¹Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.

¹Jumapili, alfajiri na mapema, wale wanawake walikwenda kaburini wakichukua yale manukato waliyotayarisha.

²And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.

²Walikuta lile jiwe limeviringishwa mbali na kaburi.

³And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

³Walipoingia ndani, hawakuona mwili wa Bwana Yesu.

⁴And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:

⁴Walipokuwa bado wanashangaa juu ya jambo hilo, mara watu wawili waliovaa mavazi yenye kung'aa sana, wakasimama karibu nao.

⁵And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?

⁵Hao wanawake wakaingiwa na hofu, wakainama chini. Ndipo wale watu wakawaambia, "Kwa nini mnamtafuta aliye hai kati ya wafu?

⁶He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,

⁶Hayuko hapa; amefufuka. Kumbukeni aliyowaambieni alipokuwa kule Galilaya:

⁷Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

⁷Ni lazima Mwana wa Mtu atolewe kwa watu waovu, nao watamsulubisha, na siku ya tatu atafufuka."

⁸And they remembered his words,

⁸Hapo wanawake wakayakumbuka maneno yake,

⁹And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.

⁹wakarudi kutoka kaburini, wakawapa mitume wale kumi na mmoja na wengine habari za mambo hayo yote.

¹⁰It was Mary Magdalene and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles.

¹⁰Hao waliotoa habari hizo kwa mitume ni: Maria Magdalene, Yoana na Maria mama wa Yakobo, pamoja na wanawake wengine walioandamana nao.

¹¹And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.

¹¹Mitume waliyachukua maneno hayo kama yasiyo na msingi, hivyo hawakuamini.

¹²Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.

¹²Lakini Petro alitoka, akaenda mbio hadi kaburini. Alipoinama kuchungulia ndani, akaiona tu ile sanda. Akarudi nyumbani huku akiwa anashangaa juu ya hayo yaliyotokea.

¹³And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.

¹³Siku hiyohiyo, wawili kati ya wafuasi wake Yesu wakawa wanakwenda katika kijiji kimoja kiitwacho Emau, umbali wa kilomita kumi na moja kutoka Yerusalemu.

¹⁴And they talked together of all these things which had happened.

¹⁴Wakawa wanazungumza juu ya hayo yote yaliyotukia.

¹⁵And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.

¹⁵Walipokuwa wakizungumza na kujadiliana, Yesu mwenyewe akatokea, akatembea pamoja nao.

¹⁶But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.

¹⁶Walimwona kwa macho, lakini hawakumtambua.

¹⁷And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?

¹⁷Akawauliza, "Mnazungumza nini huku mnatembea?" Nao wakasimama kimya, nyuso zao wamezikunja kwa huzuni.

¹⁸And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?

¹⁸Mmoja, aitwaye Kleopa, akamjibu, "Je, wewe ni mgeni peke yako Yerusalemu ambaye hujui yaliyotukia huko siku hizi?"

¹⁹And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:

¹⁹Naye akawajibu, "Mambo gani?" Wao wakamjibu, "Mambo yaliyompata Yesu wa Nazareti. Yeye alikuwa nabii mwenye uwezo wa kutenda na kufundisha mbele ya Mungu na mbele ya watu wote.

²⁰And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.

²⁰Makuhani na watawala wetu walimtoa ahukumiwe kufa, wakamsulubisha.

²¹But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.

²¹Lakini sisi tulitumaini kwamba yeye ndiye angeikomboa Israeli. Zaidi ya hayo yote, leo ni siku ya tatu tangu mambo hayo yalipotendeka.

²²Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;

²²Tena, wanawake wengine wa kwetu wametushtua. Walikwenda kaburini mapema asubuhi,

²³And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.

²³wasiukute mwili wake. Wakarudi wakasema kwamba walitokewa na malaika waliowaambia kwamba alikuwa hai.

²⁴And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.

²⁴Wengine wetu walikwenda kaburini wakashuhudia yale waliyosema hao wanawake; ila yeye hawakumwona."

²⁵Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:

²⁵Kisha Yesu akawaambia, "Mbona mu wapumbavu kiasi hicho na mioyo yenu ni mizito hivyo kusadiki yote yaliyonenwa na manabii?

²⁶Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?

²⁶Je, haikumpasa Kristo kuteswa, na hivyo aingie katika utukufu wake?"

²⁷And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

²⁷Akawafafanulia mambo yote yaliyomhusu yeye katika Maandiko Matakatifu kuanzia Mose hadi manabii wote.

²⁸And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.

²⁸Walipokikaribia kile kijiji walikokuwa wanakwenda, Yesu akafanya kana kwamba anaendelea na safari;

²⁹But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.

²⁹lakini wao wakamsihi wakisema, "Kaa pamoja nasi, maana kunakuchwa, na usiku unakaribia." Basi, akaingia kijijini, akakaa pamoja nao.

³⁰And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.

³⁰Alipoketi kula chakula pamoja nao, akachukua mkate, akaubariki, akaumega, akawapa.

³¹And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

³¹Mara macho yao yakafumbuliwa, wakamtambua; lakini yeye akatoweka kati yao.

³²And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?

³²Basi, wakaambiana, "Je, mioyo yetu haikuwa inawaka ndani yetu wakati alipokuwa anatufafanulia Maandiko Matakatifu kule njiani?"

³³And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,

³³Wakaondoka saa ileile, wakarudi Yerusalemu: wakawakuta wale mitume kumi na mmoja na wale wengine waliokuwa pamoja nao, wamekusanyika

³⁴Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.

³⁴wakisema, "Hakika Bwana amefufuka, amemtokea Simoni."

³⁵And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.

³⁵Basi, hao wafuasi wawili wakawajulisha yale yaliyowapata njiani, na jinsi walivyomtambua katika kumega mkate.

³⁶And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

³⁶Wanafunzi wote wawili walipokuwa wakiwaambia hayo, Yesu mwenyewe akasimama kati yao, akawaambia "Amani kwenu."

³⁷But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.

³⁷Wakashtuka na kushikwa na hofu wakidhani wameona mzimu.

³⁸And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?

³⁸Lakini yeye akawaambia, "Kwa nini mnafadhaika? Mbona mnakuwa na mashaka mioyoni mwenu?

³⁹Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

³⁹Angalieni mikono na miguu yangu, ya kwamba ni mimi mwenyewe. Nipapaseni mkanione, maana mzimu hauna mwili na mifupa kama mnionavyo."

⁴⁰And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet.

⁴⁰Baada ya kusema hayo, akawaonyesha mikono na miguu.

⁴¹And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?

⁴¹Wakiwa bado katika hali ya kutosadiki kwa sababu ya furaha yao, na wakiwa wanastaajabu, akawauliza, "Mnacho chakula chochote hapa?"

⁴²And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.

⁴²Wakampa kipande cha samaki wa kuokwa.

⁴³And he took it, and did eat before them.

⁴³Akakichukua, akala, wote wakimwona.

⁴⁴And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.

⁴⁴Halafu akawaambia, "Hii ndiyo maana ya maneno niliyowaambia nilipokuwa pamoja nanyi: kwamba ilikuwa lazima kukamilisha yote yaliyoandikwa juu yangu katika Sheria ya Mose na katika vitabu vya manabii na katika kitabu cha Zaburi."

⁴⁵Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,

⁴⁵Kisha, akaziangazia akili zao ili wapate kuelewa Maandiko Matakatifu.

⁴⁶And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:

⁴⁶Akawaambia, "Ndivyo ilivyoandikwa, kwamba Kristo atateswa na siku ya tatu atafufuka kutoka wafu,

⁴⁷And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

⁴⁷na kwamba ni lazima, kwa jina lake, mataifa yote kuanzia na Yerusalemu yahubiriwe juu ya kutubu na kusamehewa dhambi.

⁴⁸And ye are witnesses of these things.

⁴⁸Ninyi ni mashahidi wa mambo hayo.

⁴⁹And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.

⁴⁹Nami mwenyewe nitawapelekeeni yule ambaye Baba aliahidi kumtuma, lakini ngojeni huku mjini mpaka mtakapopewa ile nguvu itokayo juu."

⁵⁰And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.

⁵⁰Kisha akawaongoza nje ya mji hadi Bethania, akainua mikono yake juu, akawabariki.

⁵¹And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.

⁵¹Alipokuwa anawabariki, akawaacha; akachukuliwa mbinguni.

⁵²And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:

⁵²Wao wakamwabudu, wakarudi Yerusalemu wakiwa na furaha kubwa:

⁵³And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.

⁵³wakakaa muda wote Hekaluni wakimsifu Mungu.
