Acts 1:20-26
20“ForG1063 it is writtenG1125 inG1722 the bookG976 of PsalmsG5568:
andG2532,
21ThereforeG3767 it is necessaryG1163 to choose one of theG3588 menG435 who have accompaniedG4905 usG1473 the wholeG1722G3956 timeG5550 theG3588 LordG2962 JesusG2424 went inG1525 andG2532 outG1831 amongG1909 usG1473, 22beginningG756 fromG575 John’sG2491 baptismG908 untilG2193 theG3588 dayG2250 Jesus was taken upG353 fromG575 usG1473. For oneG1520 of theseG3778 must becomeG1096 a witnessG3144 withG4862 usG1473 ofG3588 HisG846 resurrectionG386.”
23So they proposedG2476 twoG1417 men: JosephG2501 calledG2564 BarsabbasG923 (also known asG1941 JustusG2459) andG2532 MatthiasG3159. 24AndG2532 they prayedG4336, “LordG2962, YouG4771 know everyone’s heartG2589G3956. ShowG322 us whichG3739G1520 ofG1537 theseG3778 twoG1417 You have chosenG1586 25to take upG2983G3588G5117 thisG3778 ministryG1248 andG2532 apostleshipG651, whichG3739 JudasG2455 abandonedG3845 to goG4198 toG1519 hisG3588 rightful placeG5117.”
26ThenG2532 they castG1325 lotsG2819G846, andG2532 theG3588 lotG2819 fellG4098 toG1909 MatthiasG3159. So he was addedG4785 toG3326 theG3588 elevenG1733 apostlesG652.
