Acts 1:5-14

5for 1John baptized with water, but you will be baptized 2with the Holy Spirit 34not many days from now.”

6So when they had come together, they were asking Him, saying, “Lord, 5is it at this time You are restoring the kingdom to Israel?” 7He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or epochs which 6the Father has fixed by His own authority; 8but you will receive power 7when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be 8My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and 9Samaria, and even to 10the remotest part of the earth.” 9And after He had said these things, 11He was lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. 10And as they were gazing intently into 12the sky while He was going, behold, 13two men in white clothing stood beside them. 11They also said, “14Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into 15the sky? This Jesus, who 16has been taken up from you into heaven, will 17come in just the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven.”

12Then they 18returned to Jerusalem from the 1920mount called 21Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a 22Sabbath day’s journey away. 13When they had entered the city, they went up to 23the upper room where they were staying; 24that is, Peter and John and 25James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, 26James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zealot, and 27Judas the 28son of 29James. 14These all with one mind 30were continually devoting themselves to prayer, along with 31the women, and Mary the 32mother of Jesus, and with His 33brothers.
