Luke 24:49-53

49Now listen! I will send to you the gift that God my Father has promised to give to you. You must stay here in the city until this happens. Then the power of God will come from heaven and it will cover you.’

50Then Jesus led the group of his disciples out of the city. They all went to a place near the village called Bethany. He held up his hands towards them all. He asked God to be good to them.

51While he was praying for them like that, he went up away from them. God lifted him up to heaven.

52The disciples praised Jesus for his great power. Then they returned to Jerusalem and they were all very happy.

53All the time they were in the temple and they were praising God.
