¹ثم في اول الاسبوع اول الفجر أتين الى القبر حاملات الحنوط الذي أعددنه ومعهنّ اناس.

¹But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they and some others came to the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared.

²فوجدن الحجر مدحرجا عن القبر.

²They found the stone rolled away from the tomb.

³فدخلن ولم يجدن جسد الرب يسوع.

³They entered in, and didn’t find the Lord Jesus’ body.

⁴وفيما هنّ محتارات في ذلك اذا رجلان وقفا بهنّ بثياب براقة.

⁴It happened, while they were greatly perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling clothing.

⁵واذ كنّ خائفات ومنكسات وجوههنّ الى الارض قالا لهنّ. لماذا تطلبن الحي بين الاموات.

⁵Becoming terrified, they bowed their faces down to the earth. They said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead?

⁶ليس هو ههنا لكنه قام. اذكرن كيف كلمكنّ وهو بعد في الجليل

⁶He isn’t here, but is risen. Remember what he told you when he was still in Galilee,

⁷قائلا انه ينبغي ان يسلّم ابن الانسان في ايدي اناس خطاة ويصلب وفي اليوم الثالث يقوم.

⁷saying that the Son of Man must be delivered up into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again?”

⁸فتذكرن كلامه.

⁸They remembered his words,

⁹ورجعن من القبر واخبرن الاحد عشر وجميع الباقين بهذا كله.

⁹returned from the tomb, and told all these things to the eleven, and to all the rest.

¹⁰وكانت مريم المجدلية ويونّا ومريم ام يعقوب والباقيات معهنّ اللواتي قلن هذا للرسل.

¹⁰Now they were Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Mary the mother of James. The other women with them told these things to the apostles.

¹¹فتراءى كلامهنّ لهم كالهذيان ولم يصدقوهنّ.

¹¹These words seemed to them to be nonsense, and they didn’t believe them.

¹²فقام بطرس وركض الى القبر فانحنى ونظر الاكفان موضوعة وحدها فمضى متعجبا في نفسه مما كان

¹²But Peter got up and ran to the tomb. Stooping and looking in, he saw the strips of linen lying by themselves, and he departed to his home, wondering what had happened.

¹³واذا اثنان منهم كانا منطلقين في ذلك اليوم الى قرية بعيدة عن اورشليم ستين غلوة اسمها عمواس.

¹³Behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was sixty stadia 60 stadia = about 11 kilometers or about 7 miles. from Jerusalem.

¹⁴وكانا يتكلمان بعضهما مع بعض عن جميع هذه الحوادث.

¹⁴They talked with each other about all of these things which had happened.

¹⁵وفيما هما يتكلمان ويتحاوران اقترب اليهما يسوع نفسه وكان يمشي معهما.

¹⁵It happened, while they talked and questioned together, that Jesus himself came near, and went with them.

¹⁶ولكن أمسكت اعينهما عن معرفته.

¹⁶But their eyes were kept from recognizing him.

¹⁷فقال لهما ما هذا الكلام الذي تتطارحان به وانتما ماشيان عابسين.

¹⁷He said to them, “What are you talking about as you walk, and are sad?”

¹⁸فاجاب احدهما الذي اسمه كليوباس وقال له هل انت متغرب وحدك في اورشليم ولم تعلم الامور التي حدثت فيها في هذه الايام.

¹⁸One of them, named Cleopas, answered him, “Are you the only stranger in Jerusalem who doesn’t know the things which have happened there in these days?”

¹⁹فقال لهما وما هي. فقالا المختصة بيسوع الناصري الذي كان انسانا نبيا مقتدرا في الفعل والقول امام الله وجميع الشعب.

¹⁹He said to them, “What things?” They said to him, “The things concerning Jesus, the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people;

²⁰كيف اسلمه رؤساء الكهنة وحكامنا لقضاء الموت وصلبوه.

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

²¹ونحن كنا نرجو انه هو المزمع ان يفدي اسرائيل. ولكن مع هذا كله اليوم له ثلاثة ايام منذ حدث ذلك.

²¹But we were hoping that it was he who would redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things happened.

²²بل بعض النساء منا حيرننا اذ كنّ باكرا عند القبر.

²²Also, certain women of our company amazed us, having arrived early at the tomb;

²³ولما لم يجدن جسده أتين قائلات انهنّ رأين منظر ملائكة قالوا انه حيّ.

²³and when they didn’t find his body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.

²⁴ومضى قوم من الذين معنا الى القبر فوجدوا هكذا كما قالت ايضا النساء واما هو فلم يروه.

²⁴Some of us went to the tomb, and found it just like the women had said, but they didn’t see him.”

²⁵فقال لهما ايها الغبيان والبطيئا القلوب في الايمان بجميع ما تكلم به الانبياء.

²⁵He said to them, “Foolish men, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

²⁶أما كان ينبغي ان المسيح يتألم بهذا ويدخل الى مجده.

²⁶ Didn’t the Christ have to suffer these things and to enter into his glory?”

²⁷ثم ابتدأ من موسى ومن جميع الانبياء يفسر لهما الأمور المختصة به في جميع الكتب

²⁷Beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he explained to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.

²⁸ثم اقتربوا الى القرية التي كانا منطلقين اليها وهو تظاهر كانه منطلق الى مكان ابعد.

²⁸They drew near to the village, where they were going, and he acted like he would go further.

²⁹فالزماه قائلين امكث معنا لانه نحو المساء وقد مال النهار. فدخل ليمكث معهما.

²⁹They urged him, saying, “Stay with us, for it is almost evening, and the day is almost over.” He went in to stay with them.

³⁰فلما اتكأ معهما اخذ خبزا وبارك وكسّر وناولهما.

³⁰It happened, that when he had sat down at the table with them, he took the bread and gave thanks. Breaking it, he gave to them.

³¹فانفتحت اعينهما وعرفاه ثم اختفى عنهما.

³¹Their eyes were opened, and they recognized him, and he vanished out of their sight.

³²فقال بعضهما لبعض ألم يكن قلبنا ملتهبا فينا اذ كان يكلمنا في الطريق ويوضح لنا الكتب.

³²They said one to another, “Weren’t our hearts burning within us, while he spoke to us along the way, and while he opened the Scriptures to us?”

³³فقاما في تلك الساعة ورجعا الى اورشليم ووجدا الاحد عشر مجتمعين هم والذين معهم

³³They rose up that very hour, returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and those who were with them,

³⁴وهم يقولون ان الرب قام بالحقيقة وظهر لسمعان.

³⁴saying, “The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!”

³⁵واما هما فكانا يخبران بما حدث في الطريق وكيف عرفاه عند كسر الخبز

³⁵They related the things that happened along the way, and how he was recognized by them in the breaking of the bread.

³⁶وفيما هم يتكلمون بهذا وقف يسوع نفسه في وسطهم وقال لهم سلام لكم.

³⁶As they said these things, Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace be to you.”

³⁷فجزعوا وخافوا وظنوا انهم نظروا روحا.

³⁷But they were terrified and filled with fear, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.

³⁸فقال لهم ما بالكم مضطربين ولماذا تخطر افكار في قلوبكم.

³⁸He said to them, “Why are you troubled? Why do doubts arise in your hearts?

³⁹انظروا يديّ ورجليّ اني انا هو. جسوني وانظروا فان الروح ليس له لحم وعظام كما ترون لي.

³⁹ See my hands and my feet, that it is truly me. Touch me and see, for a spirit doesn’t have flesh and bones, as you see that I have.”

⁴⁰وحين قال هذا أراهم يديه ورجليه.

⁴⁰When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet.

⁴¹وبينما هم غير مصدقين من الفرح ومتعجبون قال لهم أعندكم ههنا طعام.

⁴¹While they still didn’t believe for joy, and wondered, he said to them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”

⁴²فناولوه جزءا من سمك مشوي وشيئا من شهد عسل.

⁴²They gave him a piece of a broiled fish and some honeycomb.

⁴³فأخذ وأكل قدامهم

⁴³He took them, and ate in front of them.

⁴⁴وقال لهم هذا هو الكلام الذي كلمتكم به وانا بعد معكم انه لا بد ان يتم جميع ما هو مكتوب عني في ناموس موسى والانبياء والمزامير.

⁴⁴He said to them, “This is what I told you, while I was still with you, that all things which are written in the law of Moses, the prophets, and the psalms, concerning me must be fulfilled.”

⁴⁵حينئذ فتح ذهنهم ليفهموا الكتب.

⁴⁵Then he opened their minds, that they might understand the Scriptures.

⁴⁶وقال لهم هكذا هو مكتوب وهكذا كان ينبغي ان المسيح يتألم ويقوم من الاموات في اليوم الثالث.

⁴⁶He said to them, “Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day,

⁴⁷وان يكرز باسمه بالتوبة ومغفرة الخطايا لجميع الامم مبتدأ من اورشليم.

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

⁴⁸وانتم شهود لذلك.

⁴⁸ You are witnesses of these things.

⁴⁹وها انا ارسل اليكم موعد ابي. فاقيموا في مدينة اورشليم الى ان تلبسوا قوة من الاعالي

⁴⁹ Behold, I send forth the promise of my Father on you. But wait in the city of Jerusalem until you are clothed with power from on high.”

⁵⁰واخرجهم خارجا الى بيت عنيا. ورفع يديه وباركهم.

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

⁵¹وفيما هو يباركهم انفرد عنهم وأصعد الى السماء.

⁵¹It happened, while he blessed them, that he withdrew from them, and was carried up into heaven.

⁵²فسجدوا له ورجعوا الى اورشليم بفرح عظيم.

⁵²They worshiped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

⁵³وكانوا كل حين في الهيكل يسبّحون ويباركون الله آمين

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