Luke 24
King James Version
24 Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.
2 And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.
3 And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
4 And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:
5 And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?
6 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,
7 Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
8 And they remembered his words,
9 And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.
10 It was Mary Magdalene and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles.
11 And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.
12 Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.
13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.
14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened.
15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.
17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?
19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:
20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.
22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;
23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.
24 And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.
25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:
26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?
27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.
29 But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.
30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.
31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.
32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?
33 And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,
34 Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.
35 And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.
36 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.
38 And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?
39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.
40 And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet.
41 And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?
42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.
43 And he took it, and did eat before them.
44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
48 And ye are witnesses of these things.
49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
50 And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.
51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.
52 And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:
53 And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.
Lukas 24
Luther Bibel 1545
24 Aber am ersten Tage der Woche sehr früh kamen sie zum Grabe und trugen die Spezerei, die sie bereitet hatten, und etliche mit ihnen.
2 Sie fanden aber den Stein abgewälzt von dem Grabe
3 und gingen hinein und fanden den Leib des HERRN Jesu nicht.
4 Und da sie darum bekümmert waren, siehe, da traten zu ihnen zwei Männer mit glänzenden Kleidern.
5 Und sie erschraken und schlugen ihre Angesichter nieder zur Erde. Da sprachen die zu ihnen: Was suchet ihr den Lebendigen bei den Toten?
6 Er ist nicht hier; er ist auferstanden. Gedenket daran, wie er euch sagte, da er noch in Galiläa war
7 und sprach: Des Menschen Sohn muß überantwortet werden in die Hände der Sünder und gekreuzigt werden und am dritten Tage auferstehen.
8 Und sie gedachten an seine Worte.
9 Und sie gingen wieder vom Grabe und verkündigten das alles den Elfen und den andern allen.
10 Es war aber Maria Magdalena und Johanna und Maria, des Jakobus Mutter, und andere mit ihnen, die solches den Aposteln sagten.
11 Und es deuchten sie ihre Worte eben, als wären's Märlein, und sie glaubten ihnen nicht.
12 Petrus aber stand auf und lief zum Grabe und bückte sich hinein und sah die leinenen Tücher allein liegen; und ging davon, und es nahm ihn wunder, wie es zuginge.
13 Und siehe, zwei aus ihnen gingen an demselben Tage in einen Flecken, der war von Jerusalem sechzig Feld Wegs weit; des Name heißt Emmaus.
14 Und sie redeten miteinander von allen diesen Geschichten.
15 Und es geschah, da sie so redeten und befragten sich miteinander, nahte sich Jesus zu ihnen und wandelte mit ihnen.
16 Aber ihre Augen wurden gehalten, daß sie ihn nicht kannten.
17 Er sprach aber zu ihnen: Was sind das für Reden, die ihr zwischen euch handelt unterwegs, und seid traurig?
18 Da antwortete einer mit Namen Kleophas und sprach zu ihm: Bist du allein unter den Fremdlingen zu Jerusalem, der nicht wisse, was in diesen Tagen darin geschehen ist?
19 Und er sprach zu ihnen: Welches? Sie aber sprachen zu ihm: Das von Jesus von Nazareth, welcher war ein Prophet mächtig von Taten und Worten vor Gott und allem Volk;
20 wie ihn unsre Hohenpriester und Obersten überantwortet haben zur Verdammnis des Todes und gekreuzigt.
21 Wir aber hofften, er sollte Israel erlösen. Und über das alles ist heute der dritte Tag, daß solches geschehen ist.
22 Auch haben uns erschreckt etliche Weiber der Unsern; die sind früh bei dem Grabe gewesen,
23 haben seinen Leib nicht gefunden, kommen und sagen, sie haben ein Gesicht der Engel gesehen, welche sagen, er lebe.
24 Und etliche unter uns gingen hin zum Grabe und fanden's also, wie die Weiber sagten; aber ihn sahen sie nicht.
25 Und er sprach zu ihnen: O ihr Toren und träges Herzens, zu glauben alle dem, was die Propheten geredet haben!
26 Mußte nicht Christus solches leiden und zu seiner Herrlichkeit eingehen?
27 Und fing an von Mose und allen Propheten und legte ihnen alle Schriften aus, die von ihm gesagt waren.
28 Und sie kamen nahe zum Flecken, da sie hineingingen; und er stellte sich, als wollte er weiter gehen.
29 Und sie nötigten ihn und sprachen: Bleibe bei uns; denn es will Abend werden, und der Tag hat sich geneigt. Und er ging hinein, bei ihnen zu bleiben.
30 Und es geschah, da er mit ihnen zu Tische saß, nahm er das Brot, dankte, brach's und gab's ihnen.
31 Da wurden ihre Augen geöffnet, und sie erkannten ihn. Und er verschwand vor ihnen.
32 Und sie sprachen untereinander: Brannte nicht unser Herz in uns, da er mit uns redete auf dem Wege, als er uns die Schrift öffnete?
33 Und sie standen auf zu derselben Stunde, kehrten wieder gen Jerusalem und fanden die Elf versammelt und die bei ihnen waren,
34 welche sprachen: Der HERR ist wahrhaftig auferstanden und Simon erschienen.
35 Und sie erzählten ihnen, was auf dem Wege geschehen war und wie er von ihnen erkannt wäre an dem, da er das Brot brach.
36 Da sie aber davon redeten, trat er selbst, Jesus, mitten unter sie und sprach: Friede sei mit euch!
37 Sie erschraken aber und fürchteten sich, meinten, sie sähen einen Geist.
38 Und er sprach zu ihnen: Was seid ihr so erschrocken, und warum kommen solche Gedanken in euer Herz?
39 Sehet meine Hände und meine Füße: ich bin's selber. Fühlet mich an und sehet; denn ein Geist hat nicht Fleisch und Bein, wie ihr sehet, daß ich habe.
40 Und da er das sagte, zeigte er ihnen Hände und Füße.
41 Da sie aber noch nicht glaubten, vor Freuden und sich verwunderten, sprach er zu ihnen: Habt ihr etwas zu essen?
42 Und sie legten ihm vor ein Stück von gebratenem Fisch und Honigseim.
43 Und er nahm's und aß vor ihnen.
44 Er sprach aber zu ihnen: Das sind die Reden, die ich zu euch sagte, da ich noch bei euch war; denn es muß alles erfüllet werden, was von mir geschrieben ist im Gesetz Mose's, in den Propheten und in den Psalmen.
45 Da öffnete er ihnen das Verständnis, daß sie die Schrift verstanden,
46 und er sprach zu ihnen: Also ist's geschrieben, und also mußte Christus leiden und auferstehen von den Toten am dritten Tage
47 und predigen lassen in seinem Namen Buße und Vergebung der Sünden unter allen Völkern und anheben zu Jerusalem.
48 Ihr aber seid des alles Zeugen.
49 Und siehe, ich will auf euch senden die Verheißung meines Vaters. Ihr aber sollt in der Stadt Jerusalem bleiben, bis ihr angetan werdet mit der Kraft aus der Höhe.
50 Er führte sie aber hinaus bis gen Bethanien und hob die Hände auf und segnete sie.
51 Und es geschah, da er sie segnete, schied er von ihnen und fuhr auf gen Himmel.
52 Sie aber beteten ihn an und kehrten wieder gen Jerusalem mit großer Freude
53 und waren allewege im Tempel, priesen und lobten Gott.
Luke 24
Wycliffe Bible
24 But in one day of the week full early they came to the grave, and brought sweet smelling spices, that they had arrayed [bringing sweet spices, which they had made ready].
2 And they found the stone turned away from the grave.
3 And they went in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
4 And it was done, the while [while] they were astonished in thought of this thing, lo! two men stood beside them in shining cloak[a].
5 And when they dreaded, and bowed their semblance into the earth, they said to them, What seek ye him that liveth with dead men [What seek ye the living with the dead]?
6 He is not here, but is risen. Have ye mind, how he spake to you, when he was yet in Galilee,
7 and said [saying], For it behooveth man's Son to be betaken into the hands of sinful men, and to be crucified, and the third day to rise again.
8 And they bethought on his words.
9 And they went again from the grave, and told all these things to the eleven, and to all [the] others.
10 And there was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary of James, and other women that were with them, that said to the apostles these things [that said these things to the apostles].
11 And these words were seen to them as madness [And these words were seen before them as madness], and they believed not to them.
12 But Peter rose up, and ran to the grave; and he bowed down, and saw the linen clothes lying alone. And he went by himself, wondering on that that was done.[b]
13 And lo! twain of them went in that day into a castle [And lo! two of them went in that day to a castle], that was from Jerusalem the space of sixty furlongs, by name Emmaus.
14 And they spake together of all these things that had befallen.
15 And it was done, the while they talked, and sought by themselves, Jesus himself approached, and went with them. [And it was done, while they talked, and sought with themselves, and Jesus himself nighing, went with them.]
16 But their eyes were holden, that they knew him not.
17 And he said to them, What be these words, that ye speak together wandering, and ye be sorrowful?
18 And one, whose name was Cleopas, answered, and said [to him], Thou thyself art a pilgrim in Jerusalem[c], and hast thou not known, what things be done in it in these days?
19 To whom he said, What things? And they said to him, Of Jesus of Nazareth, that was a man prophet, mighty in work and word before God and all the people;
20 and how the high priests and our princes betook him into condemnation of death [and how the highest priests and our princes betook him into damnation of death], and crucified him.
21 But we hoped, that he should have again-bought Israel. And now on all these things the third day is to day, that these things were done.
22 But also some women of ours made us afeared, which before day were at the grave [which before the light were at the grave];
23 and when his body was not found, they came, and said, that they saw also a sight of angels [they came, saying, them also to have seen a sight of angels], which said, that he liveth.
24 And some [men] of ours went to the grave, and they found so as the women said, but they found not him [but him they found not].
25 And he said to them, A! fools [O! fools], and slow of heart to believe in all things that the prophets have spoken.
26 Whether it behooved not Christ to suffer these things, and so to enter into his glory?
27 And he began at Moses and at all the prophets, and declared to them in all scriptures, that were of him. [And he beginning at Moses and all the prophets, expounded to them in all scriptures, which were of him.]
28 And they came nigh to the castle, whither they went. And he made countenance that he would go further.
29 And they constrained him, and said [saying], Dwell with us, for it draweth to night, and the day is now bowed down. And he entered [in] with them.
30 And it was done, while he sat at the meat with them, he took bread, and blessed, and brake, and took to them [and gave to them].
31 And the eyes of them were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished from their eyes.
32 And 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?
33 And they rose up in the same hour, and went again into Jerusalem [to Jerusalem], and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,
34 saying, That the Lord is risen verily, and appeared to Simon.
35 And they told what things were done in the way, and how they knew him in breaking of bread.
36 And while they spake these things, Jesus stood in the middle of them, and said to them, Peace to you; I am, do not ye dread.
37 But they were afraid and aghast, and guessed them to see a spirit.
38 And he said to them, What be ye troubled, and thoughts come up into your hearts [and thoughts ascend up into your hearts]?
39 See ye my hands and my feet, for I myself am. Feel ye, and see ye; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see that I have [as ye see me to have].
40 And when he had said this thing, he showed hands and feet to them.
41 And yet while they believed not, and wondered for joy, he said, Have ye here any thing that shall be eaten [Have ye any thing here that shall be eaten]?
42 And they proffered to him [And they offered to him] a part of a fish roasted, and an honeycomb.
43 And when he had eaten before them, he took that that (was) left, and gave to them; [And when he had eaten before them, he taking the reliefs, gave to them;]
44 and [he] said to them, These be the words that I spake to you [and he said to them, These be the words which I spake to you], when I was yet with you; for it is need that all things be fulfilled, that be written in the law of Moses [which be written in the law of Moses], and in prophets, and in psalms, of me.
45 Then he opened to them wit [Then he opened wit to them], that they should understand [the] scriptures.
46 And he said to them, For thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and rise again from death the third day [and to rise again from dead the third day];
47 and penance and remission of sins to be preached in his name to all folks, beginning at Jerusalem.
48 And ye be witnesses of these things.
49 And I shall send the promise of my Father into you [And I send the promise of my Father into you]; but sit ye in the city, till ye be clothed with virtue from on high.
50 And he led them forth into Bethany, and when his hands were lifted up [and, his hands lifted up], he blessed them.
51 And it was done, the while he blessed them [while he blessed them], he departed from them, and was borne into heaven.
52 And they worshipped, and went again into Jerusalem with great joy, [And they worshipping went again to Jerusalem with great joy;]
53 and were evermore in the temple [and were ever in the temple], praising and blessing God.
