Luke 24:23-29 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

23. but they did not find his body there. They came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels. The angels said that Jesus was alive!

24. So some of our group went to the tomb, too. They found it just as the women said, but they did not see Jesus.”

25. Then Jesus said to them, “You are foolish and slow to realize what is true. You should believe everything the prophets said.

26. They said that the Christ must suffer these things before he enters his glory.”

27. Then Jesus began to explain everything that had been written about himself in the Scriptures. He started with Moses, and then he talked about what all the prophets had said about him.

28. They came near the town of Emmaus, and Jesus acted as if he did not plan to stop there.

29. But they begged him, “Stay with us. It is late; it is almost night.” So he went in to stay with them.
