Éischt Liesung

The Acts of Apostles 2: 14, 22-33

2:14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and he spoke to them: “Men of Judea, and all those who are staying in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and incline your ears to my words.
2:22 Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus the Nazarene is a man confirmed by God among you through the miracles and wonders and signs that God accomplished through him in your midst, just as you also know.
2:23 This man, under the definitive plan and foreknowledge of God, was delivered by the hands of the unjust, afflicted, and put to death.
2:24 And he whom God has raised up has broken the sorrows of Hell, for certainly it was impossible for him to be held by it.
2:25 For David said about him: ‘I foresaw the Lord always in my sight, for he is at my right hand, fir datt ech net bewegt ginn.
2:26 Dowéinst, mäin Häerz huet sech gefreet, a meng Zong huet gefreet. Ausserdeem, mäi Fleesch wäert och an der Hoffnung raschten.
2:27 Well Dir wäert meng Séil net an d'Häll opginn, nach wäert Dir Ären Hellege erlaben Korruptioun ze gesinn.
2:28 Dir hutt mir d'Weeër vum Liewen bekannt gemaach. Dir wäert mech komplett mat Gléck duerch Är Präsenz fëllen.'
2:29 Adel Bridder, erlaabt mir fräi mat Iech iwwer de Patriarch David ze schwätzen: well hien ass gestuerwen a gouf begruewen, a säi Graf ass bei eis, och bis haut.
2:30 Dofir, hie war e Prophéit, well hie wousst, datt Gott him en Eed geschwuer huet iwwer d'Fruucht vu senge Lenden, iwwer deen, deen op sengem Troun sëtze géif.
2:31 Virausgesinn dëst, hie geschwat iwwer d'Operstéiungszeen vum Christus. Well hie war weder an der Hell hannerlooss, nach huet säi Fleesch Korruptioun gesinn.
2:32 Dëse Jesus, Gott huet erëm opgestan, an dovunner si mir alleguer Zeien.
2:33 Dofir, op déi riets Hand vu Gott erhiewen, a krut vum Papp d'Versprieche vum Hellege Geescht, hien huet dëst erausginn, sou wéi Dir elo gesitt an héiert.

Zweet Liesung

First Letter of Peter 1: 17-21

1:17 And if you invoke as Father him who, without showing favoritism to persons, judges according to each one’s work, then act in fear during the time of your sojourning here.

1:18 For you know that it was not with corruptible gold or silver that you were redeemed away from your useless behavior in the traditions of your fathers,

1:19 but it was with the precious blood of Christ, an immaculate and undefiled lamb,

1:20 foreknown, certainly, before the foundation of the world, and made manifest in these latter times for your sake.

1:21 Through him, you have been faithful to God, who raised him up from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope would be in God.

Evangelium

The Holy Gospel According to Luke 24: 13-35

24:13 And behold, two of them went out, on the same day, to a town named Emmaus, which was the distance of sixty stadia from Jerusalem.
24:14 And they spoke to one another about all of these things that had occurred.
24:15 And it happened that, while they were speculating and questioning within themselves, Jesus himself, drawing near, traveled with them.
24:16 But their eyes were restrained, so that they would not recognize him.
24:17 An hie sot zu hinnen, “What are these words, which you are discussing with one another, as you walk and are sad?"
24:18 And one of them, whose name was Cleopas, responded by saying to him, “Are you the only one visiting Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?"
24:19 An hie sot zu hinnen, “What things?” And they said, “About Jesus of Nazareth, who was a noble prophet, powerful in works and in words, before God and all the people.
24:20 And how our high priests and leaders handed him over to be condemned to death. And they crucified him.
24:21 But we were hoping that he would be the Redeemer of Israel. And now, on top of all this, today is the third day since these things have happened.
24:22 Dann, och, certain women from among us terrified us. For before daytime, they were at the tomb,
24:23 an, having not found his body, they returned, saying that they had even seen a vision of Angels, who said that he is alive.
24:24 And some of us went out to the tomb. And they found it just as the women had said. But truly, they did not find him.”
24:25 An hie sot zu hinnen: “How foolish and reluctant in heart you are, to believe everything that has been spoken by the Prophets!
24:26 Was not the Christ required to suffer these things, and so enter into his glory?"
24:27 And beginning from Moses and all the Prophets, he interpreted for them, in all the Scriptures, the things that were about him.
24:28 And they drew near to the town where they were going. And he conducted himself so as to go on further.
24:29 But they were insistent with him, gesot, “Remain with us, because it is toward evening and now daylight is declining.” And so he entered with them.
24:30 And it happened that, while he was at table with them, he took bread, and he blessed and broke it, and he extended it to them.
24:31 And their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And he vanished from their eyes.
24:32 And they said to one another, “Was not our heart burning within us, while he was speaking on the way, and when he opened the Scriptures to us?"
24:33 And rising up at that same hour, they returned to Jerusalem. And they found the eleven gathered together, and those who were with them,
24:34 gesot: “In truth, the Lord has risen, and he has appeared to Simon.”
24:35 And they explained the things that were done on the way, and how they had recognized him at the breaking of the bread.
