Luke 24

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

1 Very early on Sunday morning the women went to the tomb. They were carrying the spices that they had prepared.

2 They found that the stone had been rolled away from the tomb.

3 When they went in, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

4 While they were puzzled about this, two men in clothes that were as bright as lightning suddenly stood beside them.

5 The women were terrified and bowed to the ground. The men asked the women, "Why are you looking among the dead for the living one?

6 He's not here. He has been brought back to life! Remember what he told you while he was still in Galilee.

7 He said, 'The Son of Man must be handed over to sinful people, be crucified, and come back to life on the third day.'"

8 Then the women remembered what Jesus had told them.

9 The women left the tomb and went back to the city. They told everything to the eleven apostles and all the others.

10 The women were Mary from Magdala, Joanna, and Mary (the mother of James). There were also other women with them. They told the apostles everything.

11 The apostles thought that the women's story didn't make any sense, and they didn't believe them.

12 But Peter got up and ran to the tomb. He bent down to look inside and saw only the strips of linen. Then he went away, wondering what had happened.

13 On the same day, two of Jesus' disciples were going to a village called Emmaus. It was about seven miles from Jerusalem.

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

15 While they were talking, Jesus approached them and began walking with them.

16 Although they saw him, they didn't recognize him.

17 He asked them, "What are you discussing?" They stopped and looked very sad.

18 One of them, Cleopas, replied, "Are you the only one in Jerusalem who doesn't know what has happened recently?"

19 "What happened?" he asked. They said to him, "We were discussing what happened to Jesus from Nazareth. He was a powerful prophet in what he did and said in the sight of God and all the people.

20 Our chief priests and rulers had him condemned to death and crucified.

21 We were hoping that he was the one who would free Israel. What's more, this is now the third day since everything happened.

22 Some of the women from our group startled us. They went to the tomb early this morning

23 and didn't find his body. They told us that they had seen angels who said that he's alive.

24 Some of our men went to the tomb and found it empty, as the women had said, but they didn't see him."

25 Then Jesus said to them, "How foolish you are! You're so slow to believe everything the prophets said!

26 Didn't the Messiah have to suffer these things and enter into his glory?"

27 Then he began with Moses' Teachings and the Prophets to explain to them what was said about him throughout the Scriptures.

28 When they came near the village where they were going, Jesus acted as if he were going farther.

29 They urged him, "Stay with us! It's getting late, and the day is almost over." So he went to stay with them.

30 While he was at the table with them, he took bread and blessed it. He broke the bread and gave it to them.

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

32 They said to each other, "Weren't we excited when he talked with us on the road and opened up the meaning of the Scriptures for us?"

33 That same hour they went back to Jerusalem. They found the eleven apostles and those who were with them gathered together.

34 They were saying, "The Lord has really come back to life and has appeared to Simon."

35 Then the two disciples told what had happened on the road and how they had recognized Jesus when he broke the bread.

36 While they were talking about what had happened, Jesus stood among them. He said to them, "Peace be with you!"

37 They were terrified, and thought they were seeing a ghost.

38 He asked them, "Why are you afraid? Why do you have doubts?

39 Look at my hands and feet, and see that it's really me. Touch me, and see for yourselves. Ghosts don't have flesh and bones, but you can see that I do."

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

41 The disciples were overcome with joy and amazement because this seemed too good to be true. Then Jesus asked them, "Do you have anything to eat?"

42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish.

43 He took it and ate it while they watched him.

44 Then he said to them, "These are the words I spoke to you while I was still with you. I told you that everything written about me in Moses' Teachings, the Prophets, and the Psalms had to come true."

45 Then he opened their minds to understand the Scriptures.

46 He said to them, "Scripture says that the Messiah would suffer and that he would come back to life on the third day.

47 Scripture also says that by the authority of Jesus people would be told to turn to God and change the way they think and act so that their sins will be forgiven. This would be told to people from all nations, beginning in the city of Jerusalem.

48 You are witnesses to these things.

49 "I'm sending you what my Father promised. Wait here in the city until you receive power from heaven."

50 Then Jesus took them to a place near Bethany. There he raised his hands and blessed them.

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

52 The disciples worshiped him and were overjoyed as they went back to Jerusalem.

53 They were always in the temple, where they praised God.

New King James Version NKJV

1 Now on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they, and certain other women with them, came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.

2 But they found the stone rolled away from the tomb.

3 Then they went in and did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

4 And it happened, as they were greatly perplexed about this, that behold, two men stood by them in shining garments.

5 Then, as they were afraid and bowed their faces to the earth, they said to them, "Why do you seek the living among the dead?

6 He is not here, but is risen! Remember how He spoke to you when He was still 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.' "

8 And they remembered His words.

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

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 seemed to them like idle tales, and they did not believe them.

12 But Peter arose and ran to the tomb; and stooping down, he saw the linen cloths lying by themselves; and he departed, marveling to himself at what had happened.

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

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

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

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

17 And He said to them, "What kind of conversation is this that you have with one another as you walk and are sad?"

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?" 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,

20 and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him to be condemned to death, and crucified Him.

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

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 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 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?"

27 And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself.

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

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

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 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 risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!"

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

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

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

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 does not have flesh and bones as you see I have."

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

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

42 So they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish and some honeycomb.

43 And He took it and ate in their presence.

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

46 Then 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 and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

48 And you are witnesses of these things.

49 Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high."

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

51 Now it came to pass, while He blessed them, that He was parted from them and carried up into heaven.

52 And they worshiped Him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

53 and were continually in the temple praising and blessing God. Amen.
