¹⁹ Then ^(A)God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. And she went and filled the skin with water and gave the boy a drink.

³¹ Then the Lord ^(A)opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the Lord standing in the way, with his drawn sword in his hand. And he bowed down and fell on his face.

^16 (A)But their eyes were kept from recognizing him. ¹⁷ And he said to them, “What is this conversation that you are holding with each other as you walk?” And they stood still, looking sad. ¹⁸ Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him, “Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?” ¹⁹ And he said to them, “What things?” And they said to him, “Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, a man who was ^(B)a prophet ^(C)mighty in deed and word before God and all the people, ²⁰ and ^(D)how our chief priests and ^(E)rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him. ²¹ But we had hoped that he was ^(F)the one to redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now ^(G)the third day since these things happened. ²² Moreover, some women of our company amazed us. ^(H)They were at the tomb early in the morning, ²³ and ^(I)when they did not find his body, they came back saying that ^(J)they had even seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive. ^24 (K)Some of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but him they did not see.” ²⁵ And he said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! ^26 (L)Was it not necessary that ^(M)the Christ should suffer these things and enter into ^(N)his glory?” ²⁷ And ^(O)beginning with ^(P)Moses and ^(Q)all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.

²⁸ So they drew near to the village to which they were going. ^(R)He acted as if he were going farther, ²⁹ but they urged him strongly, saying, “Stay with us, for it is toward evening and ^(S)the day is now far spent.” So he went in to stay with them. ³⁰ When he was at table with them, he took the bread and ^(T)blessed and broke it and gave it to them. ^31 (U)And their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And ^(V)he vanished from their sight.

¹⁷ Then Elisha prayed and said, “O Lord, please ^(A)open his eyes that he may see.” So the Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw, and behold, the mountain was full of ^(B)horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. ¹⁸ And when the Syrians came down against him, Elisha prayed to the Lord and said, “Please strike this people with blindness.” ^(C)So he struck them with blindness in accordance with the prayer of Elisha. ¹⁹ And Elisha said to them, “This is not the way, and this is not the city. Follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom you seek.” And he led them to Samaria.

²⁰ As soon as they entered Samaria, Elisha said, “O Lord, ^(D)open the eyes of these men, that they may see.” So the Lord opened their eyes and they saw, and behold, they were in the midst of Samaria.
