Luke 24
Worldwide English (New Testament)
24 On the first day of the week, early in the morning, the women went to the grave. They took with them the things they had made ready.
2 They saw that the stone was rolled away from the grave.
3 So they went in. But they did not see the body of the Lord Jesus.
4 They were troubled about this. Then they saw two men standing near them. They were dressed in white clothes.
5 The women were afraid and bowed their faces down to the ground. The men said to them, `Why do you look for a living person among dead people?
6 He is not here. He has risen. Remember what he told you when he was still in Galilee.
7 He said that the Son of Man would be given over to bad men. He would be nailed to a cross, and he would rise on the third day.'
8 Then they remembered what he had said.
9 They left the grave and went back. They told all these things to the eleven disciples and to all the other people.
10 The women who told these things to the apostles were Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women who were with them.
11 But Peter got up and ran to the grave. He bowed down and looked in. He saw the linen clothes lying there, but nothing more. Then he left, wondering about what had happened.
12 That same day, two of the disciples were going to the town called Emmaus. It was about two hours walk from Jerusalem.
13 They were talking together about all the things that had happened.
14 While they were talking and asking each other questions, Jesus himself came and walked with them.
15 But even though they saw him, they did not know who he was.
16 Jesus asked them, `What is this that you are talking about as you walk along looking so sad?'
17 One of them named Cleophas answered him. He said, `Are you a stranger in Jerusalem and do not know what has happened there these last days?'
18 Jesus said, `What things?" They said, `All that has happened to Jesus of Nazareth. He was a prophet of God. He had power to do big works and to teach the people. He was respected by God and all the people.
19 Our chief priests and rulers gave him over to be punished by death, and they nailed him to a cross.
20 But we were hoping that he was the one who would free the people of Israel. But that is not all. This is the third day since they did it.
21 Some of our women told us things that surprised us. Early this morning they were at the grave.
22 They did not find his body there. They came back and said that they saw angels. The angels told them that Jesus was living.
23 Some of us went to the grave. And they found everything just as the women said. But they did not see Jesus.'
24 Then he said to them, `You foolish men! Your hearts are slow to believe all that the prophets of God have said long ago.
25 Christ had to have this trouble and go to the place where he will be great, did he not?'
26 Then he told them the meaning of all that Moses and all the prophets of God long ago had written about him.
27 They came near the village to which they were going. It looked as if he was going on further.
28 But they begged him not to go further. They said, `Stay with us. It will soon be night. The day is almost finished.' So he went in to stay with them.
29 He sat down at the table with them. Then he took the bread and thanked God for it. He broke it and gave it to them.
30 Then they saw who he was. They knew him. And then suddenly they could not see him any more.
31 They said to each other, `It was like a fire burning in our hearts when he talked to us on the road and told us the meaning of the holy writings!'
32 They got up right then and went back to Jerusalem. There they found the eleven disciples together. Some other people were with them.
33 These people said, `The Lord has really risen! He came to Simon!'
34 Then the men from Emmaus told them what had happened on the road. They told how they knew Jesus when he broke bread and gave it to them.
35 While they were telling them this, Jesus himself stood there with them. He said to them, `Peace to you!'
36 They were troubled and afraid. They thought they were seeing a spirit.
37 He said to them, `Why are you troubled? Why do you wonder about these things in your hearts?
38 Look at my hands and my feet. You can see that it is I myself. Touch me with your hands and see. A spirit does not have a body and bones as you see I have.'
39 They gave him a piece of cooked fish.
40 He took the fish and ate it in front of them.
41 Then he said, `I told you this while I was with you. I told you that things were written about me in the books of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms. And I told you that all of these things must come true.'
42 Then he taught them so that they understood the things in the holy writings.
43 He said, `It is written that the Christ must have trouble. On the third day he will rise from death.
44 Men will talk in his name to people in all countries. They will tell them to stop their wrong ways and ask to be forgiven. They will begin in Jerusalem.
45 You are the men who have seen these things, and will tell people about them.
46 I will send you what the Father has promised to give you. So wait in the city of Jerusalem until you have been given power from God.'
47 Jesus led the disciples out as far as the town of Bethany. He put up his hands and blessed them.
48 While he was blessing them, he left them. He was taken up into heaven.
49 They bowed down and worshipped him. They were very happy and went back to Jerusalem.
50 Every day they were in the temple praising God.
Lucas 24
Reina Valera Contemporánea
La resurrección(A)
24 Pero el primer día de la semana, muy temprano, las mujeres regresaron al sepulcro. Llevaban las especias aromáticas que habían preparado. 2 Como se encontraron con que la piedra del sepulcro había sido quitada, 3 entraron; pero no hallaron el cuerpo del Señor Jesús. 4 Mientras ellas se preguntaban qué podría haber pasado, dos hombres con vestiduras resplandecientes se pararon junto a ellas. 5 Llenas de miedo, se inclinaron ocultando su rostro; pero ellos les dijeron: «¿Por qué buscan entre los muertos al que vive? 6 No está aquí. ¡Ha resucitado! Acuérdense de lo que les dijo cuando aún estaba en Galilea: 7 “Es necesario que el Hijo del Hombre sea entregado en manos de hombres pecadores, y que sea crucificado. Pero al tercer día resucitará.”»(B) 8 Ellas se acordaron de sus palabras, 9 y cuando volvieron del sepulcro les contaron todo esto a los once, y a todos los demás. 10 Las que contaron esto a los apóstoles eran María Magdalena, Juana, María la madre de Jacobo, y las otras mujeres. 11 El relato de las mujeres les pareció a los apóstoles una locura, así que no les creyeron; 12 pero Pedro se fue corriendo al sepulcro y, cuando miró hacia dentro y vio los lienzos allí dejados, volvió a su casa pasmado de lo que había sucedido.
En el camino a Emaús(C)
13 Ese mismo día, dos de ellos iban de camino a una aldea llamada Emaús, que distaba de Jerusalén sesenta estadios. 14 Iban hablando de todo lo que había sucedido, 15 y mientras hablaban y discutían entre sí, Jesús mismo se acercó y los iba acompañando. 16 Pero ellos no lo reconocieron, y es que parecían tener vendados los ojos. 17 Se veían tan tristes que Jesús les preguntó: «¿De qué tanto hablan ustedes?» 18 Uno de ellos, que se llamaba Cleofas, le respondió: «¿Eres tú el único forastero en Jerusalén que no sabe lo que ha sucedido en estos días?» 19 «¿Y qué ha sucedido?», preguntó Jesús. Y ellos le respondieron: «Lo de Jesús de Nazaret, que ante Dios y ante todo el pueblo era un profeta poderoso en hechos y en palabra. 20 Pero los principales sacerdotes y nuestros gobernantes lo entregaron para que lo condenaran a muerte, y lo crucificaron. 21 Nosotros teníamos la esperanza de que él habría de redimir a Israel. Sin embargo, ya van tres días de que todo esto pasó. 22 Aunque también nos han dejado asombrados algunas mujeres de entre nosotros, que fueron al sepulcro antes de que amaneciera. 23 Como no hallaron el cuerpo, han venido a decirnos que tuvieron una visión, en la que unos ángeles les dijeron que él vive. 24 Algunos de los nuestros fueron al sepulcro, y encontraron todo tal y como las mujeres lo dijeron, pero a él no lo vieron.» 25 Entonces Jesús les dijo: «¡Ay, insensatos! ¡Cómo es lento su corazón para creer todo lo que los profetas han dicho! 26 ¿Acaso no era necesario que el Cristo padeciera estas cosas, antes de entrar en su gloria?» 27 Y partiendo de Moisés, y siguiendo por todos los profetas, comenzó a explicarles todos los pasajes de las Escrituras que hablaban de él.
28 Cuando llegaron a la aldea adonde iban, Jesús hizo como que iba a seguir adelante, 29 pero ellos lo obligaron a quedarse. Le dijeron: «Quédate con nosotros, porque ya es tarde, y es casi de noche.» Y Jesús entró y se quedó con ellos. 30 Mientras estaba sentado a la mesa con ellos, tomó el pan y lo bendijo; luego lo partió y les dio a ellos. 31 En ese momento se les abrieron los ojos, y lo reconocieron; pero él desapareció de su vista. 32 Y se decían el uno al otro: «¿Acaso no ardía nuestro corazón mientras nos hablaba en el camino y nos explicaba las Escrituras?» 33 En ese mismo instante se levantaron y volvieron a Jerusalén. Allí encontraron reunidos a los once y a los que estaban con ellos, 34 los cuales decían: «¡En verdad el Señor ha resucitado, y se le ha aparecido a Simón!» 35 Los dos, por su parte, les contaron lo que les había sucedido en el camino, y cómo lo habían reconocido al partir el pan.
Jesús se aparece a los discípulos(D)
36 Todavía estaban ellos hablando de estas cosas, cuando Jesús se puso en medio de ellos y les dijo: «¡La paz sea con ustedes!» 37 Ellos se espantaron y se atemorizaron, pues creían estar viendo un espíritu; 38 pero Jesús les dijo: «¿Por qué se asustan? ¿Por qué dan cabida a esos pensamientos en su corazón? 39 ¡Miren mis manos y mis pies! ¡Soy yo! Tóquenme y véanme: un espíritu no tiene carne ni huesos, como pueden ver que los tengo yo.» 40 Y al decir esto, les mostró las manos y los pies. 41 Y como ellos, por el gozo y la sorpresa que tenían, no le creían, Jesús les dijo: «¿Tienen aquí algo de comer?» 42 Entonces ellos le dieron parte de un pescado asado, 43 y él lo tomó y se lo comió delante de ellos.
44 Luego les dijo: «Lo que ha pasado conmigo es lo mismo que les anuncié cuando aún estaba con ustedes: que era necesario que se cumpliera todo lo que está escrito acerca de mí en la ley de Moisés, en los profetas y en los salmos.» 45 Entonces les abrió el entendimiento para que pudieran comprender las Escrituras, 46 y les dijo: «Así está escrito, y así era necesario, que el Cristo padeciera(E) y resucitara de los muertos al tercer día,(F) 47 y que en su nombre se predicara el arrepentimiento y el perdón de pecados en todas las naciones, comenzando por Jerusalén. 48 De esto, ustedes son testigos. 49 Yo voy a enviar sobre ustedes la promesa de mi Padre;(G) pero ustedes, quédense en la ciudad de Jerusalén hasta que desde lo alto sean investidos de poder.»
La ascensión(H)
50 Luego los llevó de allí a Betania, y levantando sus manos los bendijo. 51 Pero sucedió que, mientras los bendecía, se apartó de ellos y fue llevado a las alturas del cielo.(I) 52 Ellos lo adoraron, y después volvieron muy felices a Jerusalén; 53 y siempre estaban en el templo, alabando y bendiciendo a Dios. Amén.
Luke 24
New International Version
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. 2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, 3 but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.(C) 4 While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning(D) stood beside them. 5 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? 6 He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee:(E) 7 ‘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) 8 Then they remembered his words.(H)
9 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.
