Acts 1:8-12
8but you will receiveG2983 powerG1411 1when the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 has comeG1904 upon you; and you shall be 2My witnessesG3144 bothG5037 in JerusalemG2419, and in allG3956 JudeaG2453 and 3SamariaG4540, and evenG2193 to 4the remotestG2078 partG2078 of the earthG1093.” 9And after He had saidG3004 theseG3778 thingsG3778, 5He was liftedG1869 up while they were lookingG991 on, and a cloudG3507 receivedG5274 Him out of their sightG3788. 10And as they were gazingG816 intentlyG816 into 6the skyG3772 while He was goingG4198, beholdG2400, 7twoG1417 menG435 in whiteG3022 clothingG2067 stoodG3936 besideG3936 them. 11They alsoG2532 saidG3004, “8MenG435 of GalileeG1057, whyG5101 do you standG2476 lookingG991 into 9the skyG3772? ThisG3778 JesusG2424, who 10has been takenG353 up from you into heavenG3772, will 11comeG2064 in justG3779 the sameG5158 wayG5158 as you have watchedG2300 Him goG4198 into heavenG3772.”
12ThenG5119 they 12returnedG5290 to JerusalemG2419 from the 1314mountG3735 calledG2564 15OlivetG1638, whichG3739 is nearG1451 JerusalemG2419, a 16SabbathG4521 day’s journeyG3598 away.
