13 And then, two of them, on that very day, were going to a little town named Emmaus, which was about seven miles from Jerusalem.

14 And they were talking together about all those things which had taken place.

15 And while they were talking and questioning together, Jesus himself came near and went with them.

16 But their eyes were not open that they might have knowledge of him.

17 And he said to them, What are you talking about together while you go?

18 Then stopping, and looking sadly at him, one of them, named Cleopas, said to him, Are you the only man living in Jerusalem who has not had news of the things which have taken place there at this time?

19 And he said to them, What things? And they said, The things to do with Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, great in his acts and his words, before God and all the people:

20 And how the chief priests and our rulers gave him up to be put to death on the cross.

21 But we were hoping that he would be the Saviour of Israel. In addition to all this he has now let three days go by from the time when these things took place;

22 And certain women among us gave us cause for wonder, for they went early to the place where his body had been put,

23 And it was not there; then they came saying that they had seen a vision of angels who said that he was living.

24 And some of those who were with us went to the place, and saw that it was as the women had said, but him they did not see.

25 And he said, O foolish men! how slow you are to give belief to what the prophets have said.

26 Was it not necessary for the Christ to go through these things, and to come into his glory?

27 And he made clear to them all the things in the Writings, from Moses and from all the prophets, which had to do with himself.

28 And they came near the town to which they were going, and he seemed as if he was going on;

29 But they kept him back, saying, Do not go, for evening is near, the day is almost gone. And he went in with them.

30 And when he was seated with them at table, he took the bread, and said words of blessing and, making division of it, he gave it to them.

31 And then their eyes were open, and they had knowledge of him, but he went from their view.

32 And they said to one another, Were not our hearts burning in us while he was talking to us on the way, making clear to us the holy Writings?

13 And behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was threescore furlongs from Jerusalem. 14 And they communed with each other of all these things which had happened. 15 And it came to pass, while they communed and questioned together, that 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 communications are these that ye have one with another, as ye walk? And they stood still, looking sad. 18 And one of them, named Cleopas, answering said unto him, Dost thou alone sojourn in Jerusalem and not know the things which are come to pass there in these days? 19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who 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 up to be condemned to death, and crucified him. 21 But we hoped that it was he who should redeem Israel. Yea and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things came to pass. 22 Moreover certain women of our company amazed us, having been early at the tomb; 23 and when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive. 24 And certain of them that were with us went to the tomb, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not. 25 And he said unto them, O foolish men, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken! 26 Behooved it not the Christ to suffer these things, and to enter into his glory? 27 And beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he interpreted to them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. 28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they were going: and he made as though he would go further. 29 And they constrained him, saying, Abide with us; for it is toward evening, and the day is now far spent. And he went in to abide with them. 30 And it came to pass, when he had sat down with them to meat, he took the bread and blessed; and breaking it he 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, Was not our heart burning within us, while he spake to us in the way, while he opened to us the scriptures?
