Acts 1:5-14
5ForG3754G3303 JohnG2491 baptizedG907 with waterG5204, butG1161 in a fewG3756G4183 daysG2250 youG4771 will be baptizedG907 withG1722 the HolyG40 SpiritG4151.1”
6SoG3767 when theyG3588 came togetherG4905, they askedG2065 HimG846, “LordG2962, will You atG1722 thisG3778 timeG5550 restoreG1487G600 theG3588 kingdomG932 to IsraelG2474?”
Jesus repliedG2036G4314G846, “It isG1510 notG3756 for youG4771 to knowG1097 timesG5550 orG2228 seasonsG2540 thatG3739 theG3588 FatherG3962 has fixedG5087 byG1722 His ownG2398 authorityG1849. 8ButG235 you will receiveG2983 powerG1411 when theG3588 HolyG40 SpiritG4151 comesG1904 uponG1909 youG4771, andG2532 you will beG1510 MyG1473 witnessesG3144 inG1722 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 inG1722 allG3956 JudeaG2449 andG2532 SamariaG4540, andG2532 toG2193 the endsG2078 of theG3588 earthG1093.”
9After He had saidG2036 thisG3778, theyG846 watched asG991 He was taken upG1869, andG2532 a cloudG3507 hidG5274 HimG846 fromG575 theirG846 sightG3788. 10They wereG1510 looking intentlyG816 intoG1519 theG3588 skyG3772 as HeG846 was goingG4198, when suddenlyG2400 twoG1417 menG435 dressedG2066 inG1722 whiteG3022 stood besideG3936 themG846. 11“MenG435 of GalileeG1057,” they saidG2036, “whyG5101 do you standG2476 here lookingG991 intoG1519 theG3588 skyG3772? ThisG3778 same JesusG2424, whoG3588 has been takenG353 fromG575 youG4771 intoG1519 heavenG3772, will come backG2064 in the same wayG3739G5158 you have seenG2300 HimG846 goG4198 intoG1519 heavenG3772.”
12ThenG5119 they returnedG5290 toG1519 JerusalemG2419 fromG575 the MountG3735 ofG2564 OlivesG1638, whichG3739 isG1510 nearG1451 the city, a Sabbath day’sG4521 journeyG3598 awayG2192.2 13WhenG3753 they arrivedG1525, they wentG305 toG1519 theG3588 upper roomG5253 whereG3757 they wereG1510 stayingG2650: PeterG4074 andG2532 JohnG2491, JamesG2385 andG2532 AndrewG406, PhilipG5376 andG2532 ThomasG2381, BartholomewG918 andG2532 MatthewG3156, JamesG2385 son of AlphaeusG256, SimonG4613 theG3588 ZealotG2207, andG2532 JudasG2455 son of JamesG2385. 14With one accordG3661 theyG3778 allG3956 continuedG4342 in prayerG4335, along withG4862 the womenG1135 andG2532 MaryG3137 theG3588 motherG3384 of JesusG2424, andG2532 withG4862 HisG846 brothersG80.
