Acts 1
1 The first account I prepared, Theophilus [God-lover], concerned all that Jesus began to do and to teach
The indeed first account I composed concerning all the things, O Theophilus, of which began Jesus to do both and to teach
2 until the day in which He was taken back, after He had given commandment, by Holy Spirit, to the apostles whom He had chosen;
until the day having given orders to the apostles through [the] Spirit Holy whom He had chosen He was taken up.
3 to whom He also showed Himself alive, after His suffering, by many convincing evidences, appearing to them during forty days and speaking of things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.
to those also He presented Himself alive after the suffering of Him with many proofs, during days forty appearing to them and speaking the [things] concerning the kingdom of God.
4 And being together He directed them not to go away from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, “which you heard from me;
And being assembled together He instructed to them from Jerusalem not to depart, but to await the promise of the Father That which you heard of Me;
5 John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with Holy Spirit not many days from now.”
for John indeed baptized with water, you yourselves however with [the] Spirit will be baptized Holy not after many these days.
6 Well then, being together they asked Him saying, “Lord, are you going to restore the kingdom to Israel at this time?”
Those indeed therefore having come together (were asking *N(k)O*) Him saying; Lord, if at time this are you restoring the kingdom to Israel?
7 So He said to them: “It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has placed within His own authority.
He said then to them; Not yours it is to know times or seasons which the Father put in place by His own authority,
8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you will be witnesses to me—both in Jerusalem, and all Judea and Samaria, and even to the last part of the earth.”
But you will receive power when was coming the Holy Spirit upon you and you will be (My *N(K)O*) witnesses in both Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria and until [the] uttermost part of the earth.
9 Upon saying these things, as they watched, He was lifted up, and a cloud took Him out of their sight.
And these things having said when are looking they He was taken up and a cloud hid Him from the eyes of them.
10 And as they were staring into the sky, while He was going, suddenly two men in white clothing stood beside them;
And as looking intently they were into the heaven as is going He, then behold men two had stood by them in (garments white, *N(k)O*)
11 and they said: “Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into the sky? This very Jesus who is being taken up from you into the sky, He will come again in the precise manner that you observed Him going into the sky.”
who also said; Men Galileans, why have you stood (looking *NK(o)*) into heaven? This Jesus who having been taken up from you into heaven thus will come in that manner you beheld Him going into heaven.
12 They then returned to Jerusalem from the mount called ‘of Olives’, which is near Jerusalem (a Sabbath day's journey).
Then they returned to Jerusalem from [the] mount which is being called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem a Sabbath day’s holding journey.
13 When they had entered [the city] they went up into the upper room where they were staying: namely Peter and James, John and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot, and Judas of James.
And when they had entered into the upper room they went up where they were staying, both Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James [son] of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot and Judas [son] of James.
14 All these were continuing with one purpose in prayer and petition, along with the women, including Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.
These all were steadfastly continuing with one accord in prayer (and in supplication *K*) with the [the] women and Mary with the mother of Jesus and (with *ko*) the brothers of Him.
15 Well in those days Peter stood up in the middle of the disciples (the number of people assembled there was about 120) and said:
And in days these having stood up Peter in [the] midst of the (brothers *N(K)O*) he said — was then [the] number of names together the same (about *N(k)O*) a hundred twenty —
16 “Men, brothers: It was necessary that this Scripture be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before by David's mouth concerning Judas, who was guide to those who arrested Jesus;
Men brothers, it was necessary for to have been fulfilled Scripture (this *k*) which (foretold *NK(o)*) the Spirit Holy through [the] mouth of David concerning Judas the [one] having become guide to those having arrested (*k*) Jesus;
17 in that he was numbered with us and obtained his share in this ministry.”
for numbered he was (among *N(k)O*) us and was allotted the share of the ministry this.
18 (In fact this man acquired a field with the wages of his wickedness, and falling headlong he burst open in the middle, and all his innards were spilled out.
This [man] indeed then acquired a field out of (the *k*) reward of unrighteousness, and headlong having fallen he burst open in [the] middle and gushed out all the intestines of him,
19 And it became known to all who lived in Jerusalem, so that in their own language that field came to be called ‘Akeldama’, that is, ‘Field of Blood’.)
And known it became to all those dwelling in Jerusalem, so that to call the field that [one] in [their] own language of them Akeldama That is Field of Blood.
20 “Because it stands written in Book of Psalms: ‘Let his residence become desolate, and may no one live in it’ and, ‘Let another take his office.’
It has been written for in [the] book of Psalms: should become the homestead of him desolate and not should there be [one] who is dwelling in it,’ and The position of him (take *N(k)O*) another.’
21 So then, of the men who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
It behooves therefore of those [who] were accompanying us men during all [the] time (in *k*) that he came in and he went out among us the Lord Jesus,
22 beginning from the baptism of John until the day when He was taken up from us, of these one must become a witness with us of His resurrection.”
having begun from the baptism of John until the day in which He was taken up from us, a witness of the resurrection of Him with us to become one of these.
23 So they nominated two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.

24 And praying they said: “You, Lord, Knower of all hearts, show which one of these two You have chosen
And having prayed they said; You yourself Lord knower of the hearts of all, do show whom You have chosen of these two one
25 to receive the portion of this ministry and apostleship, out of which Judas turned aside to go into his own place.”
to take the (place *N(k)O*) of the ministry this and apostleship (from *N(k)O*) which turned aside Judas to go to the place [his] own.
26 And they cast their lots, and the lot fell on Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven Apostles.
