24:1 Now upon the first [day] of the week, very early in the
morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which
they had prepared, and certain [others] with them.
24:2 And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.
24:3 And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord
Jesus.
24:4 And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed
thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:
24:5 And as they were afraid, and bowed down [their] faces to
the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the
dead?
24:6 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto
you when he was yet in Galilee,
24:7 Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of
sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
24:8 And they remembered his words,
24:9 And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things
unto the eleven, and to all the rest.
24:10 It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary [the mother]
of James, and other [women that were] with them, which told
these things unto the apostles.
24:11 And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they
believed them not.
24:12 Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and
stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves,
and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to
pass.
24:13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village
called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem [about] threescore
furlongs.
24:14 And they talked together of all these things which had
happened.
24:15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed [together]
and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
24:16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.
24:17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications
[are] these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
24:18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering
said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast
not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?
24:19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto
him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in
deed and word before God and all the people:
24:20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to
be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
24:21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have
redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day
since these things were done.
24:22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us
astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;
24:23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that
they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was
alive.
24:24 And certain of them which were with us went to the
sepulchre, and found [it] even so as the women had said: but him
they saw not.
24:25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to
believe all that the prophets have spoken:
24:26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to
enter into his glory?
24:27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded
unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
24:28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went:
and he made as though he would have gone further.
24:29 But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it
is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to
tarry with them.
24:30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took
bread, and blessed [it], and brake, and gave to them.
24:31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he
vanished out of their sight.
24:32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn
within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he
opened to us the scriptures?
24:33 And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem,
and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with
them,
24:34 Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to
Simon.
24:35 And they told what things [were done] in the way, and how
he was known of them in breaking of bread.
24:36 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst
of them, and saith unto them, Peace [be] unto you.
24:37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that
they had seen a spirit.
24:38 And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do
thoughts arise in your hearts?
24:39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle
me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me
have.
24:40 And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them [his] hands
and [his] feet.
24:41 And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he
said unto them, Have ye here any meat?
24:42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an
honeycomb.
24:43 And he took [it], and did eat before them.
24:44 And he said unto them, These [are] the words which I
spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must
be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and [in]
the prophets, and [in] the psalms, concerning me.
24:45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might
understand the scriptures,
24:46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it
behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third
day:
24:47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be
preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
24:48 And ye are witnesses of these things.
24:49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you:
but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with
power from on high.
24:50 And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted
up his hands, and blessed them.
24:51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted
from them, and carried up to heaven.
24:52 And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with
great joy;
24:53 And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing
God. Amen.
