14But Peter standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and spoke to them: You men of Judea, and all you that dwell in Jerusalem, be this known to you, and with your ears receive my words.

22You men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you, by signs, and wonders, and signs, which God did by him, in the midst of you, as you also know:

23This same being rescued up, by the determinate guidance and foreknowledge of God, you by the hands of evil men have crucified and killed.

24Whom God has raised up, having loosed the sorrows of hell, as it was impossible that he should be holden by it.

25For David says concerning him: I foresaw the Lord before my face: because he is at my right hand, that I may not be moved.

26For this my heart has been glad, and any tongue has rejoiced: moreover my flesh also shall rest in hope.

27Because you will not leave my soul in hell, nor suffer your Holy One to see corruption.

28You have made known to me the ways of life: you shall make me full of joy with your face.

29You men, brothers and sisters, let me freely speak to you of the patriarch David; that he died, and was buried; and his tomb is with us to this present day.

30Whereas therefore he was a prophet, and knew that God has sworn to him with an oath, that of the fruit of his loins one should sit upon his throne.

31Foreseeing this, he spoke of the resurrection of Christ. For neither was he left in hell, neither did his flesh see corruption.

32This Jesus has God raised again, of which all we are people giving testimony.

33Being exalted therefore by the right hand of God, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he has poured forth this which you see and hear.

1The inscription of a title to David himself. Preserve me, OH Lord, for I have put trust in you.

2I have said to the Lord, you art my God, for you have no need of my goods.

5The Lord is the share of my gift and of my cup: it is you that will restore my gift to me.

7I will bless the Lord, who has given me understanding: moreover my reins also have corrected me even till night.

8I set the Lord always in my sight: for he is at my right hand, that I be not moved.

9Therefore my heart has been glad, and my tongue has rejoiced: moreover my flesh also shall rest in hope.

10Because you will not leave my soul in hell; nor will then give your holy one to see corruption.

11You have made known to me the ways of life, you shall fill me with joy with your face: at your right hand are delights even to the end.

17And if you invoke as Father him who, without respect of persons, judgeth according to every one's work: converse in fear during the time of your sojourning here.

18Knowing that you were not rescued with corruptible things as gold or silver, from your vain conversation of the teaching of your fathers:

19But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb unspotted and undefiled,

20Foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but shown in the last times for you,

21Who through him are faithful in God, who raised him up from the dead, and has given him glory, that your faith and hope might be in God.

13And look, two of them went, the same day, to a town which was sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, named Emmaus.

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

15And it happened, that while they talked and reasoned with themselves, Jesus himself also drawing near, went with them.

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

17And he said to them: What are these discourses that you hold one with another as you walk, and are sad?

18And the one of them, whose name was Cleophas, answering, said to him: Art you only a stranger to Jerusalem, and have not known the things that have been done there in these days?

19To whom he said: What things? And they said: Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, mighty in work and word before God and all the people;

20And how our chief priests and leaders rescued him to be condemned to death, and crucified him.

21But we hoped, that it was he that should have rescued Israel: and now besides all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.

22Yea and certain women also of our company affrighted us, who before it was light, were at the tomb,

23And not finding his body, came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, who say that he is alive.

24And some of our people went to the tomb, and found it so as the women had said, but him they found not.

25Then he said to them: OH foolish, and slow of heart to believe in all things which the prophets have said.

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

27And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded to them in all the scriptures, the things that were concerning him.

28And they drew night to the town, whither they were going: and he made as though he would go farther.

29But they constrained him; saying: Stay with us, because it is towards evening, and the day is now far spent. And he went in with them.

30And it happened, whilst he was at table with them, he took bread, and blessed, and brake, and gave to them.

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

32And they said one to the other: Was not our heart burning within us, whilst he spoke in this way, and opened to us the scriptures?

33And rising up, the same hour, they went back to Jerusalem: and they found the eleven gathered together, and those that were staying with them,

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

35And they told what things were done in the way; and how they knew him in the breaking of the bread.
