But on the first day of the week, at early 1 Some dawn, they came unto the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared. 2 And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb. 3 And they entered in, and found not the body of the 2 Gr. 4 Lord Jesus. And it came to pass, while they were perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling 5 apparel and as they were affrighted, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye 2 the living among the dead? 6 3 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto 4 Some you when he was yet in Ga7 lilee, saying that the Son of man must be delivered up from the into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third 8 day rise again. And they re- 5 Some 9 membered his words, and returned 4 from the tomb, and told all these things to the eleven, and to all the rest. 10 Now they were Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James: and the other women with them told these things unto the 11 apostles. And these words appeared in their sight as idle talk; and they disbelieved 12 them. 5 But Peter arose, and ran unto the tomb; and stooping and looking in, he seeth the linen cloths by themselves; and he departed to his home, wondering at that which was come to pass. 13 And behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was threescore furlongs from 14 Jerusalem. And they communed with each other of all these things which had hap15 pened.

But their 16 eyes were holden that they should not know him. And he 17 said unto them, 7 What communications are these that ye have one with another, as ye walk? And they stood still, looking sad. And one of them, 18 named Cleopas, answering said unto him, 8 Dost thou alone sojourn in Jerusalem and not know the things which are come to pass there in these days? And he said unto them, 19 What things? And they said unto him, The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people and how the chief 20 priests and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him. But we hoped that it was he 21 which should redeem Israel. Yea and beside all this, it is now the third day since these things came to pass. More- 22 over certain women of our company amazed us, having been early at the tomb; and 23 when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive. And certain of them 24 that were with us went to the tomb, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not. And 25 he said unto them, O foolish men, and slow of heart to believe 9in all that the prophets have spoken! Behoved it not 26 the Christ to suffer these things, and to enter into his glory? And beginning from 27 Moses and from all the prophets, he interpreted to them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. And they 28 drew nigh unto the village, 1 Or, loaf ancient unto them, 3 Some ties omit ver. 40. 4 Many whither they were going: and he made as though he would 29 go further. And they con- 2 Some strained him, saying, Abide with us for it is toward evening, and the day is now far spent. And he went in to 30 abide with them. And it came to pass, when he had sat down with them to meat, he took the bread, and blessed it, and 31 brake, and gave to them. And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he va32 nished out of their sight. 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 33 us the scriptures? And they comb. rose up that very hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were 34 with them, saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath ap35 peared to Simon. And they rehearsed the things that happened in the way, and how he was known of them in the breaking of the bread. 36 And as they spake these things, he himself stood in the midst of them, 2 and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. 37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that 38 they beheld a spirit. And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and wherefore do reasonings arise in your heart? 39 See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye behold 40 me having.

JOHN. 1 IN the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the begin3 ning with God. All things were made 1by him; and without him 2 was not anything made that hath been 4 made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in the darkness; and the darkness 6 3 apprehended it not. There came a man, sent from God, 7 whose name was John. The same came for witness, that he might bear witness of the light, that all might be8 lieve through him. He was not the light, but came that he might bear witness of the 9 light. 4There was the true light, even the light which lighteth 5 every man, coming 10 into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made 1 by him, and the world knew 11 him not. He came unto his own, and they that were his 12 own received him not. as many as received him, to them gave he the right to come children of God, even to them that believe on his 13 name: which were 7 born, not of 8 blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of 14 man, but of God. And the Word became flesh, and 9 dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, glory as of 10 the only begotten from the Father), full of grace and truth. 15 John beareth witness of him, and crieth, saying, 11 This was But 1 Or, 2 Or, anything made. was not 3 That hath been made overcame. 5 Or, every 6 man as he cometh Gr. his own 7 Or, things. begotten 8 Gr. bloods. 9 Gr. ta be-10 Or, bernacled. begotten he of whom I said, He that cometh after me is become before me: for he was 12 before me. For of his fulness 16 we all received, and grace for grace. For the law was given 17 by Moses; grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. No 18 man hath seen God at any time; 13 the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. And this is the witness of 19 in regard of me. 13 Many very ancient autho- ancient authorities read John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. He findeth first his 41 own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messiah (which is, being interBethaba-preted, 6 Christ). He brought 42 rah, some, him unto Jesus. Jesus looked Betharaupon him, and said, Thou art Simon the son of 7 John: thou shalt be called Cephas (which is by interpretation, & Peter). bah standeth one whom ye know 27 not, even he that cometh after me, the latchet of whose shoe I am not worthy to un-1 Many 28 loose. These things were done in 1 Bethany beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing. 29 On the morrow he seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold, the Lamb of God, which 2 taketh away the sin 30 of the world! This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is become before me: for he was 3 before me. 31 And I knew him not; but that he should be made manifest to Israel, for this cause came I baptizing 4 with water. 32 And John bare witness, saying, I have beheld the Spirit descending as a dove out of heaven; and it abode upon 33 him. And I knew him not: 2 Or, beareth the sin 3 Gr. first in regard of me. I have seen, and have borne witness that this is the Son of God. 5 Or, Teucher 6 That is, Anointed. Joanes: called in Matt. xvi. 17, Jonah. 35 Again on the morrow John was standing, and two of his 36 disciples; and he looked upon Jesus as he walked, and saith, Behold, the Lamb of God! 37 And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed 7 Gr. 38 Jesus. And Jesus turned, and beheld them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? And they said unto him, Rabbi (which is to say, being interpreted, 5 Master), where 39 abidest thou? He saith unto them, Come, and ye shall see. They came therefore and saw where he abode; and they abode with him that day: it was about the tenth hour. 40 One of the two that heard 8 That is, Rock or Stone. 8 On the morrow he was mind- 43 ed to go forth into Galilee, and he findeth Philip: and Jesus saith unto him, Follow me. Now Philip was from Beth- 44 saida, of the city of Andrew and Peter. Philip findeth Na- 45 thanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph. And 46 Nathanael said unto him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see. Jesus saw 47 Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! Nathanael saith unto 48 him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee. Na- 49 thanael answered him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art King of Israel. Jesus an- 50 swered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee underneath the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these. And he saith unto him, 51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye shall see the heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man. And the third day there was 2 a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was 2 there: and Jesus also was bidden, and his disciples, to the 3 marriage. And when the wine failed, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no 4 wine. And Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is 5 not yet come. His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do 6 it. Now there were six waterpots of stone set there after the Jews' manner of purifying, containing two or three 7 firkins apiece. Jesus saith unto 1 Or, steward 2 Or, that it had become tuary them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them 8 up to the brim. And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the 1 ruler of the feast. And they bare it. 9 And when the ruler of the feast tasted the water 2 now become wine, and knew not whence it was (but the ser- 3 Or, sancvants which had drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast calleth the bridegroom, 10 and saith unto him, Every man setteth on first the good wine; and when men have drunk freely, then that which is worse thou hast kept the 11 good wine until now. This beginning of his signs did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed on him. 12 After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: and there they abode not many days. 13 And the passover of the 4 Or, a man; for ... the man he poured out the changers' money, and overthrew their tables; and to them that sold 16 the doves he said, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house a house of merchandise. His disciples re- 17 membered that it was written, The zeal of thine house shall eat me up. The Jews therefore 18 answered and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things? Jesus answered 19 and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. The Jews 20 therefore said, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou raise it up in three days? But he spake 21 of the temple of his body. When therefore he was raised 22 from the dead, his disciples remembered that he spake this; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said. Now when he was in Jeru- 23 salem at the passover, during the feast, many believed on his name, beholding his signs which he did. But Jesus did 24 not trust himself unto them, for that he knew all men, and 25 because he needed not that any one should bear witness concerning 4 man; for he himself knew what was in man. Now there was a man of the 3 Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: the same 2 came unto him by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come Jews was at hand, and Jesus 5 Or, from from God: for no man can 14 went up to Jerusalem. And he found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of 15 money sitting: and he made a scourge of cords, and cast all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and above do these signs that thou doest, except God be with him. Je- 3 sus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born 5 anew, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith 4 unto him, How can a man be |
