1. The former account, indeed, I made concerning all things, O Theophilus, that Jesus began both to do and to teach,
|
1. The G3588 former G4413 treatise G3056 have G3303 I made G4160 , O G5599 Theophilus G2321 , of G4012 all G3956 that G3739 Jesus G2424 began G756 both G5037 to do G4160 and G2532 teach G1321 ,
|
|
2. till the day in which, having given command, through the Holy Spirit, to the apostles whom he did choose out, he was taken up,
|
2. Until G891 the day G2250 in which G3739 he was taken up G353 , after that he through G1223 the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 had given commandments G1781 unto the G3588 apostles G652 whom G3739 he had chosen G1586 :
|
|
3. to whom also he did present himself alive after his suffering, in many certain proofs, through forty days being seen by them, and speaking the things concerning the reign of God.
|
3. To whom G3739 also G2532 he showed G3936 himself G1438 alive G2198 after his G846 passion G3958 by G1722 many G4183 infallible proofs G5039 , being seen G3700 of them G846 forty G5062 days G2250 , and G2532 speaking G3004 of the things G3588 pertaining G4012 to the G3588 kingdom G932 of God G2316 :
|
|
4. And being assembled together with them, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, `Ye did hear of me;
|
4. And G2532 , being assembled together with G4871 them, commanded G3853 them G846 that they should not G3361 depart G5563 from G575 Jerusalem G2414 , but G235 wait for G4037 the G3588 promise G1860 of the G3588 Father G3962 , which G3739 , saith he, ye have heard G191 of me G3450 .
|
|
5. because John, indeed, baptized with water, and ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit -- after not many days.`
|
5. For G3754 John G2491 truly G3303 baptized G907 with water G5204 ; but G1161 ye G5210 shall be baptized G907 with G1722 the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 not G3756 many G4183 days G2250 hence G5025 .
|
|
6. They, therefore, indeed, having come together, were questioning him, saying, `Lord, dost thou at this time restore the reign to Israel?`
|
6. When they G3588 G3303 therefore G3767 were come together G4905 , they asked G1905 of him G846 , saying G3004 , Lord G2962 , wilt thou G1487 at G1722 this G5129 time G5550 restore again G600 the G3588 kingdom G932 to Israel G2474 ?
|
|
7. and he said unto them, `It is not yours to know times or seasons that the Father did appoint in His own authority;
|
7. And G1161 he said G2036 unto G4314 them G846 , It is G2076 not G3756 for you G5216 to know G1097 the times G5550 or G2228 the seasons G2540 , which G3739 the G3588 Father G3962 hath put G5087 in G1722 his own G2398 power G1849 .
|
|
8. but ye shall receive power at the coming of the Holy Spirit upon you, and ye shall be witnesses to me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and unto the end of the earth.`
|
8. But G235 ye shall receive G2983 power G1411 , after that the G3588 Holy G40 Ghost G4151 is come G1904 upon G1909 you G5209 : and G2532 ye shall be G2071 witnesses G3144 unto me G3427 both G5037 in G1722 Jerusalem G2419 , and G2532 in G1722 all G3956 Judea G2449 , and G2532 in Samaria G4540 , and G2532 unto G2193 the uttermost part G2078 of the G3588 earth G1093 .
|
|
9. And these things having said -- they beholding -- he was taken up, and a cloud did receive him up from their sight;
|
9. And G2532 when he had spoken G2036 these things G5023 , while they G846 beheld G991 , he was taken up G1869 ; and G2532 a cloud G3507 received G5274 him G846 out of G575 their G846 sight G3788 .
|
|
10. and as they were looking stedfastly to the heaven in his going on, then, lo, two men stood by them in white apparel,
|
10. And G2532 while G5613 they looked steadfastly G2258 G816 toward G1519 heaven G3772 as he G846 went up G4198 , behold G2400 , two G1417 men G435 G2532 stood by G3936 them G846 in G1722 white G3022 apparel G2066 ;
|
|
11. who also said, `Men, Galileans, why do ye stand gazing into the heaven? this Jesus who was received up from you into the heaven, shall so come in what manner ye saw him going on to the heaven.`
|
11. Which G3739 also G2532 said G2036 , Ye men G435 of Galilee G1057 , why G5101 stand G2476 ye gazing up G1689 into G1519 heaven G3772 ? this same G3778 Jesus G2424 , which is taken up G353 from G575 you G5216 into G1519 heaven G3772 , shall so G3779 come G2064 in like manner G3739 G5158 as ye have seen G2300 him G846 go G4198 into G1519 heaven G3772 .
|
|
12. Then did they return to Jerusalem from the mount that is called of Olives, that is near Jerusalem, a sabbath`s journey;
|
12. Then G5119 returned G5290 they unto G1519 Jerusalem G2419 from G575 the mount G3735 called G2564 Olivet G1638 , which is G3603 from G1451 Jerusalem G2419 a G2192 sabbath day G4521 's journey G3598 .
|
|
13. and when they came in, they went up to the upper room, where were abiding both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James, of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zelotes, and Judas, of James;
|
13. And G2532 when G3753 they were come in G1525 , they went up G305 into G1519 an upper room G5253 , where G3757 abode G2258 G2650 both G5037 Peter G4074 , and G2532 James G2385 , and G2532 John G2491 , and G2532 Andrew G406 , Philip G5376 , and G2532 Thomas G2381 , Bartholomew G918 , and G2532 Matthew G3156 , James G2385 the son of Alphaeus G256 , and G2532 Simon G4613 Zelotes G2208 , and G2532 Judas G2455 the brother of James G2385 .
|
|
14. these all were continuing with one accord in prayer and supplication, with women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
|
14. These G3778 all G3956 continued G2258 G4342 with one accord G3661 in prayer G4335 and G2532 supplication G1162 , with G4862 the women G1135 , and G2532 Mary G3137 the G3588 mother G3384 of Jesus G2424 , and G2532 with G4862 his G846 brethren G80 .
|
|
15. And in these days, Peter having risen up in the midst of the disciples, said, (the multitude also of the names at the same place was, as it were, an hundred and twenty,)
|
15. And G2532 in G1722 those G5025 days G2250 Peter G4074 stood up G450 in G1722 the midst G3319 of the G3588 disciples G3101 , and said G2036 , ( the G5037 number G3793 of names G3686 together G1909 G846 were G2258 about G5613 a hundred and twenty G1540 G1501 ,)
|
|
16. `Men, brethren, it behoved this Writing that it be fulfilled that beforehand the Holy Spirit spake through the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus,
|
16. Men G435 and brethren G80 , this G5026 Scripture G1124 must needs G1163 have been fulfilled G4137 , which G3739 the G3588 Holy G40 Ghost G4151 by G1223 the mouth G4750 of David G1138 spake before G4277 concerning G4012 Judas G2455 , which was G1096 guide G3595 to them that took G4815 Jesus G2424 .
|
|
17. because he was numbered among us, and did receive the share in this ministration,
|
17. For G3754 he was G2258 numbered G2674 with G4862 us G2254 , and G2532 had obtained G2975 part G2819 of this G5026 ministry G1248 .
|
|
18. this one, indeed, then, purchased a field out of the reward of unrighteousness, and falling headlong, burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed forth,
|
18. Now G3767 this man G3778 G3303 purchased G2932 a field G5564 with G1537 the G3588 reward G3408 of iniquity G93 ; and G2532 falling G1096 headlong G4248 , he burst asunder G2997 in the midst G3319 , and G2532 all G3956 his G846 bowels G4698 gushed out G1632 .
|
|
19. and it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem, insomuch that that place is called, in their proper dialect, Aceldama, that is, field of blood,
|
19. And G2532 it was G1096 known G1110 unto all G3956 the G3588 dwellers G2730 at Jerusalem G2419 ; insomuch as G5620 that G1565 field G5564 is called G2564 in their G846 proper G2398 tongue G1258 , Aceldama G184 , that is to say G5123 , The field G5564 of blood G129 .
|
|
20. for it hath been written in the book of Psalms: Let his lodging-place become desolate, and let no one be dwelling in it, and his oversight let another take.
|
20. For G1063 it is written G1125 in G1722 the book G976 of Psalms G5568 , Let his G846 habitation G1886 be G1096 desolate G2048 , and G2532 let no G3361 man G2077 dwell G2730 therein G1722 G846 : and G2532 his G846 bishopric G1984 let another G2087 take G2983 .
|
|
21. `It behoveth, therefore, of the men who did go with us during all the time in which the Lord Jesus went in and went out among us,
|
21. Wherefore G3767 of G1163 these men G435 which have companied G4905 with us G2254 all G3956 the time G5550 that G1722 G3739 the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 went in G1525 and G2532 out G1831 among G1909 us G2248 ,
|
|
22. beginning from the baptism of John, unto the day in which he was received up from us, one of these to become with us a witness of his rising again.`
|
22. Beginning G756 from G575 the G3588 baptism G908 of John G2491 , unto G2193 that same day G2250 that G3739 he was taken up G353 from G575 us G2257 , must one G1520 be G5130 ordained G1096 to be a witness G3144 with G4862 us G2254 of his G846 resurrection G386 .
|
|
23. And they set two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias,
|
23. And G2532 they appointed G2476 two G1417 , Joseph G2501 called G2564 Barsabas G923 , who G3739 was surnamed G1941 Justus G2459 , and G2532 Matthias G3159 .
|
|
24. and having prayed, they said, `Thou, Lord, who art knowing the heart of all, shew which one thou didst choose of these two
|
24. And G2532 they prayed G4336 , and said G2036 , Thou G4771 , Lord G2962 , which knowest the hearts G2589 of all G3956 men, show G322 whether G3739 G1520 of G1537 these G5130 two G1417 thou hast chosen G1586 ,
|
|
25. to receive the share of this ministration and apostleship, from which Judas, by transgression, did fall, to go on to his proper place;`
|
25. That he may take G2983 part G2819 of this G5026 ministry G1248 and G2532 apostleship G651 , from G1537 which G3739 Judas G2455 by transgression fell G3845 , that he might go G4198 to G1519 his own G2398 place G5117 .
|
|
26. and they gave their lots, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
|
26. And G2532 they gave forth G1325 their G846 lots G2819 ; and G2532 the G3588 lot G2819 fell G4098 upon G1909 Matthias G3159 ; and G2532 he was numbered G4785 with G3326 the G3588 eleven G1733 apostles G652 .
