Luke 24:19-53

Lamsa(i) 19 He said to them, What things? They said to him, About Jesus of Nazareth, a man who was a prophet, mighty in word and deed before God and before all the people. 20 And the high priests and the elders delivered him up to the judgment of death, and they crucified him. 21 But we were hoping that he was the one to save Israel; and behold, it is three days since all these things happened. 22 And some of our women also amazed us, for they went early to the tomb; 23 And when his body was not found, they came, and said to us, We saw angels there, and they said that he is alive. 24 And some of our men also went to the tomb, and they found it so, as the women had said; but they did not see him. 25 Then Jesus said to them, O dull-minded heavy-hearted, slow to believe all that the prophets have spoken. 26 Did not Christ have to suffer all these things, and to enter into his glory? 27 And he began from Moses and from all the prophets, and interpreted to them from all the scriptures concerning himself. 28 And they drew near to the village, to which they were going; and he made them think that he was going to a far place. 29 But they urged him and said, Remain with us; because the day is spent and it is near dark. So he entered to stay with them. 30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread and blessed it, and broke it, and gave it to them. 31 And immediately their eyes were opened and they recognized him; and he was taken away from them. 32 And they said one to another, Were not our hearts heavy within us, when he spoke with us on the road, and interpreted the scriptures to us? 33 And they rose up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem; and they found the eleven gathered together, and those who were with them, 34 Saying, Truly our Lord has risen, and he has appeared to Simon. 35 And they also reported those things that happened on the road, and how they knew him as he broke the bread. 36 And while they were discussing these things, Jesus stood among them, and said to them, Peace be with you; it is I; do not be afraid. 37 And they were confused and frightened, for they thought they saw a spirit. The walk to Emmaus. 38 Jesus said to them, Why do you tremble? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? 39 Look at my hands and my feet, that it is I; feel me and understand; for a spirit has no flesh and bones, as you see I have. 40 When he said these things, he showed them his hands and his feet. 41 And as they still did not believe because of their joy, and they were bewildered, he said to them, Have you anything here to eat? 42 They gave him a portion of a broiled fish, and of a honeycomb. 43 And he took it, and ate before their eyes. 44 And he said to them, These are the words which I spoke to you when I was with you, that everything must be fulfilled which is written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me. 45 Then he opened their mind to understand the scriptures. 46 And he said to them, Thus it is written, and it was right that Christ should suffer, and rise from the dead on the third day; 47 And that repentance should be preached in his name for the forgiveness of sins among all nations; and the beginning will be from Jerusalem. 48 And you are witnesses of these things. 49 And I will send upon you the promise of my Father; but you remain in the city of Jerusalem, until you are clothed with power from on high. 50 And he took them out as far as Bethany, and he lifted up his hands and blessed them. 51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he parted from them, and went up to heaven. 52 And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy; 53 And they were always in the temple,
