but ye will receive power, the Holy Spirit having come upon you, and ye shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.

10 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*)
And as they were gazing into heaven, as he was going, behold, also two men stood by them in white clothing,
11 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.
who also said, Men of Galilee, why do ye stand looking into heaven? This Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven, shall thus come in the manner in which ye have beheld him going into heaven.

16 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;
Brethren, it was necessary that the scripture should have been fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before, by the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus;

for he was numbered amongst us, and had received a part in this service.
18 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,
(This [man] then indeed got a field with [the] reward of iniquity, and, having fallen down headlong, burst in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.

And it was known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that that field was called in their own dialect Aceldama; that is, field of blood.)

It is necessary therefore, that of the men who have assembled with us all [the] time in which the Lord Jesus came in and went out among us,
