13 En twee van hulle was dieselfde dag op pad na 'n dorp wat agt myl van Jerusalem af was, met die naam van ÂmmaÂs.

14 En hulle was in gesprek met mekaar oor al hierdie dinge wat voorgeval het.

15 En terwyl hulle praat en mekaar ondervra, kom Jesus self nader en loop met hulle saam.

16 Maar hulle oë is weerhou, sodat hulle Hom nie kon herken nie.

17 En Hy sê vir hulle: Watter woorde is dit wat julle met mekaar loop en wissel, en waarom is julle bedroef?

18 En die een wie se naam Kl,opas was, antwoord en sê vir Hom: Is U alleen 'n vreemdeling in Jerusalem en weet U nie van die dinge wat in hierdie dae daarin gebeur het nie?

19 En Hy sê vir hulle: Watter dinge? En hulle antwoord Hom: Die dinge aangaande Jesus, die Nasar,ner, wat 'n profeet was, kragtig in werk en woord voor God en die hele volk;

20 en hoe ons owerpriesters en owerstes Hom oorgelewer het tot die doodstraf en Hom gekruisig het.

21 En ons het gehoop dat dit Hy was wat Israel sou verlos; maar nou is dit vandag, met dit alles, die derde dag vandat dit plaasgevind het.

22 Maar sommige vroue uit ons het ons ook ontstel nadat hulle vroeg by die graf was;

23 en toe hulle sy liggaam nie kry nie, het hulle gekom en gesê dat hulle ook 'n gesig gesien het van engele wat sê dat Hy lewe.

24 En sommige van die wat saam met ons was, het na die graf gegaan en dit net so gevind soos die vroue ook gesê het; maar Hom het hulle nie gesien nie.

25 En Hy sê vir hulle: o Onverstandiges, met harte wat traag is om te glo alles wat die profete gespreek het!

26 Moes die Christus nie hierdie dinge ly en in sy heerlikheid ingaan nie?

27 En Hy het begin van Moses en al die profete af en vir hulle uitgelê in al die Skrifte die dinge wat op Hom betrekking het.

28 Daarop kom hulle naby die dorp waarheen hulle op reis was, en Hy het gemaak of Hy verder wou gaan;

29 maar hulle het by Hom aangedring en gesê: Bly by ons, want dit is amper aand en die dag het gedaal; en Hy het ingegaan om by hulle te bly.

30 En toe Hy met hulle aan tafel was, neem Hy die brood en dank; en Hy breek dit en gee dit aan hulle.

31 Toe is hulle oë geopen en hulle het Hom herken, en Hy het uit hulle gesig verdwyn.

32 En hulle sê vir mekaar: Was ons hart nie brandende in ons toe Hy met ons op die pad gepraat en vir ons die Skrifte uitgelê het nie?

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?
