< Acts 1 >
1 The former narrative I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus both did and taught from the beginning
primum quidem sermonem feci de omnibus o Theophile quae coepit Iesus facere et docere
2 until the day in which, after he had through the Holy Spirit given commandments to the apostles whom he had chosen, he was taken up;
usque in diem qua praecipiens apostolis per Spiritum Sanctum quos elegit adsumptus est
3 to whom also he showed himself living, after he had suffered, by many sure proofs, appearing to them during forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.
quibus et praebuit se ipsum vivum post passionem suam in multis argumentis per dies quadraginta apparens eis et loquens de regno Dei
4 And while in assembly with them, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for what had been promised by the Father, which [[said he]] ye heard from me;
et convescens praecepit eis ab Hierosolymis ne discederent sed expectarent promissionem Patris quam audistis per os meum
5 for John indeed baptized with water, but ye will be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days hence.
quia Iohannes quidem baptizavit aqua vos autem baptizabimini Spiritu Sancto non post multos hos dies
6 They therefore, having come together, asked him, saying, Lord, art thou at this time about to restore the kingdom to Israel?
igitur qui convenerant interrogabant eum dicentes Domine si in tempore hoc restitues regnum Israhel
7 But he said to them, It belongeth not to you to know times or seasons, which the Father appointed by his own authority.
dixit autem eis non est vestrum nosse tempora vel momenta quae Pater posuit in sua potestate
8 But ye will receive power when the Holy Spirit hath come upon you; and ye will be my witnesses, both in Jerusalem and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and to the end of the earth.
sed accipietis virtutem supervenientis Spiritus Sancti in vos et eritis mihi testes in Hierusalem et in omni Iudaea et Samaria et usque ad ultimum terrae
9 And having thus spoken, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
et cum haec dixisset videntibus illis elevatus est et nubes suscepit eum ab oculis eorum
10 And while they were looking earnestly into heaven as he went up, lo! two men stood by them in white apparel,
cumque intuerentur in caelum eunte illo ecce duo viri adstiterunt iuxta illos in vestibus albis
11 who said, Men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This Jesus, who hath been taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same manner in which ye beheld him going into heaven.
qui et dixerunt viri galilaei quid statis aspicientes in caelum hic Iesus qui adsumptus est a vobis in caelum sic veniet quemadmodum vidistis eum euntem in caelum
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem, from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, within a sabbath-day's journey.
tunc reversi sunt Hierosolymam a monte qui vocatur Oliveti qui est iuxta Hierusalem sabbati habens iter
13 And when they had come in, they went up into the upper room where they were making their abode, namely, Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the zealot, and Judas the brother of James.
et cum introissent in cenaculum ascenderunt ubi manebant Petrus et Iohannes Iacobus et Andreas Philippus et Thomas Bartholomeus et Mattheus Iacobus Alphei et Simon Zelotes et Iudas Iacobi
14 These all continued with one accord in prayer, with women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.
hii omnes erant perseverantes unianimiter in oratione cum mulieribus et Maria matre Iesu et fratribus eius
15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the brethren, and said, (the number of the names together was about one hundred and twenty, )
et in diebus illis exsurgens Petrus in medio fratrum dixit erat autem turba nominum simul fere centum viginti
16 Brethren, it was necessary that this scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit through the mouth of David spoke before concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus.
viri fratres oportet impleri scripturam quam praedixit Spiritus Sanctus per os David de Iuda qui fuit dux eorum qui conprehenderunt Iesum
17 For he was numbered among us, and obtained the allotment of this ministry.
quia connumeratus erat in nobis et sortitus est sortem ministerii huius
18 Now this man purchased a field with the wages of the iniquity; and falling headlong he burst asunder in the middle, 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 became known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that that field is called in their own tongue, Aceldamach, that is, Field of Blood.
et notum factum est omnibus habitantibus Hierusalem ita ut appellaretur ager ille lingua eorum Acheldemach hoc est ager Sanguinis
20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, “Let his habitation be made desolate, and let no one dwell therein;” and, “Let another take his office.”
scriptum est enim in libro Psalmorum fiat commoratio eius deserta et non sit qui inhabitet in ea et episcopatum eius accipiat alius
21 Of these men, therefore, who accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
oportet ergo ex his viris qui nobiscum congregati sunt in omni tempore quo intravit et exivit inter nos Dominus Iesus
22 from the baptism of John until the day when he was taken up from us, must one be made a witness with us of his resurrection.
incipiens a baptismate Iohannis usque in diem qua adsumptus est a nobis testem resurrectionis eius nobiscum fieri unum ex istis
23 And they proposed two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
et statuerunt duos Ioseph qui vocabatur Barsabban qui cognominatus est Iustus et Matthiam
24 And they prayed saying, Thou, Lord, who knowest the hearts of all men, show which of these two thou hast chosen
et orantes dixerunt tu Domine qui corda nosti omnium ostende quem elegeris ex his duobus unum
25 to take the part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell away, that he might go to his own place.
accipere locum ministerii huius et apostolatus de quo praevaricatus est Iudas ut abiret in locum suum
26 And they cast lots for them; and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
et dederunt sortes eis et cecidit sors super Matthiam et adnumeratus est cum undecim apostolis
