Luke 24:13-48

13 And lo, two of them, on the same day, were going to a village named Emmaus, distant sixty furlongs from Jerusalem. 14 And they talked together of all that had occurred. 15 And as they conversed, and questioned each other, Jesus came, and drew near, and walked with them. 16 And their eyes were held, that they did not recognize him. 17 And he said to them: What are these discourses, which ye hold with each other, as ye walk and are sad? 18 And one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answered and said to him: Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, that thou knowest not the things that have occurred there in these days? 19 He said to them: What things? They say to him: In regard to Jesus of Nazareth, a man who was a prophet, and mighty in discourse and in action, before God, and before all the people. 20 And the chief priests and Elders delivered him up to a sentence of death, and crucified him. 21 But we expected that he was to deliver Israel. And lo, three days have passed, since all these things occurred. 22 And moreover, certain women of ours astonished us; for they went early to the sepulchre; 23 and as they did not find the body, they came and said to us: We saw angels there, and they said that he is alive. 24 And also some of us went to the sepulchre; and they found, as the women reported; but him they saw not. 25 Then Jesus said to them: O deficient in understanding, and slow of heart to believe all the things that the prophets uttered. 26 Were not these things to be; that the Messiah should suffer and that he should enter into his glory? 27 Then he began from Moses, and from all the prophets, and expounded to them concerning himself from all the scriptures. 28 And they drew near to the village to which they were going; and he made them feel, as if he would go to a more distant place. 29 And they urged him, and said to him: Tarry with us, for the day inclineth towards dark. And he went in to remain with them. 30 And it occurred, while he reclined with them, that he took bread, and blessed, and brake, and gave to them. 31 And instantly, their eyes were opened, and, they knew him. And he took himself from them. 32 And they said one to another: Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and explained to us the scriptures? 33 And they arose, the same hour, and returned: to Jerusalem. And they found the eleven assembled, and those with them, 34 who were saying: Certainly, our Lord hath risen; and he hath appeared to Simon. 35 And they also related what occurred by the way, and how he became known to them, when he broke bread. 36 And while they were talking of these things, Jesus stood in the midst of them, and said to them: Peace be with you! It is I; be not afraid. 37 And they were in trepidation and fear, for they supposed they saw a spirit. 38 Jesus said to them: Why are ye agitated? And why do imaginations arise in your hearts? 39 Look at my hands and my feet, that it is myself. Handle me, and know; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. 40 And as he said thus, he showed them his hands and his feet. 41 And while they still believed not, for their joy, and were astonished; he said to them: Have ye here any thing to eat? 42 And they gave him a piece of broiled fish, and of honeycomb. 43 And he took, and ate before them. 44 And he said to them: These are the things which I said to you while I was with you, That all things written of me, in the law of Moses and in the prophets and in the psalms, must be fulfilled. 45 Then he opened their mind to understand the scriptures. 46 And he said to them: Thus it is written, and thus it was right for Messiah to suffer, and rise from the dead on the third day; 47 and that, in his name, repentance for the remission of sins should be preached among all nations, and that the commencement be at Jerusalem. 48 And ye are the witnesses of these things.

John 3:16

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him, should not perish, but should have life eternal.
