2And they found the stone turned away from the grave.
3And they went in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
4And it was done, the while they were astonied in thought of this thing, lo! two men stood beside them in shining cloth or shining clothing.
5And when they dreaded, and bowed their semblance into the earth, they said to them, What seek ye him that liveth with dead men? or What seek ye the living with the dead?
6He is not here, but is risen. Have ye mind, how he spake to you, when he was yet in Galilee,
7and said, 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.
8And they bethought on his words.
9And they went again from the grave, and told all these things to the eleven, and to all the others.
10And there was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary of James, and other women that were with them, that said to the apostles these things or that said these things to the apostles.
11And these words were seen to them as madness, and they believed not to them.
12But 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.
13And lo! twain of them went in that day into a castle, that was from Jerusalem the space of sixty furlongs, by name Emmaus.
14And they spake together of all these things that had befallen.
15And it was done, the while they talked, and sought by themselves, Jesus himself nighed, and went with them.
16But their eyes were holden, that they knew him not.
17And he said to them, What be these words, that ye speak together wandering, and ye be sorrowful?
18And one, whose name was Cleopas, answered, and said to him, Thou thyself art a pilgrim in Jerusalem, and hast thou not known, what things be done in it in these days?
19To whom he said, What things? And they said to him, Of Jesus of Nazareth, that was a man prophet, mighty in work and word before God and all the people;
20and how the high priests and our princes betook him into condemnation or into damnation of death, and crucified him.
21But we hoped, that he should have again-bought Israel. And now on all these things the third day is today, that these things were done.
22But also some women of ours made us afeared, which before day-light were at the grave;
23and when his body was not found, they came, and said, that they saw also a sight of angels, which said, that he liveth.
24And some men of ours went to the grave, and they found so as the women said, but they found not him.
25And he said to them, A! fools, and slow of heart to believe in all things that the prophets have spoken.
26Whether it behooved not Christ to suffer these things, and so to enter into his glory?
