And they sod still, lookg sad. 18 Then one of them, nad Cleopas, answered Him, Are You the only visir Jerusalem who does not know the thgs that have happened there these days? 19 And said them, What thgs? And they said Him, Concerng Jesus of Nazareth, a man who was a prophet mighty deed word before God all the people, 20 how our chief priests rulers delivered Him up be condemned death, crucified Him. 21 But we had hoped that was the one redeem Israel.

They were at the mb early the morng, 23 when they did not fd His body, they ca back sayg that they had even seen a vision of angels, who said that was alive. 24 So of those who were with us went the mb found it ust as the won had said, but Him they did not see. 25 And said them, O foolish ones, slow of heart believe all that the prophets have spoken! 26 Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these thgs enter His glory? 27 And begng with Moses all the Prophets, terpreted them all the Scriptures the thgs concerng Himself. 28 So they drew near the village which they were gog. acted as if were gog farther, 29 but they urged Him strongly, sayg, Stay with us, for it is ward eveng the day is now far spent. So went stay with them. 30 When was at table with them, ok the bread blessed broke it gave it them. 31 And their eyes were opened, they recognized Him.
