1 ثُمَّ فِي أَوَّلِ ٱلْأُسْبُوعِ، أَوَّلَ ٱلْفَجْرِ، أَتَيْنَ إِلَى ٱلْقَبْرِ حَامِلَاتٍ ٱلْحَنُوطَ ٱلَّذِي أَعْدَدْنَهُ، وَمَعَهُنَّ أُنَاسٌ.
1 Τῇ δὲ μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων ὄρθρου βαθέος ἦλθον ἐπὶ τὸ μνῆμα φέρουσαι ἃ ἡτοίμασαν ἀρώματα, καί τινες σὺν αὐταῖς.
2 فَوَجَدْنَ ٱلْحَجَرَ مُدَحْرَجًا عَنِ ٱلْقَبْرِ،
2 εὗρον δὲ τὸν λίθον ἀποκεκυλισμένον ἀπὸ τοῦ μνημείου,
3 فَدَخَلْنَ وَلَمْ يَجِدْنَ جَسَدَ ٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ.
3 καὶ εἰσελθοῦσαι οὐχ εὗρον τὸ σῶμα τοῦ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ.
4 وَفِيمَا هُنَّ مُحْتَارَاتٌ فِي ذَلِكَ، إِذَا رَجُلَانِ وَقَفَا بِهِنَّ بِثِيَابٍ بَرَّاقَةٍ.
4 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ διαπορεῖσθαι αὐτὰς περὶ τούτου καὶ ἰδοὺ ἄνδρες δύο ἐπέστησαν αὐταῖς ἐν ἐσθήσεσιν ἀστραπτούσαις.
5 وَإِذْ كُنَّ خَائِفَاتٍ وَمُنَكِّسَاتٍ وُجُوهَهُنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، قَالَا لَهُنَّ: «لِمَاذَا تَطْلُبْنَ ٱلْحَيَّ بَيْنَ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ؟
5 ἐμφόβων δὲ γενομένων αὐτῶν καὶ κλινουσῶν τὸ πρόσωπον εἰς τὴν γῆν εἶπον πρὸς αὐτάς· τί ζητεῖτε τὸν ζῶντα μετὰ τῶν νεκρῶν;
6 لَيْسَ هُوَ هَهُنَا، لَكِنَّهُ قَامَ! اُذْكُرْنَ كَيْفَ كَلَّمَكُنَّ وَهُوَ بَعْدُ فِي ٱلْجَلِيلِ
6 οὐκ ἔστιν ὧδε, ἀλλ᾽ ἠγέρθη· μνήσθητε ὡς ἐλάλησεν ὑμῖν ἔτι ὢν ἐν τῇ Γαλιλαίᾳ,
7 قَائِلًا: إِنَّهُ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يُسَلَّمَ ٱبْنُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ فِي أَيْدِي أُنَاسٍ خُطَاةٍ، وَيُصْلَبَ، وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّالِثِ يَقُومُ».
7 λέγων ὅτι δεῖ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου παραδοθῆναι εἰς χεῖρας ἀνθρώπων ἁμαρτωλῶν καὶ σταυρωθῆναι, καὶ τῇ τρίτῃ ἡμέρᾳ ἀναστῆναι.
8 فَتَذَكَّرْنَ كَلَامَهُ،
8 καὶ ἐμνήσθησαν τῶν ῥημάτων αὐτοῦ,
9 وَرَجَعْنَ مِنَ ٱلْقَبْرِ، وَأَخْبَرْنَ ٱلْأَحَدَ عَشَرَ وَجَمِيعَ ٱلْبَاقِينَ بِهَذَا كُلِّهِ.
9 καὶ ὑποστρέψασαι ἀπὸ τοῦ μνημείου ἀπήγγειλαν ταῦτα πάντα τοῖς ἕνδεκα καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς λοιποῖς.
10 وَكَانَتْ مَرْيَمُ ٱلْمَجْدَلِيَّةُ وَيُوَنَّا وَمَرْيَمُ أُمُّ يَعْقُوبَ وَٱلْبَاقِيَاتُ مَعَهُنَّ، ٱللَّوَاتِي قُلْنَ هَذَا لِلرُّسُلِ.
10 ἦσαν δὲ ἡ Μαγδαληνὴ Μαρία καὶ Ἰωάννα καὶ Μαρία Ἰακώβου καὶ αἱ λοιπαὶ σὺν αὐταῖς, αἳ ἔλεγον πρὸς τοὺς ἀποστόλους ταῦτα.
11 فَتَرَاءَى كَلَامُهُنَّ لَهُمْ كَٱلْهَذَيَانِ وَلَمْ يُصَدِّقُوهُنَّ.
11 καὶ ἐφάνησαν ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν ὡσεὶ λῆρος τὰ ῥήματα αὐτῶν, καὶ ἠπίστουν αὐταῖς.
12 فَقَامَ بُطْرُسُ وَرَكَضَ إِلَى ٱلْقَبْرِ، فَٱنْحَنَى وَنَظَرَ ٱلْأَكْفَانَ مَوْضُوعَةً وَحْدَهَا، فَمَضَى مُتَعَجِّبًا فِي نَفْسِهِ مِمَّا كَانَ.
12 ὁ δὲ Πέτρος ἀναστὰς ἔδραμεν ἐπὶ τὸ μνημεῖον, καὶ παρακύψας βλέπει τὰ ὀθόνια κείμενα μόνα, καὶ ἀπῆλθε πρὸς ἑαυτόν, θαυμάζων τὸ γεγονός.
13 وَإِذَا ٱثْنَانِ مِنْهُمْ كَانَا مُنْطَلِقَيْنِ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ إِلَى قَرْيَةٍ بَعِيدَةٍ عَنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ سِتِّينَ غَلْوَةً، ٱسْمُهَا «عِمْوَاسُ».
13 Καὶ ἰδοὺ δύο ἐξ αὐτῶν ἦσαν πορευόμενοι ἐν αὐτῇ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ εἰς κώμην ἀπέχουσαν σταδίους ἑξήκοντα ἀπὸ Ἱερουσαλήμ, ᾗ ὄνομα Ἐμμαούς.
14 وَكَانَا يَتَكَلَّمَانِ بَعْضُهُمَا مَعَ بَعْضٍ عَنْ جَمِيعِ هَذِهِ ٱلْحَوَادِثِ.
14 καὶ αὐτοὶ ὡμίλουν πρὸς ἀλλήλους περὶ πάντων τῶν συμβεβηκότων τούτων.
15 وَفِيمَا هُمَا يَتَكَلَّمَانِ وَيَتَحَاوَرَانِ، ٱقْتَرَبَ إِلَيْهِمَا يَسُوعُ نَفْسُهُ وَكَانَ يَمْشِي مَعَهُمَا.
15 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ὁμιλεῖν αὐτοὺς καὶ συζητεῖν καὶ αὐτὸς ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἐγγίσας συνεπορεύετο αὐτοῖς·
16 وَلَكِنْ أُمْسِكَتْ أَعْيُنُهُمَا عَنْ مَعْرِفَتِهِ.
16 οἱ δὲ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτῶν ἐκρατοῦντο τοῦ μὴ ἐπιγνῶναι αὐτόν.
17 فَقَالَ لَهُمَا: «مَا هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي تَتَطَارَحَانِ بِهِ وَأَنْتُمَا مَاشِيَانِ عَابِسَيْنِ؟».
17 εἶπε δὲ πρὸς αὐτούς· τίνες οἱ λόγοι οὗτοι οὓς ἀντιβάλλετε πρὸς ἀλλήλους περιπατοῦντες καί ἐστε σκυθρωποί;
18 فَأَجَابَ أَحَدُهُمَا، ٱلَّذِي ٱسْمُهُ كِلْيُوبَاسُ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «هَلْ أَنْتَ مُتَغَرِّبٌ وَحْدَكَ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ وَلَمْ تَعْلَمِ ٱلْأُمُورَ ٱلَّتِي حَدَثَتْ فِيهَا فِي هَذِهِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ؟».
18 ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ εἷς, ᾧ ὄνομα Κλεόπας, εἶπε πρὸς αὐτόν· σὺ μόνος παροικεῖς ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ οὐκ ἔγνως τὰ γενόμενα ἐν αὐτῇ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ταύταις;
19 فَقَالَ لَهُمَا: «وَمَا هِيَ؟». فَقَالَا: «ٱلْمُخْتَصَّةُ بِيَسُوعَ ٱلنَّاصِرِيِّ، ٱلَّذِي كَانَ إِنْسَانًا نَبِيًّا مُقْتَدِرًا فِي ٱلْفِعْلِ وَٱلْقَوْلِ أَمَامَ ٱللهِ وَجَمِيعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ.
19 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· ποῖα; οἱ δὲ εἶπον αὐτῷ· τὰ περὶ Ἰησοῦ τοῦ Ναζωραίου, ὃς ἐγένετο ἀνὴρ προφήτης δυνατὸς ἐν ἔργῳ καὶ λόγῳ ἐναντίον τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ,
20 كَيْفَ أَسْلَمَهُ رُؤَسَاءُ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَحُكَّامُنَا لِقَضَاءِ ٱلْمَوْتِ وَصَلَبُوهُ.
20 ὅπως τε παρέδωκαν αὐτὸν οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες ἡμῶν εἰς κρῖμα θανάτου καὶ ἐσταύρωσαν αὐτόν.
21 وَنَحْنُ كُنَّا نَرْجُو أَنَّهُ هُوَ ٱلْمُزْمِعُ أَنْ يَفْدِيَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَلَكِنْ، مَعَ هَذَا كُلِّهِ، ٱلْيَوْمَ لَهُ ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ مُنْذُ حَدَثَ ذَلِكَ.
21 ἡμεῖς δὲ ἠλπίζομεν ὅτι αὐτός ἐστιν ὁ μέλλων λυτροῦσθαι τὸν Ἰσραήλ· ἀλλά γε σὺν πᾶσι τούτοις τρίτην ταύτην ἡμέραν ἄγει σήμερον ἀφ᾽ οὗ ταῦτα ἐγένετο.
22 بَلْ بَعْضُ ٱلنِّسَاءِ مِنَّا حَيَّرْنَنَا إِذْ كُنَّ بَاكِرًا عِنْدَ ٱلْقَبْرِ،
22 ἀλλὰ καὶ γυναῖκές τινες ἐξ ἡμῶν ἐξέστησαν ἡμᾶς γενόμεναι ὄρθριαι ἐπὶ τὸ μνημεῖον,
23 وَلَمَّا لَمْ يَجِدْنَ جَسَدَهُ أَتَيْنَ قَائِلَاتٍ: إِنَّهُنَّ رَأَيْنَ مَنْظَرَ مَلَائِكَةٍ قَالُوا إِنَّهُ حَيٌّ.
23 καὶ μὴ εὑροῦσαι τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ ἦλθον λέγουσαι καὶ ὀπτασίαν ἀγγέλων ἑωρακέναι, οἳ λέγουσιν αὐτὸν ζῆν.
24 وَمَضَى قَوْمٌ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَنَا إِلَى ٱلْقَبْرِ، فَوَجَدُوا هَكَذَا كَمَا قَالَتْ أَيْضًا ٱلنِّسَاءُ، وَأَمَّا هُوَ فَلَمْ يَرَوْهُ».
24 καὶ ἀπῆλθόν τινες τῶν σὺν ἡμῖν ἐπὶ τὸ μνημεῖον, καὶ εὗρον οὕτω καθὼς καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες εἶπον, αὐτὸν δὲ οὐκ εἶδον.
25 فَقَالَ لَهُمَا: «أَيُّهَا ٱلْغَبِيَّانِ وَٱلْبَطِيئَا ٱلْقُلُوبِ فِي ٱلْإِيمَانِ بِجَمِيعِ مَا تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءُ!
25 καὶ αὐτὸς εἶπε πρὸς αὐτούς· ὦ ἀνόητοι καὶ βραδεῖς τῇ καρδίᾳ τοῦ πιστεύειν ἐπὶ πᾶσιν οἷς ἐλάλησαν οἱ προφῆται!
26 أَمَا كَانَ يَنْبَغِي أَنَّ ٱلْمَسِيحَ يَتَأَلَّمُ بِهَذَا وَيَدْخُلُ إِلَى مَجْدِهِ؟».
26 οὐχὶ ταῦτα ἔδει παθεῖν τὸν Χριστὸν καὶ εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὴν δόξαν αὐτοῦ;
27 ثُمَّ ٱبْتَدَأَ مِنْ مُوسَى وَمِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ يُفَسِّرُ لَهُمَا ٱلْأُمُورَ ٱلْمُخْتَصَّةَ بِهِ فِي جَمِيعِ ٱلْكُتُبِ.
27 καὶ ἀρξάμενος ἀπὸ Μωϋσέως καὶ ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν προφητῶν διηρμήνευεν αὐτοῖς ἐν πάσαις ταῖς γραφαῖς τὰ περὶ ἑαυτοῦ.
28 ثُمَّ ٱقْتَرَبُوا إِلَى ٱلْقَرْيَةِ ٱلَّتِي كَانَا مُنْطَلِقَيْنِ إِلَيْهَا، وَهُوَ تَظَاهَرَ كَأَنَّهُ مُنْطَلِقٌ إِلَى مَكَانٍ أَبْعَدَ.
28 Καὶ ἤγγισαν εἰς τὴν κώμην οὗ ἐπορεύοντο, καὶ αὐτὸς προσεποιεῖτο πορρωτέρω πορεύεσθαι·
29 فَأَلْزَمَاهُ قَائِلَيْنِ: «ٱمْكُثْ مَعَنَا، لِأَنَّهُ نَحْوُ ٱلْمَسَاءِ وَقَدْ مَالَ ٱلنَّهَارُ». فَدَخَلَ لِيَمْكُثَ مَعَهُمَا.
29 καὶ παρεβιάσαντο αὐτὸν λέγοντες· μεῖνον μεθ᾽ ἡμῶν, ὅτι πρὸς ἑσπέραν ἐστὶ καὶ κέκλικεν ἡ ἡμέρα. καὶ εἰσῆλθε τοῦ μεῖναι σὺν αὐτοῖς.
30 فَلَمَّا ٱتَّكَأَ مَعَهُمَا، أَخَذَ خُبْزًا وَبَارَكَ وَكَسَّرَ وَنَاوَلَهُمَا،
30 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ κατακλιθῆναι αὐτὸν μετ᾽ αὐτῶν λαβὼν τὸν ἄρτον εὐλόγησε, καὶ κλάσας ἐπεδίδου αὐτοῖς.
31 فَٱنْفَتَحَتْ أَعْيُنُهُمَا وَعَرَفَاهُ ثُمَّ ٱخْتَفَى عَنْهُمَا،
31 αὐτῶν δὲ διηνοίχθησαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοί, καὶ ἐπέγνωσαν αὐτόν· καὶ αὐτὸς ἄφαντος ἐγένετο ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν.
32 فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمَا لِبَعْضٍ: «أَلَمْ يَكُنْ قَلْبُنَا مُلْتَهِبًا فِينَا إِذْ كَانَ يُكَلِّمُنَا فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ وَيُوضِحُ لَنَا ٱلْكُتُبَ؟».
32 καὶ εἶπον πρὸς ἀλλήλους· οὐχὶ ἡ καρδία ἡμῶν καιομένη ἦν ἐν ἡμῖν, ὡς ἐλάλει ἡμῖν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ καὶ ὡς διήνοιγεν ἡμῖν τὰς γραφάς;
33 فَقَامَا فِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّاعَةِ وَرَجَعَا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَوَجَدَا ٱلْأَحَدَ عَشَرَ مُجْتَمِعِينَ، هُمْ وَٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُمْ
33 Καὶ ἀναστάντες αὐτῇ τῇ ὥρᾳ ὑπέστρεψαν εἰς Ἱερουσαλήμ, καὶ εὗρον συνηθροισμένους τοὺς ἕνδεκα καὶ τοὺς σὺν αὐτοῖς,
34 وَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ: «إِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَامَ بِٱلْحَقِيقَةِ وَظَهَرَ لِسِمْعَانَ!».
34 λέγοντας ὅτι ἠγέρθη ὁ Κύριος ὄντως καὶ ὤφθη Σίμωνι.
35 وَأَمَّا هُمَا فَكَانَا يُخْبِرَانِ بِمَا حَدَثَ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ، وَكَيْفَ عَرَفَاهُ عِنْدَ كَسْرِ ٱلْخُبْزِ.
35 καὶ αὐτοὶ ἐξηγοῦντο τὰ ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ καὶ ὡς ἐγνώσθη αὐτοῖς ἐν τῇ κλάσει τοῦ ἄρτου.
36 وَفِيمَا هُمْ يَتَكَلَّمُونَ بِهَذَا وَقَفَ يَسُوعُ نَفْسُهُ فِي وَسْطِهِمْ، وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «سَلَامٌ لَكُمْ!».
36 Ταῦτα δὲ αὐτῶν λαλούντων αὐτὸς ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἔστη ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς· εἰρήνη ὑμῖν.
37 فَجَزِعُوا وَخَافُوا، وَظَنُّوا أَنَّهُمْ نَظَرُوا رُوحًا.
37 πτοηθέντες δὲ καὶ ἔμφοβοι γενόμενοι ἐδόκουν πνεῦμα θεωρεῖν.
38 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «مَا بَالُكُمْ مُضْطَرِبِينَ، وَلِمَاذَا تَخْطُرُ أَفْكَارٌ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ؟
38 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· τί τεταραγμένοι ἐστέ, καὶ διατί διαλογισμοὶ ἀναβαίνουσιν ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν;
39 اُنْظُرُوا يَدَيَّ وَرِجْلَيَّ: إِنِّي أَنَا هُوَ! جُسُّونِي وَٱنْظُرُوا، فَإِنَّ ٱلرُّوحَ لَيْسَ لَهُ لَحْمٌ وَعِظَامٌ كَمَا تَرَوْنَ لِي».
39 ἴδετε τὰς χεῖράς μου καὶ τοὺς πόδας μου, ὅτι αὐτὸς ἐγώ εἰμι· ψηλαφήσατέ με καὶ ἴδετε, ὅτι πνεῦμα σάρκα καὶ ὀστέα οὐκ ἔχει καθὼς ἐμὲ θεωρεῖτε ἔχοντα.
40 وَحِينَ قَالَ هَذَا أَرَاهُمْ يَدَيْهِ وَرِجْلَيْهِ.
40 καὶ τοῦτο εἰπὼν ἐπέδειξεν αὐτοῖς τὰς χεῖρας καὶ τοὺς πόδας.
41 وَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ غَيْرُ مُصَدِّقِينَ مِنَ ٱلْفَرَحِ، وَمُتَعَجِّبُونَ، قَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَعِنْدَكُمْ هَهُنَا طَعَامٌ؟».
41 ἔτι δὲ ἀπιστούντων αὐτῶν ἀπὸ τῆς χαρᾶς καὶ θαυμαζόντων εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· ἔχετέ τι βρώσιμον ἐνθάδε;
42 فَنَاوَلُوهُ جُزْءًا مِنْ سَمَكٍ مَشْوِيٍّ، وَشَيْئًا مِنْ شَهْدِ عَسَلٍ.
42 οἱ δὲ ἐπέδωκαν αὐτῷ ἰχθύος ὀπτοῦ μέρος καὶ ἀπὸ μελισσίου κηρίου,
43 فَأَخَذَ وَأَكَلَ قُدَّامَهُمْ.
43 καὶ λαβὼν ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν ἔφαγεν.
44 وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمْتُكُمْ بِهِ وَأَنَا بَعْدُ مَعَكُمْ: أَنَّهُ لَا بُدَّ أَنْ يَتِمَّ جَمِيعُ مَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ عَنِّي فِي نَامُوسِ مُوسَى وَٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَٱلْمَزَامِيرِ».
44 εἶπε δὲ αὐτοῖς· οὗτοι οἱ λόγοι οὓς ἐλάλησα πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἔτι ὢν σὺν ὑμῖν, ὅτι δεῖ πληρωθῆναι πάντα τὰ γεγραμμένα ἐν τῷ νόμῳ Μωϋσέως καὶ προφήταις καὶ ψαλμοῖς περὶ ἐμοῦ.
45 حِينَئِذٍ فَتَحَ ذِهْنَهُمْ لِيَفْهَمُوا ٱلْكُتُبَ.
45 τότε διήνοιξεν αὐτῶν τὸν νοῦν τοῦ συνιέναι τὰς γραφάς,
46 وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «هَكَذَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ، وَهَكَذَا كَانَ يَنْبَغِي أَنَّ ٱلْمَسِيحَ يَتَأَلَّمُ وَيَقُومُ مِنَ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّالِثِ،
46 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὅτι οὕτω γέγραπται καὶ οὕτως ἔδει παθεῖν τὸν Χριστὸν καὶ ἀναστῆναι ἐκ νεκρῶν τῇ τρίτῃ ἡμέρᾳ,
47 وَأَنْ يُكْرَزَ بِٱسْمِهِ بِٱلتَّوْبَةِ وَمَغْفِرَةِ ٱلْخَطَايَا لِجَمِيعِ ٱلْأُمَمِ، مُبْتَدَأً مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ.
47 καὶ κηρυχθῆναι ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ μετάνοιαν καὶ ἄφεσιν ἁμαρτιῶν εἰς πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, ἀρξάμενον ἀπὸ Ἱερουσαλήμ.
48 وَأَنْتُمْ شُهُودٌ لِذَلِكَ.
48 ὑμεῖς δέ ἐστε μάρτυρες τούτων.
49 وَهَا أَنَا أُرْسِلُ إِلَيْكُمْ مَوْعِدَ أَبِي. فَأَقِيمُوا فِي مَدِينَةِ أُورُشَلِيمَ إِلَى أَنْ تُلْبَسُوا قُوَّةً مِنَ ٱلْأَعَالِي».
49 καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω τὴν ἐπαγγελίαν τοῦ πατρός μου ἐφ᾽ ὑμᾶς· ὑμεῖς δὲ καθίσατε ἐν τῇ πόλει Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἕως οὗ ἐνδύσησθε δύναμιν ἐξ ὕψους.
50 وَأَخْرَجَهُمْ خَارِجًا إِلَى بَيْتِ عَنْيَا، وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ وَبَارَكَهُمْ.
50 Ἐξήγαγε δὲ αὐτοὺς ἔξω ἕως εἰς Βηθανίαν, καὶ ἐπάρας τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ εὐλόγησεν αὐτούς.
51 وَفِيمَا هُوَ يُبَارِكُهُمُ، ٱنْفَرَدَ عَنْهُمْ وَأُصْعِدَ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ.
51 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ εὐλογεῖν αὐτὸν αὐτοὺς διέστη ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν καὶ ἀνεφέρετο εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν.
52 فَسَجَدُوا لَهُ وَرَجَعُوا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ بِفَرَحٍ عَظِيمٍ،
52 καὶ αὐτοὶ προσκυνήσαντες αὐτὸν ὑπέστρεψαν εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ μετὰ χαρᾶς μεγάλης,
53 وَكَانُوا كُلَّ حِينٍ فِي ٱلْهَيْكَلِ يُسَبِّحُونَ وَيُبَارِكُونَ ٱللهَ. آمِينَ.
53 καὶ ἦσαν διὰ παντὸς ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ αἰνοῦντες καὶ εὐλογοῦντες τὸν Θεόν. ἀμήν.

let the heretics be silenced who speak against His humanity, for they speak against Him, who saith, Handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

His running to the fig-tree, His shrinking, that is, His drawing back, His praying, and His making as though He would have gone further For neither as God nor as man was He in need of these or similar things, but only because His form was that of a man as necessity and expediency demanded.
