Luke 24:7-17

7 and said [saying], For it behooveth man's Son to be betaken into the hands of sinful men, and to be crucified, and the third day to rise again.
8 And they bethought on his words.
9 And they went again from the grave, and told all these things to the eleven, and to all [the] others.
10 And there was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary of James, and other women that were with them, that said to the apostles these things [that said these things to the apostles].
11 And these words were seen to them as madness [And these words were seen before them as madness], and they believed not to them.
12 But Peter rose up, and ran to the grave; and he bowed down, and saw the linen clothes lying alone. And he went by himself, wondering on that that was done. [+Forsooth Peter rising, ran to the grave; and he bowing down, saw the linen clothes put alone. And he went, wondering with himself this thing that was done.]
13 And lo! twain of them went in that day into a castle [And lo! two of them went in that day to a castle], that was from Jerusalem the space of sixty furlongs, by name Emmaus.
14 And they spake together of all these things that had befallen.
15 And it was done, the while they talked, and sought by themselves, Jesus himself approached, and went with them. [And it was done, while they talked, and sought with themselves, and Jesus himself nighing, went with them.]
16 But their eyes were holden, that they knew him not.
17 And he said to them, What be these words, that ye speak together wandering, and ye be sorrowful?
