their sight.

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

32 And they said one to the other: Was not our heart burning within us, whilst he spoke in the way and opened to us the scriptures?

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 rising up, the same hour, they went back to Jerusalem: and they found the eleven gathered together, and those that 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 is risen indeed and hath appeared to Simon.

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

35 And they told what things were done in the way: and how they knew him in the breaking of 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 Now, whilst they were speaking these things, Jesus stood in the midst of them and saith to them: Peace be to you. It is I: Fear not.

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

37 But they being troubled and frightened, supposed that they saw 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 thoughts 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 feet, that it is I myself. Handle, and see: for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as you see me to 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 shewed them his hands and feet.

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

41 But while they yet believed not and wondered for joy, he said: Have you here any thing 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 And they offered him a piece of a broiled fish and a honeycomb.

42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish,

43 And when he had eaten before them, taking the remains, he gave to them.

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

44 And he said to them: These are the words which I spoke to you while I was yet with you, that all things must needs be fulfilled which are written in the law of Moses and in the prophets and in the psalms, concerning me.

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 understanding, that they might 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, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer and to 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 penance and remission of sins should be preached in his name, unto all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

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

48 And you are witnesses of these things.

48 You are witnesses of these things.

49 And I send the promise of my Father upon you: but stay you in the city till you be endued 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 Bethania: and lifting up his hands, he blessed them.

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

51 And it came to pass, whilst he blessed them, he departed from them and was carried up to heaven.

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

52 And they adoring went back into Jerusalem with great joy.

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

53 And they were always in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.

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