Luke 24:25-51

²⁵And he said to them, A! fools (or O fools!), and slow of heart to believe in all (the) things that the prophets have spoken.

²⁶Whether it behooved not Christ to suffer these things (or Did it not behoove the Messiah to suffer these things), and so to enter into his glory?

²⁷And he began at Moses and at all the prophets, and declared or expounded to them in all (the) scriptures, that were of him (or that were about him).

²⁸And they came nigh to the castle, whither they went, (or And they came near to the village, where they were going). And he made countenance that he would go further.

²⁹And they constrained him, and said, Dwell with us (or Remain with us), for it draweth to (the) night, and the day is now bowed down. And (so) he entered in with them.

³⁰And it was done, while he sat at the meat with them (or while he sat down for the meal with them), he took bread, and blessed (it), and brake (it), and (then) took (it) to them or and (then) gave (it) to them.

³¹And the eyes of them were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished from their eyes.

³²And they said together, Whether our heart was not burning in us, while he spake to us in the way, and he opened to us the scriptures? (And they said to each other, Were not our hearts burning in us, while he spoke to us on the way, and he opened the Scriptures to us?)

³³And they rose up in the same hour, and went again into Jerusalem or (and) went again to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them, (And they rose up at once, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the Eleven gathered together, and those who were with them,)

³⁴saying, That the Lord is risen verily, and appeared to Simon. (and they were saying, Truly the Lord hath risen, or It is true that the Lord hath risen, and hath appeared to Simon.)

³⁵And they told what things were done in the way (or And then they told them what had happened on the way), and how they knew him in (the) breaking of (the) bread.

³⁶And while they spake these things, Jesus stood in the middle of them, and said to them, Peace (be) to you; I am (here), do not ye dread. (And while they spoke of these things, suddenly Jesus stood in their midst, and said to them, Peace be to you; I am here, do not fear, or do not be afraid.)

³⁷But they were afraid and aghast, and guessed them(selves) to see a spirit.

³⁸And he said to them, What be ye troubled (or Why be ye troubled), and thoughts come up into your hearts?

³⁹See ye my hands and my feet, for I myself am (or for I am here). Feel ye, and see ye; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see that I have.

⁴⁰And when he had said this thing, he showed (his) hands and feet to them.

⁴¹And yet while they believed not, and wondered for joy, he said, Have ye here anything that shall be eaten? or Have ye anything here that shall be eaten?

⁴²And they proffered to him a part of a fish roasted, and an honeycomb. And they offered to him a part of a fish roasted, and a comb of honey.

⁴³And when he had eaten before them, he took that that (was) left, and gave (it) to them;

⁴⁴and he said to them, These be the words that I spake to you, when I was yet with you; for it is need(ful) that all things be fulfilled, that be written in the law of Moses, and in (the) prophets, and in (the) psalms, of me (or about me).

⁴⁵Then he opened to them wit, that they should understand the scriptures. (Then he opened their minds, or their thinking, so that they could understand the Scriptures.)

⁴⁶And he said to them, For thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer (or and thus it behooved the Messiah to suffer), and rise again from death the third day or and rise again from (the) dead the third day;

⁴⁷and penance, and remission of sins to be preached in his name to all folks, beginning at Jerusalem. (and repentance, and forgiveness of sins to be preached in his name to all the nations and all the peoples, beginning at Jerusalem.)

⁴⁸And ye be (the) witnesses of these things.

⁴⁹And I shall send the promise of my Father into you; but sit ye in the city, till ye be clothed with virtue from on high, (or but remain in the city, until ye be clothed with power from on high).

⁵⁰And he led them forth into Bethany, and when his hands were lifted up, he blessed them.

⁵¹And it was done, the while he blessed them or while he blessed them, he departed from them, and was borne (up) into heaven.
