Luke 24:21

ημεις δε ηλπιζομεν οτι αυτος εστιν ο μελλων λυτρουσθαι τον ισραηλ αλλα γε συν πασιν τουτοις τριτην ταυτην ημεραν αγει σημερον αφ ου ταυτα εγενετο

ēmeis de ēlpizomen oti aytos estin o mellōn lytroysthai ton israēl alla ge syn pasin toytois tritēn taytēn ēmeran agei sēmeron aph oy tayta egeneto

King James Version (KJV)

But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.

Modern English

But we were hoping that it was he who would redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things happened.
