La risurrezione di Gesù

24 (A)Ma il primo giorno della settimana, la mattina prestissimo, esse [e altre donne con loro] si recarono al sepolcro, portando gli aromi che avevano preparati. E trovarono che la pietra era stata rotolata dal sepolcro. Ma quando entrarono non trovarono il corpo del Signore Gesù. Mentre se ne stavano perplesse di questo fatto, ecco che apparvero davanti a loro due uomini in vesti risplendenti; tutte impaurite chinarono il viso a terra, ma quelli dissero loro: «Perché cercate il vivente tra i morti? Egli non è qui, ma è risuscitato; ricordate come egli vi parlò quand’era ancora in Galilea, dicendo che il Figlio dell’uomo doveva essere dato nelle mani di uomini peccatori ed essere crocifisso, e il terzo giorno risuscitare». Esse si ricordarono delle sue parole.

(B)Tornate dal sepolcro, annunciarono tutte queste cose agli undici e a tutti gli altri. 10 Quelle che dissero queste cose agli apostoli erano: Maria Maddalena, Giovanna, Maria, madre di Giacomo, e le altre donne che erano con loro. 11 Quelle parole[a] sembrarono loro un vaneggiare e non gli credettero.

12 Ma Pietro, alzatosi, corse al sepolcro; si chinò a guardare e vide solo le fasce [che giacevano]; poi se ne andò, meravigliandosi dentro di sé per quello che era avvenuto.

Gesù sulla via per Emmaus

13 (C)Due di loro se ne andavano in quello stesso giorno a un villaggio di nome Emmaus, distante da Gerusalemme sessanta stadi[b]; 14 e parlavano tra di loro di tutte le cose che erano accadute. 15 Mentre discorrevano e discutevano insieme, Gesù stesso si avvicinò e cominciò a camminare con loro. 16 Ma i loro occhi erano impediti a tal punto che non lo riconoscevano. 17 Egli domandò loro: «Di che discorrete fra di voi lungo il cammino?» Ed essi si fermarono tutti tristi[c]. 18 Uno dei due, che si chiamava Cleopa, gli rispose: «Tu solo, tra i forestieri, stando in Gerusalemme, non hai saputo le cose che vi sono accadute in questi giorni?» 19 Egli disse loro: «Quali?» Essi gli risposero: «Il fatto di Gesù Nazareno, che era un profeta potente in opere e in parole davanti a Dio e a tutto il popolo; 20 come i capi dei sacerdoti e i nostri magistrati lo hanno fatto condannare a morte e lo hanno crocifisso. 21 Noi speravamo che fosse lui che avrebbe liberato Israele; invece, con tutto ciò, ecco il terzo giorno da quando sono accadute queste cose. 22 È vero che certe donne tra di noi ci hanno fatto stupire; andate la mattina di buon’ora al sepolcro, 23 non hanno trovato il suo corpo, e sono ritornate dicendo di aver avuto anche una visione di angeli, i quali dicono che egli è vivo. 24 Alcuni dei nostri sono andati al sepolcro e hanno trovato tutto come avevano detto le donne, ma lui non lo hanno visto». 25 Allora Gesù disse loro: «O insensati e lenti di cuore nel credere a tutte le cose che i profeti hanno dette! 26 Non doveva il Cristo soffrire tutto ciò ed entrare nella sua gloria?» 27 E, cominciando da Mosè e da tutti i profeti, spiegò loro in tutte le Scritture le cose che lo riguardavano. 28 Quando si furono avvicinati al villaggio dove stavano andando, egli fece come se volesse proseguire. 29 Essi lo trattennero, dicendo: «Rimani con noi, perché si fa sera e il giorno sta per finire». Ed egli entrò per rimanere con loro. 30 Quando fu a tavola con loro prese il pane, lo benedisse, lo spezzò e lo diede loro. 31 Allora i loro occhi furono aperti e lo riconobbero, ma egli scomparve alla loro vista. 32 Ed essi dissero l’uno all’altro: «Non sentivamo forse ardere il cuore {dentro di noi} mentre egli ci parlava per la via e ci spiegava le Scritture?» 33 E, alzatisi in quello stesso momento, tornarono a Gerusalemme e trovarono riuniti gli undici e quelli che erano con loro, 34 i quali dicevano: «Il Signore è veramente risorto ed è apparso a Simone». 35 Essi pure raccontarono le cose avvenute loro per la via, e come era stato da loro riconosciuto nello spezzare il pane.

36 (D)Ora, mentre essi parlavano di queste cose, Gesù stesso[d] comparve in mezzo a loro e disse: «Pace a voi!» 37 Ma essi, sconvolti e atterriti, pensavano di vedere uno spirito. 38 Ed egli disse loro: «Perché siete turbati? E perché sorgono dubbi nel vostro cuore[e]? 39 Guardate le mie mani e i miei piedi, perché sono proprio io! Toccatemi e guardate, perché uno spirito non ha carne e ossa, come vedete che ho io».

40 E, detto questo, mostrò loro le mani e i piedi. 41 Ma siccome per la gioia non credevano ancora e si stupivano, disse loro: «Avete qui qualcosa da mangiare?» 42 Essi gli porsero un pezzo di pesce arrostito [e una parte di favo di miele]; 43 egli lo prese, e mangiò in loro presenza.

La missione affidata ai discepoli

44 (E)Poi disse loro: «Queste sono le cose che io vi dicevo quand’ero ancora con voi: che si dovevano compiere tutte le cose scritte di me nella legge di Mosè, nei profeti e nei Salmi». 45 Allora aprì loro la mente per capire le Scritture e disse loro: 46 «Così è scritto, che il Cristo avrebbe sofferto e sarebbe risorto[f] dai morti il terzo giorno, 47 e che nel suo nome si sarebbe predicato il ravvedimento per il perdono[g] dei peccati a tutte le genti, cominciando da Gerusalemme. 48 Voi siete testimoni di queste cose. 49 Ed {ecco,} io mando su di voi quello che il Padre mio ha promesso; ma voi, rimanete in città[h], finché siate rivestiti di potenza dall’alto».

L’ascensione di Gesù

50 (F)Poi li condusse fuori fin presso Betania; e, alzate in alto le mani, li benedisse. 51 Mentre li benediceva, si staccò da loro e fu portato su nel cielo. 52 Ed essi, adoratolo, tornarono a Gerusalemme con grande gioia; 53 e stavano sempre nel tempio, [lodando e] benedicendo Dio. [Amen.]

Jesus Has Risen(A)

24 On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared(B) and went to the tomb. They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.(C) While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning(D) stood beside them. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee:(E) ‘The Son of Man(F) must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’(G) Then they remembered his words.(H)

When they came back from the tomb, they told all these things to the Eleven and to all the others. 10 It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the others with them(I) who told this to the apostles.(J) 11 But they did not believe(K) the women, because their words seemed to them like nonsense. 12 Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb. Bending over, he saw the strips of linen lying by themselves,(L) and he went away,(M) wondering to himself what had happened.

On the Road to Emmaus

13 Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles[a] from Jerusalem.(N) 14 They were talking with each other about everything that had happened. 15 As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them;(O) 16 but they were kept from recognizing him.(P)

17 He asked them, “What are you discussing together as you walk along?”

They stood still, their faces downcast. 18 One of them, named Cleopas,(Q) asked him, “Are you the only one visiting Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?”

19 “What things?” he asked.

“About Jesus of Nazareth,”(R) they replied. “He was a prophet,(S) powerful in word and deed before God and all the people. 20 The chief priests and our rulers(T) handed him over to be sentenced to death, and they crucified him; 21 but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel.(U) And what is more, it is the third day(V) since all this took place. 22 In addition, some of our women amazed us.(W) They went to the tomb early this morning 23 but didn’t find his body. They came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels, who said he was alive. 24 Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but they did not see Jesus.”(X)

25 He said to them, “How foolish you are, and how slow to believe all that the prophets have spoken! 26 Did not the Messiah have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?”(Y) 27 And beginning with Moses(Z) and all the Prophets,(AA) he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.(AB)

28 As they approached the village to which they were going, Jesus continued on as if he were going farther. 29 But they urged him strongly, “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening; the day is almost over.” So he went in to stay with them.

30 When he was at the table with them, he took bread, gave thanks, broke it(AC) and began to give it to them. 31 Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him,(AD) and he disappeared from their sight. 32 They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us(AE) while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures(AF) to us?”

33 They got up and returned at once to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, assembled together 34 and saying, “It is true! The Lord(AG) has risen and has appeared to Simon.”(AH) 35 Then the two told what had happened on the way, and how Jesus was recognized by them when he broke the bread.(AI)

Jesus Appears to the Disciples

36 While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.”(AJ)

37 They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost.(AK) 38 He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? 39 Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see;(AL) a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”

40 When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet. 41 And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?” 42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish, 43 and he took it and ate it in their presence.(AM)

44 He said to them, “This is what I told you while I was still with you:(AN) Everything must be fulfilled(AO) that is written about me in the Law of Moses,(AP) the Prophets(AQ) and the Psalms.”(AR)

45 Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. 46 He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer(AS) and rise from the dead on the third day,(AT) 47 and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name(AU) to all nations,(AV) beginning at Jerusalem.(AW) 48 You are witnesses(AX) of these things. 49 I am going to send you what my Father has promised;(AY) but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”

The Ascension of Jesus

50 When he had led them out to the vicinity of Bethany,(AZ) he lifted up his hands and blessed them. 51 While he was blessing them, he left them and was taken up into heaven.(BA) 52 Then they worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy. 53 And they stayed continually at the temple,(BB) praising God.

The Resurrection

24 (A)But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, (B)taking the spices they had prepared. And they found (C)the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were perplexed about this, behold, (D)two (E)men stood by them in dazzling apparel. And as they were (F)frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen. Remember how he told you, (G)while he was still in Galilee, (H)that the Son of Man (I)must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and (J)be crucified and on (K)the third day rise.” And (L)they remembered his words, and returning from the tomb they (M)told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest. 10 Now it was (N)Mary Magdalene and (O)Joanna and Mary the mother of James and the other women with them who told these things to the apostles, 11 but these words seemed to them an idle tale, and (P)they did not believe them. 12 But (Q)Peter rose and ran to the tomb; stooping and looking in, he saw (R)the linen cloths by themselves; and he went home marveling at what had happened.

On the Road to Emmaus

13 That very day (S)two of them were going to a village named Emmaus, about seven miles[a] from Jerusalem, 14 and they were talking with each other about all these things that had happened. 15 While they were talking and discussing together, Jesus himself drew near and went with them. 16 (T)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 (U)a prophet (V)mighty in deed and word before God and all the people, 20 and (W)how our chief priests and (X)rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him. 21 But we had hoped that he was (Y)the one to redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now (Z)the third day since these things happened. 22 Moreover, some women of our company amazed us. (AA)They were at the tomb early in the morning, 23 and (AB)when they did not find his body, they came back saying that (AC)they had even seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive. 24 (AD)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 (AE)Was it not necessary that (AF)the Christ should suffer these things and enter into (AG)his glory?” 27 And (AH)beginning with (AI)Moses and (AJ)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. (AK)He acted as if he were going farther, 29 but they urged him strongly, saying, “Stay with us, for it is toward evening and (AL)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 (AM)blessed and broke it and gave it to them. 31 (AN)And their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And (AO)he vanished from their sight. 32 They said to each other, (AP)“Did not our hearts burn within us while he talked to us on the road, while he (AQ)opened to us the Scriptures?” 33 And they rose that same hour and returned to Jerusalem. And they (AR)found the eleven and (AS)those who were with them gathered together, 34 saying, “The Lord has risen indeed, and (AT)has appeared to Simon!” 35 Then they told what had happened on the road, and (AU)how he was known to them in (AV)the breaking of the bread.

Jesus Appears to His Disciples

36 As they were talking about these things, (AW)Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace to you!” 37 But they were (AX)startled and (AY)frightened and (AZ)thought they saw a spirit. 38 And he said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39 See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. (BA)Touch me, and see. For a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.” 40 And when he had said this, (BB)he showed them his hands and his feet. 41 And while they still disbelieved (BC)for joy and were marveling, (BD)he said to them, “Have you anything here to eat?” 42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish,[b] 43 and he took it and ate before them.

44 Then he said to them, (BE)“These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, (BF)that everything written about me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled.” 45 Then (BG)he opened their minds to understand the Scriptures, 46 and said to them, “Thus (BH)it is written, (BI)that the Christ should suffer and on the third day (BJ)rise from the dead, 47 and that (BK)repentance for[c] the forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed (BL)in his name (BM)to all nations, (BN)beginning from Jerusalem. 48 (BO)You are witnesses of these things. 49 And behold, I am sending (BP)the promise of my Father upon you. But stay in the city until you (BQ)are clothed with (BR)power (BS)from on high.”

The Ascension

50 And (BT)he led them out as far as (BU)Bethany, and lifting up his hands he blessed them. 51 While he blessed them, (BV)he parted from them and was carried up into heaven. 52 And they (BW)worshiped him and (BX)returned to Jerusalem (BY)with great joy, 53 and (BZ)were continually in the temple (CA)blessing God.
