Acts 1
1 The former treatise (logos) have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,
Primum quidem sermonem feci de omnibus, O Theophile, quæ cœpit Iesus facere, et docere
2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Spirit (pneuma) had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
usque in diem, qua præcipiens Apostolis per Spiritum Sanctum, quos elegit, assumptus est:
3 To whom also he showed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
quibus et præbuit seipsum vivum post Passionem suam in multis argumentis, per dies quadraginta apparens eis, et loquens de regno Dei.
4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, says he, all of you have heard of me.
Et convescens, præcepit eis ab Ierosolymis ne discederent, sed expectarent Promissionem Patris, quam audistis (inquit) per os meum:
5 For John truly baptized with water; but all of you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit (pneuma) not many days behind.
quia Ioannes quidem baptizavit aqua, vos autem baptizabimini Spiritu Sancto non post multos hos dies.
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, will you at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
Igitur qui convenerant, interrogabant eum, dicentes: Domine, si in tempore hoc restitues regnum Israel?
7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father has put in his own power.
Dixit autem eis: Non est vestrum nosse tempora vel momenta, quæ Pater posuit in sua potestate:
8 But all of you shall receive power, after that the Holy Spirit (pneuma) has come upon you: and all of you shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
sed accipietis virtutem supervenientis Spiritus Sancti in vos, et eritis mihi testes in Ierusalem, et in omni Iudæa, et Samaria, et usque ad ultimum terræ.
9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
Et cum hæc dixisset, videntibus illis, elevatus est: et nubes suscepit eum ab oculis eorum.
10 And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
Cumque intuerentur in cælum euntem illum, ecce duo viri astiterunt iuxta illos in vestibus albis,
11 Which also said, All of you men of Galilee, why stand all of you gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as all of you have seen him go into heaven.
qui et dixerunt: Viri Galilæi, quid statis aspicientes in cælum? Hic Iesus, qui assumptus est a vobis in cælum, sic veniet quemadmodum vidistis eum euntem in cælum.
12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.
Tunc reversi sunt Ierosolymam a monte, qui vocatur Oliveti, qui est iuxta Ierusalem, Sabbati habens iter.
13 And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.
Et cum introissent in cœnaculum, ascenderunt ubi manebant Petrus, et Ioannes, Iacobus, et Andreas, Philippus, et Thomas, Bartholomæus, et Matthæus, Iacobus Alphæi, et Simon Zelotes, et Iudas Iacobi.
14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
Hi omnes erant perseverantes unanimiter in oratione cum mulieribus, et Maria matre Iesu, et fratribus eius.
15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about an hundred and twenty, )
In diebus illis exurgens Petrus in medio fratrum dixit (erat autem turba hominum simul, fere centum viginti):
16 Men and brethren, this scripture must essentially have been fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit (pneuma) by the mouth of David spoke before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus.
Viri fratres, oportet impleri Scripturam, quam prædixit Spiritus Sanctus per os David de Iuda, qui fuit dux eorum, qui comprehenderunt Iesum:
17 For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.
qui connumeratus erat in nobis, et sortitus est sortem ministerii huius.
18 Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.
Et hic quidem possedit agrum de mercede iniquitatis, et suspensus crepuit medius: et diffusa sunt omnia viscera eius.
19 And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; insomuch as that field is called in their proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, The field of blood.
Et notum factum est omnibus habitantibus Ierusalem, ita ut appellaretur ager ille, lingua eorum, Haceldama, hoc est, Ager Sanguinis.
20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.
Scriptum est enim in libro Psalmorum: Fiat commoratio eorum deserta, et non sit qui inhabitet in ea: et episcopatum eius accipiat alter.
21 Wherefore of these men which have companied with us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Oportet ergo ex his viris, qui nobiscum sunt congregati in omni tempore, quo intravit et exivit inter nos Dominus Iesus,
22 Beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that he was taken up from us, must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection.
incipiens a baptismate Ioannis usque in diem, qua assumptus est a nobis, testem Resurrectionis eius nobiscum fieri unum ex istis.
23 And they appointed two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
Et statuerunt duos, Ioseph, qui vocabatur Barsabas, qui cognominatus est Iustus: et Mathiam.
24 And they prayed, and said, You, Lord, which know the hearts of all men, show whether of these two you have chosen,
Et orantes dixerunt: Tu Domine, qui corda nosti omnium, ostende, quem elegeris ex his duobus unum
25 That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.
accipere locum ministerii huius, et apostolatus, de quo prævaricatus est Iudas ut abiret in locum suum.
26 And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
Et dederunt sortes eis, et cecidit sors super Mathiam, et annumeratus est cum undecim Apostolis.
