Acts 1:5-14

5for 1John baptized 2with water, but you will be baptized 3with the Holy Spirit 45not many days from now.”

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

12Then they 17returned to Jerusalem from the 1819mountain called 20Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a 21Sabbath day’s journey away. 13When they had entered the city, they went up to 22the upstairs room where they were staying, that is, 23Peter, John, 24James, and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, 25James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and 26Judas the 27son of 28James. 14All these 29were continually devoting themselves with one 30mind to prayer, along with 31the women, and Mary the 32mother of Jesus, and with His 33brothers.
