Acts 1:2-11

2UntilG891 the dayG2250 in whichG3739 he was taken upG353, after that heG1781 throughG1223 theG4151 HolyG40 GhostG4151 had given commandmentsG1781 unto the apostlesG3588G652 whomG3739 he had chosenG1586:

3To whomG3739 alsoG2532 he shewedG3936 himselfG1438 aliveG2198 afterG3326 hisG846 passionG3958 byG1722 manyG4183 infallible proofsG5039, being seenG3700 ofG1223 themG846 fortyG5062 daysG2250, andG2532 speakingG3004 of the things pertaining toG4012 the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316:

4AndG2532, being assembled togetherG4871 withG3326 them, commandedG3853 themG846 that they shouldG5563 notG3361 departG5563 fromG575 JerusalemG2414, butG235 wait forG4037 the promiseG3588G1860 of the FatherG3588G3962, whichG3739, saith he, ye have heardG191 of meG1473.

5ForG3754 JohnG2491 trulyG3303 baptizedG907 with waterG5204; butG1161 yeG4771 shall be baptizedG907 withG1722 theG4151 HolyG40 GhostG4151 notG3756 manyG4183 daysG2250 henceG3326.

6When theyG4905 thereforeG3767 were come togetherG4905, they askedG1905 of himG846, sayingG3004, LordG2962, wiltG1487 thouG600 atG1722 thisG3778 timeG3588G5550 restore againG600 the kingdomG3588G932 to IsraelG2474?

7AndG1161 he saidG3004 untoG4314 themG846, ItG1097 isG1510 notG3756 for youG4771 to knowG1097 the timesG5550 orG2228 the seasonsG2540, whichG3739 the FatherG3588G3962 hath putG5087 inG1722 his ownG2398 authorityG1849.

8ButG235 ye shall receiveG2983 powerG1411, after thatG1904 theG4151 HolyG40 GhostG4151 is comeG1904 uponG1909 youG4771: andG2532 ye shall beG1510 witnessesG3144 unto meG1473 bothG5037 inG1722 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 inG1722 allG3956 JudæaG3588G2449, andG2532 in SamariaG4540, andG2532 untoG2193 the uttermostG2078 part of the earthG3588G1093.

9AndG2532 when he had spokenG3004 these thingsG3778, while they beheldG991, heG846 was taken upG1869; andG2532 a cloudG3507 receivedG5274 himG846 out ofG575 theirG846 sightG3588G3788.

10AndG2532 whileG5613 they looked stedfastlyG816 towardG1519 heavenG3588G3772 asG4198 heG846 went upG4198, beholdG3708, twoG1417 menG435 stood byG3936 themG846 inG1722 whiteG3022 apparelG2066;

11WhichG3739 alsoG2532 saidG3004, Ye menG435 of GalileeG1057, whyG5101 stand yeG2476 gazing upG1689 intoG1519 heavenG3588G3772? this sameG3778 JesusG3588G2424, which is taken upG353 fromG575 youG4771 intoG1519 heavenG3588G3772, shallG2064 soG3779 comeG2064 in like mannerG5158 asG3739 ye have seenG2300 himG846 goG4198 intoG1519 heavenG3588G3772.
