Prologue

1 The former account I made, O aTheophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,  
2 auntil the day in which1 He was taken up, after He through the Holy Spirit bhad given commandments to the apostles whom He had chosen,  
3 ato whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many1 infallible proofs, being seen by them during forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.  

The Holy Spirit Promised

4 aAnd being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, “which,” He said, “you have bheard from Me;  
5 afor John truly baptized with water, bbut you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”  
6 Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?”
7 And He said to them, a“It is not for you to bknow times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority.  
8 aBut you shall receive power bwhen the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and cyou shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and dSamaria, and to the eend of the earth.”  

Jesus Ascends to Heaven

9 aNow when He had spoken these things, while they watched, bHe was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight.  
10 And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them ain white apparel,  
11 who also said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, awill so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.”
