 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 showed 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 into 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.
