¹ At the first God made the heaven and the earth. ² And the earth was waste and without form; and it was dark on the face of the deep: and the Spirit of God was moving on the face of the waters. ³ And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. ⁴ And God, looking on the light, saw that it was good: and God made a division between the light and the dark, ⁵ Naming the light, Day, and the dark, Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day. ⁶ And God said, Let there be a solid arch stretching over the waters, parting the waters from the waters. ⁷ And God made the arch for a division between the waters which were under the arch and those which were over it: and it was so. ⁸ And God gave the arch the name of Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, the second day. ⁹ And God said, Let the waters under the heaven come together in one place, and let the dry land be seen: and it was so. ¹⁰ And God gave the dry land the name of Earth; and the waters together in their place were named Seas: and God saw that it was good. ¹¹ And God said, Let grass come up on the earth, and plants producing seed, and fruit-trees giving fruit, in which is their seed, after their sort: and it was so. ¹² And grass came up on the earth, and every plant producing seed of its sort, and every tree producing fruit, in which is its seed, of its sort: and God saw that it was good. ¹³ And there was evening and there was morning, the third day. ¹⁴ And God said, Let there be lights in the arch of heaven, for a division between the day and the night, and let them be for signs, and for marking the changes of the year, and for days and for years: ¹⁵ And let them be for lights in the arch of heaven to give light on the earth: and it was so. ¹⁶ And God made the two great lights: the greater light to be the ruler of the day, and the smaller light to be the ruler of the night: and he made the stars. ¹⁷ And God put them in the arch of heaven, to give light on the earth; ¹⁸ To have rule over the day and the night, and for a division between the light and the dark: and God saw that it was good. ¹⁹ And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day. ²⁰ And God said, Let the waters be full of living things, and let birds be in flight over the earth under the arch of heaven. ²¹ And God made great sea-beasts, and every sort of living and moving thing with which the waters were full, and every sort of winged bird: and God saw that it was good. ²² And God gave them his blessing, saying, Be fertile and have increase, making all the waters of the seas full, and let the birds be increased in the earth. ²³ And there was evening and there was morning, the fifth day. ²⁴ And God said, Let the earth give birth to all sorts of living things, cattle and all things moving on the earth, and beasts of the earth after their sort: and it was so. ²⁵ And God made the beast of the earth after its sort, and the cattle after their sort, and everything moving on the face of the earth after its sort: and God saw that it was good. ²⁶ And God said, Let us make man in our image, like us: and let him have rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over the cattle and over all the earth and over every living thing which goes flat on the earth. ²⁷ And God made man in his image, in the image of God he made him: male and female he made them. ²⁸ And God gave them his blessing and said to them, Be fertile and have increase, and make the earth full and be masters of it; be rulers over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing moving on the earth. ²⁹ And God said, See, I have given you every plant producing seed, on the face of all the earth, and every tree which has fruit producing seed: they will be for your food: ³⁰ And to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the air and every living thing moving on the face of the earth I have given every green plant for food: and it was so. ³¹ And God saw everything which he had made and it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.

⁸ Keep in memory the Sabbath and let it be a holy day. ⁹ On six days do all your work: ¹⁰ But the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God; on that day you are to do no work, you or your son or your daughter, your man-servant or your woman-servant, your cattle or the man from a strange country who is living among you: ¹¹ For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and the sea, and everything in them, and he took his rest on the seventh day: for this reason the Lord has given his blessing to the seventh day and made it holy.

⁷ And on the first day of the week, when we had come together for the holy meal, Paul gave them a talk, for it was his purpose to go away on the day after; and he went on talking till after the middle of the night.

¹ But on the first day of the week, at dawn, they came to the place where his body had been put, taking the spices which they had got ready. ² And they saw that the stone had been rolled away. ³ And they went in, but the body of the Lord Jesus was not there. ⁴ And while they were in doubt about it, they saw two men in shining clothing by them: ⁵ And while their faces were bent down to the earth in fear, these said to them, Why are you looking for the living among the dead? ⁶ He is not here, he has come back to life: have in mind what he said to you when he was still in Galilee, saying, ⁷ The Son of man will be given up into the hands of evil-doers, and be put to death on the cross, and on the third day he will come back to life. ⁸ And his words came back into their minds, ⁹ And they went away from that place and gave an account of all these things to the eleven disciples and all the others. ¹⁰ Now they were Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary, the mother of James: and the other women with them said these things to the Apostles. ¹¹ But these words seemed foolish to them, and they had no belief in them. ¹² But Peter got up and went to the place where the body had been put, and looking in he saw nothing but the linen cloths, and he went to his house full of wonder at what had taken place. ¹³ And then, two of them, on that very day, were going to a little town named Emmaus, which was about seven miles from Jerusalem. ¹⁴ And they were talking together about all those things which had taken place. ¹⁵ And while they were talking and questioning together, Jesus himself came near and went with them. ¹⁶ But their eyes were not open that they might have knowledge of him. ¹⁷ And he said to them, What are you talking about together while you go? ¹⁸ Then stopping, and looking sadly at him, one of them, named Cleopas, said to him, Are you the only man living in Jerusalem who has not had news of the things which have taken place there at this time? ¹⁹ And he said to them, What things? And they said, The things to do with Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, great in his acts and his words, before God and all the people: ²⁰ And how the chief priests and our rulers gave him up to be put to death on the cross. ²¹ But we were hoping that he would be the Saviour of Israel. In addition to all this he has now let three days go by from the time when these things took place; ²² And certain women among us gave us cause for wonder, for they went early to the place where his body had been put, ²³ And it was not there; then they came saying that they had seen a vision of angels who said that he was living. ²⁴ And some of those who were with us went to the place, and saw that it was as the women had said, but him they did not see. ²⁵ And he said, O foolish men! how slow you are to give belief to what the prophets have said. ²⁶ Was it not necessary for the Christ to go through these things, and to come into his glory? ²⁷ And he made clear to them all the things in the Writings, from Moses and from all the prophets, which had to do with himself. ²⁸ And they came near the town to which they were going, and he seemed as if he was going on; ²⁹ But they kept him back, saying, Do not go, for evening is near, the day is almost gone. And he went in with them. ³⁰ And when he was seated with them at table, he took the bread, and said words of blessing and, making division of it, he gave it to them. ³¹ And then their eyes were open, and they had knowledge of him, but he went from their view. ³² And they said to one another, Were not our hearts burning in us while he was talking to us on the way, making clear to us the holy Writings? ³³ And that very hour they got up and went back to Jerusalem, where the eleven and the others had come together. ³⁴ And they said to them, The Lord has truly come back to life again, and Simon has seen him. ³⁵ And they gave an account of the things which had taken place on the way, and how, when he gave them bread, they had knowledge of him. ³⁶ And while they were saying these things, he himself was among them, and said to them, Peace be with you! ³⁷ But they were full of fear, being of the opinion that they were seeing a spirit. ³⁸ And he said to them, Why are you troubled, and why are your hearts full of doubt? ³⁹ See; my hands and my feet: it is I myself; put your hands on me and make certain; for a spirit has not flesh and bones as you see that I have. ⁴⁰ And when he had said this, he let them see his hands and his feet. ⁴¹ And because, for joy and wonder, they were still in doubt, he said to them, Have you any food here? ⁴² And they gave him a bit of cooked fish. ⁴³ And before their eyes he took a meal. ⁴⁴ And he said to them, These are the words which I said to you when I was still with you, how it was necessary for all the things which are in the writings of Moses and the prophets and in the Psalms about me, to be put into effect. ⁴⁵ Then he made the holy Writings clear to their minds. ⁴⁶ And he said to them, So it is in the Writings that the Christ would undergo death, and come back to life again on the third day; ⁴⁷ And that teaching about a change of heart and forgiveness of sins is to be given to Jerusalem first and to all nations in his name. ⁴⁸ You are witnesses of these things. ⁴⁹ And now I will send to you what my father has undertaken to give you, but do not go from the town, till the power from heaven comes to you. ⁵⁰ And he took them out till they were near Bethany, and lifting up his hands, he gave them a blessing. ⁵¹ And while he was doing so, he went from them and was taken up into heaven. ⁵² And they gave him worship and went back to Jerusalem with great joy. ⁵³ And they were in the Temple at all times, giving praise to God.

¹ Now on the first day of the week, very early, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the place and saw that the stone had been taken away from it. ² Then she went running to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple who was loved by Jesus, and said to them, They have taken away the Lord out of the place of the dead and we have no knowledge where they have put him. ³ So Peter and the other disciple went out to the place of the dead. ⁴ They went running together, and the other disciple got in front of Peter and came first to the hole in the rock; ⁵ And looking in, he saw the linen bands on the earth; but he did not go in, ⁶ Then Simon Peter came after him and went into the hole in the rock; and he saw the linen bands on the earth, ⁷ And the cloth, which had been round his head, not with the linen bands but rolled up in a place by itself. ⁸ Then the other disciple who came there first went in; and he saw and belief came to him. ⁹ For at that time they had no knowledge that the Writings said that he would have to come again from the dead. ¹⁰ So then the disciples went away again to their houses. ¹¹ But Mary was still there outside the hole in the rock, weeping; and while she was weeping and looking into the hole, ¹² She saw two angels in white seated where the body of Jesus had been, one at the head and the other at the feet. ¹³ They said to her, Woman, why are you weeping? She said to them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I have no knowledge where they have put him. ¹⁴ And then looking round, she saw Jesus there, but had no idea that it was Jesus. ¹⁵ Jesus said to her, Woman, why are you weeping? who are you looking for? She, taking him for the gardener, said to him, Sir, if you have taken him away from here, say where you have put him and I will take him away. ¹⁶ Jesus said to her, Mary! Turning, she said to him in Hebrew, Rabboni! which is to say, Master. ¹⁷ Jesus said to her, Do not put your hand on me, for I have not gone up to the Father: but go to my brothers and say to them, I go up to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God. ¹⁸ Mary Magdalene went with the news to the disciples, and said she had seen the Lord and that he had said these things to her. ¹⁹ At evening on that day, the first day of the week, when, for fear of the Jews, the doors were shut where the disciples were, Jesus came among them and said to them, May peace be with you! ²⁰ And when he had said this, he let them see his hands and his side. Then the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord. ²¹ And Jesus said to them again, May peace be with you! As the Father sent me, even so I now send you. ²² And when he had said this, breathing on them, he said to them, Let the Holy Spirit come on you: ²³ Any to whom you give forgiveness, will be made free from their sins; and any from whom you keep back forgiveness, will still be in their sins. ²⁴ Now Thomas, one of the twelve, named Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came. ²⁵ So the other disciples said to him, We have seen the Lord. But he said to them, If I do not see in his hands the print of the nails and put my finger into the print of the nails, and if I do not put my hand into his side, I will never have belief. ²⁶ And after eight days, his disciples were again in the house and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were shut, Jesus came, and taking his place in the middle of them, he said, May peace be with you! ²⁷ Then he said to Thomas, Put out your finger, and see my hands; and put your hand here into my side: and be no longer in doubt but have belief. ²⁸ And Thomas said in answer, My Lord and my God! ²⁹ Jesus said to him, Because you have seen me you have belief: a blessing will be on those who have belief though they have not seen me! ³⁰ A number of other signs Jesus did before his disciples which are not recorded in this book: ³¹ But these are recorded, so that you may have faith that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and so that, having this faith you may have life in his name.

¹⁶ And on the first day there is to be a holy meeting and on the seventh day a holy meeting; no sort of work may be done on those days but only to make ready what is necessary for everyone's food.

² On the first day of the week, let every one of you put by him in store, in measure as he has done well in business, so that it may not be necessary to get money together when I come.
