Luke 24:1-53 ASV14 - Bible AI

¹But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came unto the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain [others] with them.

²And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb.

³And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

⁴And it came to pass, while they were perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel:

⁵and as they were affrighted and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?

⁶He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,

⁷saying that, The Son of man must be delivered up into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

⁸And they remembered his words,

⁹and returned from the tomb, and told all these things to the eleven, and to all the rest.

¹⁰Now they were Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the [mother] of James, and the other women with them, who told these things unto the apostles.

¹¹And these words appeared in their sight as idle talk; and they disbelieved them.

¹²But Peter arose, and ran unto the tomb; and stooping and looking in, he seeth the linen cloths lying by themselves; and he departed to his home, wondering at that which was come to pass.

¹³And behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was sixty stadia from Jerusalem.

¹⁴And they communed with each other of all these things which had happened.

¹⁵And it came to pass, while they communed and questioned together, that Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.

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

¹⁷And he said unto them, What communications are these that ye have one with another, as ye walk, and are sad?

¹⁸And one of them, named Cleopas, answering said unto him, Dost thou alone sojourn in Jerusalem and not know the things which are come to pass there in these days?

¹⁹And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:

²⁰and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him.

²¹But we hoped that it was he who should redeem Israel. Yea and besides all this, today is the third day since these things came to pass.

²²Moreover certain women of our company amazed us, having been early at the tomb;

²³and when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.

²⁴And certain of them that were with us went to the tomb, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.

²⁵And he said unto them, O foolish men, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

²⁶Behooved it not the Christ to suffer these things, and to enter into his glory?

²⁷And beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he interpreted to them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

²⁸And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they were going: and he made as though he would go further.

²⁹And they constrained him, saying, Abide with us; for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to abide with them.

³⁰And it came to pass, when he had sat down with them to meat, he took the bread and blessed; and breaking [it] he gave to them.

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

³²And they said one to another, Was not our heart burning within us, while he spake to us in the way, while he opened to us the scriptures?

³³And they rose up that very hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,

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

³⁵And they rehearsed the things [that happened] in the way, and how he was known of them in the breaking of the bread.

³⁶And as they spake these things, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace [be] unto you.

³⁷But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they beheld a spirit.

³⁸And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and wherefore do questionings arise in your heart?

³⁹See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye behold me having.

⁴⁰And when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet.

⁴¹And while they still disbelieved for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here anything to eat?

⁴²And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of a honeycomb.

⁴³And he took it, and ate before them.

⁴⁴And he said unto them, These are my words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must needs be fulfilled, which are written in the law of Moses, and the prophets, and the psalms, concerning me.

⁴⁵Then opened he their mind, that they might understand the scriptures;

⁴⁶and he said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and rise again from the dead the third day;

⁴⁷and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name unto all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.

⁴⁸Ye are witnesses of these things.

⁴⁹And behold, I send forth the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be clothed with power from on high.

⁵⁰And he led them out until [they were] over against Bethany: and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.

⁵¹And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he parted from them, and was carried up into heaven.

⁵²And they worshiped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:

⁵³and were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.
