Acts 1

1
I composed the first discourse, O Theophilus, concerning all things which Jesus began both to do and to teach,
2
until that day in which, having by the Holy Spirit charged the apostles whom he had chosen, he was taken up;
3
to whom also he presented himself living, after he had suffered, with many proofs; being seen by them during forty days, and speaking of the things which concern the kingdom of God;
4
and, being assembled with [them], commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to await the promise of the Father, which [said he] ye have heard of me.
5
For John indeed baptised with water, but *ye* shall be baptised with the Holy Spirit after now not many days.
6
They therefore, being come together, asked him saying, Lord, is it at this time that thou restorest the kingdom to Israel?
7
And he said to them, It is not yours to know times or seasons, which the Father has placed in his own authority;
8
but ye will receive power, the Holy Spirit having come upon you, and ye shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.
9
And having said these things he was taken up, they beholding [him], and a cloud received him out of their sight.
10
And as they were gazing into heaven, as he was going, behold, also two men stood by them in white clothing,
11
who also said, Men of Galilee, why do ye stand looking into heaven? This Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven, shall thus come in the manner in which ye have beheld him going into heaven.
12
Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount called [the mount] of Olives, which is near Jerusalem, a sabbath-day's journey off.
13
And when they were come into [the city], they went up to the upper chamber, where were staying both Peter, and John, and James, and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James [son] of Alphaeus, and Simon the zealot, and Jude [the brother] of James.
14
These gave themselves all with one accord to continual prayer, with [several] women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
15
And in those days Peter, standing up in the midst of the brethren, said, (the crowd of names [who were] together [was] about a hundred and twenty,)
16
Brethren, it was necessary that the scripture should have been fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before, by the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus;
17
for he was numbered amongst us, and had received a part in this service.
18
(This [man] then indeed got a field with [the] reward of iniquity, and, having fallen down headlong, burst in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.
19
And it was known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that that field was called in their own dialect Aceldama; that is, field of blood.)
20
For it is written in [the] book of Psalms, Let his homestead become desolate, and let there be no dweller in it; and, Let another take his overseership.
21
It is necessary therefore, that of the men who have assembled with us all [the] time in which the Lord Jesus came in and went out among us,
22
beginning from the baptism of John until the day in which he was taken up from us, one of these should be a witness with us of his resurrection.
23
And they appointed two, Joseph, who was called Barsabas, who had been surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
24
And they prayed, and said, Thou Lord, knower of the hearts of all, shew which one of these two thou hast chosen,
25
to receive the lot of this service and apostleship, from which Judas transgressing fell to go to his own place.
26
And they gave lots on them, and the lot fell on Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.


Acts 2

1
And when the day of Pentecost was now accomplishing, they were all together in one place.
2
And there came suddenly a sound out of heaven as of a violent impetuous blowing, and filled all the house where they were sitting.
3
And there appeared to them parted tongues, as of fire, and it sat upon each one of them.
4
And they were all filled with [the] Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues as the Spirit gave to them to speak forth.
5
Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, pious men, from every nation of those under heaven.
6
But the rumour of this having spread, the multitude came together and were confounded, because each one heard them speaking in his own dialect.
7
And all were amazed and wondered, saying, Behold, are not all these who are speaking Galilaeans?
8
and how do *we* hear [them] each in our own dialect in which we have been born,
9
Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and those who inhabit Mesopotamia, and Judaea, and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
10
both Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the parts of Libya which adjoin Cyrene, and the Romans sojourning [here], both Jews and proselytes,
11
Cretans and Arabians, we hear them speaking in our own tongues the great things of God?
12
And they were all amazed and in perplexity, saying one to another, What would this mean?
13
But others mocking said, They are full of new wine.
14
But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice and spoke forth to them, Men of Judaea, and all ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give heed to my words:
15
for these are not full of wine, as *ye* suppose, for it is the third hour of the day;
16
but this is that which was spoken through the prophet Joel,
17
And it shall be in the last days, saith God, [that] I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your elders shall dream with dreams;
18
yea, even upon my bondmen and upon my bondwomen in those days will I pour out of my Spirit, and they shall prophesy.
19
And I will give wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
20
the sun shall be changed to darkness and the moon to blood, before the great and gloriously appearing day of [the] Lord come.
21
And it shall be that whosoever shall call upon the name of [the] Lord shall be saved.
22
Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus the Nazaraean, a man borne witness to by God to you by works of power and wonders and signs, which God wrought by him in your midst, as yourselves know
23
-- him, given up by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye, by [the] hand of lawless [men], have crucified and slain.
24
Whom God has raised up, having loosed the pains of death, inasmuch as it was not possible that he should be held by its power;
25
for David says as to him, I foresaw the Lord continually before me, because he is at my right hand that I may not be moved.
26
Therefore has my heart rejoiced and my tongue exulted; yea more, my flesh also shall dwell in hope,
27
for thou wilt not leave my soul in hades, nor wilt thou give thy gracious one to see corruption.
28
Thou hast made known to me [the] paths of life, thou wilt fill me with joy with thy countenance.
29
Brethren, let it be allowed to speak with freedom to you concerning the patriarch David, that he has both died and been buried, and his monument is amongst us unto this day.
30
Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath, of the fruit of his loins to set upon his throne;
31
he, seeing [it] before, spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, that neither has he been left in hades nor his flesh seen corruption.
32
This Jesus has God raised up, whereof all *we* are witnesses.
33
Having therefore been exalted by the right hand of God, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this which *ye* behold and hear.
34
For David has not ascended into the heavens, but he says himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit at my right hand
35
until I have put thine enemies [to be] the footstool of thy feet.
36
Let the whole house of Israel therefore know assuredly that God has made him, this Jesus whom *ye* have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
37
And having heard [it] they were pricked in heart, and said to Peter and the other apostles, What shall we do, brethren?
38
And Peter said to them, Repent, and be baptised, each one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, for remission of sins, and ye will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39
For to you is the promise and to your children, and to all who [are] afar off, as many as [the] Lord our God may call.
40
And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, Be saved from this perverse generation.
41
Those then who had accepted his word were baptised; and there were added in that day about three thousand souls.
42
And they persevered in the teaching and fellowship of the apostles, in breaking of bread and prayers.
43
And fear was upon every soul, and many wonders and signs took place through the apostles' means.
44
And all that believed were together, and had all things common,
45
and sold their possessions and substance, and distributed them to all, according as any one might have need.
46
And every day, being constantly in the temple with one accord, and breaking bread in [the] house, they received their food with gladness and simplicity of heart,
47
praising God, and having favour with all the people; and the Lord added [to the assembly] daily those that were to be saved.
