Luke 24:9-37

⁹And going back from the sepulchre, they told all these things to the eleven, and to all the rest.

¹⁰And it was Mary Magdalen, and Joanna, and Mary of James, and the other women that were with them, who told these things to the apostles.

¹¹And these words seemed to them as idle tales; and they did not believe them.

¹²But Peter rising up, ran to the sepulchre, and stooping down, he saw the linen cloths laid by themselves; and went away wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.

¹³And behold, two of them went, the same day, to a town which was sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, named Emmaus.

¹⁴And they talked together of all these things which had happened.

¹⁵And it came to pass, that while they talked and reasoned with themselves, Jesus himself also drawing near, went with them.

¹⁶But their eyes were held, that they should not know him.

¹⁷And he said to them: What are these discourses that you hold one with another as you walk, and are sad?

¹⁸And the one of them, whose name was Cleophas, answering, said to him: Art thou only a stranger to Jerusalem, and hast not known the things that have been done there in these days?

¹⁹To whom he said: What things? And they said: Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, mighty in work and word before God and all the people;

²⁰And how our chief priests and princes delivered him to be condemned to death, and crucified him.

²¹But we hoped, that it was he that should have redeemed Israel: and now besides all this, today is the third day since these things were done.

²²Yea and certain women also of our company affrighted us, who before it was light, were at the sepulchre,

²³And not finding his body, came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, who say that he is alive.

²⁴And some of our people went to the sepulchre, and found it so as the women had said, but him they found not.

²⁵Then he said to them: O foolish, and slow of heart to believe in all things which the prophets have spoken.

²⁶Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and so to enter into his glory?

²⁷And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded to them in all the scriptures, the things that were concerning him.

²⁸And they drew night to the town, whither they were going: and he made as though he would go farther.

²⁹But they constrained him; saying: Stay with us, because it is towards evening, and the day is now far spent. And he went in with them.

³⁰And it came to pass, whilst he was at table with them, he took bread, and blessed, and brake, and gave to them.

³¹And their eyes were opened, and they knew him: and he vanished out of their sight.

³²And they said one to the other: Was not our heart burning within us, whilst he spoke in this way, and opened to us the scriptures?

³³And rising up, the same hour, they went back to Jerusalem: and they found the eleven gathered together, and those that were staying with them,

³⁴Saying: The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.

³⁵And they told what things were done in the way; and how they knew him in the breaking of the bread.

³⁶Now whilst they were speaking these things, Jesus stood in the midst of them, and saith to them: Peace be to you; it is I, fear not.

³⁷But they being troubled and frightened, supposed that they saw a spirit.
