| [1]THE first book have I written, O Theoph'i- lus, concerning all the things which our Lord Jesus Christ began to do and teach |
[1]The formerG3303[G4413] treatiseG3056 have I madeG4160[G5668], OG5599 TheophilusG2321, ofG4012 allG3956 thatG3739 JesusG2424 beganG756[G5662] bothG5037 to doG4160[G5721] andG2532 G1321teachG5721 |
| [2]Until the day when he ascended after he, through the Holy Spirit, had given commandments to the apostles whom he had chosen; |
[2]UntilG891 the dayG2250 in whichG3739 he was taken upG353[G5681], after that he throughG1223 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 had given commandmentsG1781[G5674] unto the apostlesG652 whomG3739 he had chosenG1586:[G5668] |
| [3]The very ones to whom he had also shown himself alive, after he had suffered, with many wonders during the forty days, while appearing to them and talking with them concerning the kingdom of God: |
[3]To whomG3739 alsoG2532 he shewedG3936[G5656] himselfG1438 aliveG2198[G5723] afterG3326 hisG846 passionG3958[G5629] byG1722 manyG4183 infallible proofsG5039, being seenG3700[G5740] of themG846[G1223] fortyG5062 daysG2250, andG2532 speakingG3004[G5723] of the things pertainingG4012 to the kingdomG932 of GodG2316: |
| [4]And as he ate bread with them, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem but to wait for the promise of the Father, the one of whom you have heard from me. |
[4]AndG2532, being assembled togetherG4871[G5740] withG846 them, commandedG3853[G5656] themG846 that they shouldG5563 notG3361 departG5563[G5745] fromG575 JerusalemG2414, butG235 waitG4037[G5721] for the promiseG1860 of the FatherG3962, whichG3739, saith he, ye have heardG191[G5656] of meG3450. |
| [5]For John baptized with water; but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days hence. |
[5]ForG3754 JohnG2491 trulyG3303 baptizedG907[G5656] with waterG5204; butG1161 yeG5210 shall be baptizedG907[G5701] withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 notG3756 manyG3326[G4183] daysG2250 henceG5025. |
| [6]While they were assembled, they asked him, saying, Our LORD, will you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel? |
[6]WhenG3303 they thereforeG3767 were come togetherG4905[G5631], they askedG1905[G5707] of himG846, sayingG3004[G5723], LordG2962,[G1487] wilt thouG600 atG1722 thisG5129 timeG5550 restore againG600[G5719] the kingdomG932 to IsraelG2474? |
| [7]He said to them, It is not for you to know the time or times, which the Father has put under his own authority. |
[7]AndG1161 he saidG2036[G5627] untoG4314 themG846, It isG2076[G5748] notG3756 for youG5216 to knowG1097[G5629] the timesG5550 orG2228 the seasonsG2540, whichG3739 the FatherG3962 hath putG5087[G5639] inG1722 his ownG2398 powerG1849. |
| [8]But when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, you shall receive power and you shall be witnesses to me both in Jerusalem and in all Judaea also in the province of Samaria and unto the uttermost part of the earth. |
[8]ButG235 ye shall receiveG2983[G5695] powerG1411, after that the HolyG40 GhostG4151 is comeG1904[G5631] uponG1909 youG5209: andG2532 ye shall beG2071[G5704] witnessesG3144 unto meG3427 bothG5037 inG1722 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 inG1722 allG3956 JudaeaG2449, andG2532 in SamariaG4540, andG2532 untoG2193 the uttermost partG2078 of the earthG1093. |
| [9]And when he had spoken these things, he ascended while they were looking at him; a cloud received him and he was hidden from their sight. |
[9]AndG2532 when he had spokenG2036[G5631] these thingsG5023, while theyG846 beheldG991[G5723], he was taken upG1869[G5681]; andG2532 a cloudG3507 receivedG5274[G5627] himG846 out ofG575 theirG846 sightG3788. |
| [10]And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold two men stood by them in white robes; |
[10]AndG2532 whileG5613 they looked stedfastlyG2258[G5713][G816][G5723] towardG1519 heavenG3772 as heG846 went upG4198[G5740],[G2532] beholdG2400[G5628], twoG1417 menG435 stood byG3936[G5715] themG846 inG1722 whiteG3022 apparelG2066; |
| [11]And they said to them, Men of Gal'i-lee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus who has ascended from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as you have seen him ascend into heaven. |
[11]WhichG3739 alsoG2532 saidG2036[G5627], Ye menG435 of GalileeG1057, whyG5101 stand yeG2476[G5758] gazing upG1689[G5723] intoG1519 heavenG3772? this sameG3778 JesusG2424, whichG3588 is taken upG353[G5685] fromG575 youG5216 intoG1519 heavenG3772, shallG2064 soG3779 comeG2064[G5695] in like manner asG3739[G5158] ye have seenG2300[G5662] himG846 goG4198[G5740] intoG1519 heavenG3772. |
| [12]Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount which is called Ol'i-vet, home of Olives, which is near to Jerusalem, about a mile away. |
[12]ThenG5119 returned theyG5290[G5656] untoG1519 JerusalemG2419 fromG575 the mountG3735 calledG2564[G5746] OlivetG1638, whichG3739 isG2076[G5748] fromG1451 JerusalemG2419 a sabbathG4521 day's journeyG2192[G5723].[G3598] |
| [13]And after they had entered into the city, they went up into an upper room, where stayed Peter and John and James and Andrew, and also Philip and Thomas, and Matthew and Bar-thol'o-mew and James the son of Al-phae'us, and Simon the zealot, and Judas the son of James. |
[13]AndG2532 whenG3753 they were come inG1525[G5627], they went upG305[G5627] intoG1519 an upper roomG5253, whereG3757 abodeG2258[G5713][G2650][G5723] bothG5037 PeterG4074, andG2532 JamesG2385, andG2532 JohnG2491, andG2532 AndrewG406, PhilipG5376, andG2532 ThomasG2381, BartholomewG918, andG2532 MatthewG3156, JamesG2385 the son of AlphaeusG256, andG2532 SimonG4613 ZelotesG2208, andG2532 JudasG2455 the brother of JamesG2385. |
| [14]These all continued together in prayer with one accord, with the women, and Mary the Mother of Jesus, and with his brothers. |
[14]TheseG3778 allG3956 continuedG2258[G5713][G4342][G5723] with one accordG3661 in prayerG4335 andG2532 supplicationG1162, withG4862 the womenG1135, andG2532 MaryG3137 the motherG3384 of JesusG2424, andG2532 withG4862 hisG846 brethrenG80. |
| [15]And in those days Simon Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples (there were there a number of men, about a hundred and twenty), and said, |
[15]AndG2532 inG1722 thoseG5025 daysG2250 PeterG4074 stood upG450[G5631] inG1722 the midstG3319 of the disciplesG3101, and saidG2036[G5627],[G5037] (the numberG3793 of namesG3686 togetherG1909[G846] wereG2258[G5713] aboutG5613 an hundredG1540 and twentyG1501,) |
| [16]Men and brethren, it was proper that the scripture should be fulfilled, that which the Holy Spirit foretold by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who was guide to them that seized Jesus. |
[16]MenG435 and brethrenG80, thisG5026 scriptureG1124 mustG1163[G5713] needs have been fulfilledG4137[G5683], whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 byG1223 the mouthG4750 of DavidG1138 spake beforeG4277[G5627] concerningG4012 JudasG2455, whichG3588 wasG1096[G5637] guideG3595 to them that tookG4815[G5631] JesusG2424. |
| [17]For he was numbered with us and had a lot in this ministry. |
[17]ForG3754 he wasG2258[G5713] numberedG2674[G5772] withG4862 usG2254, andG2532 had obtainedG2975[G5627] partG2819 of thisG5026 ministryG1248. |
| [18]He is the one who earned for himself a field with the price of sin; and falling headlong, he burst open in the midst and all his bowels gushed out. |
[18]NowG3303[G3767] this manG3778 purchasedG2932[G5662] a fieldG5564 withG1537 the rewardG3408 of iniquityG93; andG2532 fallingG1096[G5637] headlongG4248, he burst asunderG2997[G5656] in the midstG3319, andG2532 allG3956 hisG846 bowelsG4698 gushed outG1632.[G5681] |
| [19]And this very thing is known to all who dwell in Jerusalem; so that the field is called in the language of the country, Kha'kal- De'ma which is to say Ko-ri-ath'dem, the field of blood. |
[19]AndG2532 it wasG1096[G5633] knownG1110 unto allG3956 the dwellersG2730[G5723] at JerusalemG2419; insomuch asG5620 thatG1565 fieldG5564 is calledG2564[G5683] in theirG846 properG2398 tongueG1258, AceldamaG184, that is to sayG5123[G5748], The fieldG5564 of bloodG129. |
| [20]For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no one dwell in it; and let his duty be taken by another man. |
[20]ForG1063 it is writtenG1125[G5769] inG1722 the bookG976 of PsalmsG5568, LetG1096 hisG846 habitationG1886 beG1096[G5676] desolateG2048, andG2532 letG2077[G5749] no manG3361 dwellG2730[G5723] thereinG1722[G846]: andG2532 hisG846 bishoprickG1984 letG2983 anotherG2087 takeG2983.[G5630] |
| [21]It is necessary, therefore, that one of these men, who have been with us during all the time that our LORD Jesus went in and out among us, |
[21]WhereforeG3767 of theseG5130 menG435 which have companiedG4905[G5631] with usG2254 allG3956 the timeG5550 thatG1722[G3739] the LordG2962 JesusG2424 wentG1831 inG1525[G5627] andG2532 outG1831[G5627] amongG1909 usG2248, |
| [22]Beginning from the baptism of John until the day he ascended from among us, become a partner with us as a witness of his resurrection. |
[22]BeginningG756[G5671] fromG575 the baptismG908 of JohnG2491, untoG2193 that same dayG2250 thatG3739 he was taken upG353[G5681] fromG575 usG2257, mustG1163[G5748] oneG1520 be ordainedG1096[G5635] to be a witnessG3144 withG4862 usG2254 of hisG846 resurrectionG386. |
| [23]So they appointed two: Joseph called Bar'sa-bas who was surnamed Justus, and Mat-thi'as. |
[23]AndG2532 they appointedG2476[G5627] twoG1417, JosephG2501 calledG2564[G5746] BarsabasG923, whoG3739 was surnamedG1941[G5681] JustusG2459, andG2532 MatthiasG3159. |
| [24]And as they prayed, they said, O LORD, you know what is in the hearts of all men; show which of these two you choose, |
[24]AndG2532 they prayedG4336[G5666], and saidG2036[G5627], ThouG4771, LordG2962, which knowest the heartsG2589 of allG3956 men, shewG322[G5657] whetherG3739[G1520] ofG1537 theseG5130 twoG1417 G1586thou hast chosenG5668 |
| [25]That he may receive the lot to the ministry and apostleship, from which Judas has been relieved to go his own way. |
[25]That he may takeG2983[G5629] partG2819 of thisG5026 ministryG1248 andG2532 apostleshipG651, fromG1537 whichG3739 JudasG2455 by transgression fellG3845[G5627], that he might goG4198[G5677] toG1519 his ownG2398 placeG5117. |
| [26]Then they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Mat-thi'as; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles. |
[26]AndG2532 they gave forthG1325[G5656] theirG846 lotsG2819; andG2532 the lotG2819 fellG4098[G5627] uponG1909 MatthiasG3159; andG2532 he was numberedG4785[G5681] withG3326 the elevenG1733 apostlesG652. |
