< Acts 1 >

1 The indeed first account I composed concerning all the things, O Theophilus, of which began Jesus to do both and to teach
Τὸν μὲν πρῶτον λόγον ἐποιησάμην περὶ πάντων, ὦ Θεόφιλε, ὧν ἤρξατο ˚Ἰησοῦς ποιεῖν τε καὶ διδάσκειν,
2 until the day having given orders to the apostles through [the] Spirit Holy whom He had chosen He was taken up.
ἄχρι ἧς ἡμέρας ἐντειλάμενος τοῖς ἀποστόλοις διὰ ˚Πνεύματος Ἁγίου, οὓς ἐξελέξατο, ἀνελήμφθη·
3 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.
οἷς καὶ παρέστησεν ἑαυτὸν ζῶντα, μετὰ τὸ παθεῖν αὐτὸν, ἐν πολλοῖς τεκμηρίοις διʼ ἡμερῶν τεσσεράκοντα, ὀπτανόμενος αὐτοῖς, καὶ λέγων τὰ περὶ τῆς Βασιλείας τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ.
4 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;
Καὶ συναλιζόμενος, παρήγγειλεν αὐτοῖς, “Ἀπὸ Ἱεροσολύμων μὴ χωρίζεσθαι, ἀλλὰ περιμένειν τὴν ἐπαγγελίαν τοῦ Πατρὸς, ἣν ἠκούσατέ μου.
5 for John indeed baptized with water, you yourselves however with [the] Spirit will be baptized Holy not after many these days.
Ὅτι Ἰωάννης μὲν ἐβάπτισεν ὕδατι, ὑμεῖς δὲ ἐν ˚Πνεύματι βαπτισθήσεσθε Ἁγίῳ, οὐ μετὰ πολλὰς ταύτας ἡμέρας.”
6 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?
Οἱ μὲν οὖν συνελθόντες, ἠρώτων αὐτὸν λέγοντες, “˚Κύριε, εἰ ἐν τῷ χρόνῳ τούτῳ, ἀποκαθιστάνεις τὴν βασιλείαν τῷ Ἰσραήλ;”
7 He said then to them; Not yours it is to know times or seasons which the Father put in place by His own authority,
Εἶπεν δὲ πρὸς αὐτούς, “Οὐχ ὑμῶν ἐστιν γνῶναι χρόνους ἢ καιροὺς, οὓς ὁ Πατὴρ ἔθετο ἐν τῇ ἰδίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ.
8 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.
Ἀλλὰ λήμψεσθε δύναμιν, ἐπελθόντος τοῦ Ἁγίου ˚Πνεύματος ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἔσεσθέ μου μάρτυρες, ἔν τε Ἰερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ἐν πάσῃ τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ, καὶ Σαμαρείᾳ, καὶ ἕως ἐσχάτου τῆς γῆς.”
9 And these things having said when are looking they He was taken up and a cloud hid Him from the eyes of them.
Καὶ ταῦτα εἰπὼν, βλεπόντων αὐτῶν, ἐπήρθη καὶ νεφέλη ὑπέλαβεν αὐτὸν ἀπὸ τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτῶν.
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*)
Καὶ ὡς ἀτενίζοντες ἦσαν εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν, πορευομένου αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἄνδρες δύο παρειστήκεισαν αὐτοῖς ἐν ἐσθήσεσι λευκαῖς,
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.
οἳ καὶ εἶπαν, “Ἄνδρες, Γαλιλαῖοι, τί ἑστήκατε βλέποντες εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν; Οὗτος ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς ὁ ἀναλημφθεὶς ἀφʼ ὑμῶν εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν, οὕτως ἐλεύσεται ὃν τρόπον ἐθεάσασθε αὐτὸν πορευόμενον εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν.”
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem from [the] mount which is being called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem a Sabbath day’s holding journey.
Τότε ὑπέστρεψαν εἰς Ἰερουσαλὴμ ἀπὸ ὄρους τοῦ καλουμένου Ἐλαιῶνος, ὅ ἐστιν ἐγγὺς Ἰερουσαλὴμ, Σαββάτου ἔχον ὁδόν.
13 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.
Καὶ ὅτε εἰσῆλθον, εἰς τὸ ὑπερῷον, ἀνέβησαν οὗ ἦσαν καταμένοντες, ὅ τε Πέτρος καὶ Ἰωάννης καὶ Ἰάκωβος καὶ Ἀνδρέας, Φίλιππος καὶ Θωμᾶς, Βαρθολομαῖος καὶ Μαθθαῖος, Ἰάκωβος Ἁλφαίου, καὶ Σίμων ὁ Ζηλωτὴς, καὶ Ἰούδας Ἰακώβου.
14 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.
Οὗτοι πάντες ἦσαν προσκαρτεροῦντες ὁμοθυμαδὸν τῇ προσευχῇ, σὺν γυναιξὶν καὶ Μαρίᾳ τῇ μητρὶ τοῦ ˚Ἰησοῦ, καὶ τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς αὐτοῦ.
15 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 —
Καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ταύταις, ἀναστὰς Πέτρος ἐν μέσῳ τῶν ἀδελφῶν εἶπεν (ἦν τε ὄχλος ὀνομάτων ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ ὡσεὶ ἑκατὸν εἴκοσι),
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;
“Ἄνδρες, ἀδελφοί, ἔδει πληρωθῆναι τὴν Γραφὴν, ἣν προεῖπεν τὸ ˚Πνεῦμα τὸ Ἅγιον διὰ στόματος Δαυὶδ περὶ Ἰούδα, τοῦ γενομένου ὁδηγοῦ τοῖς συλλαβοῦσιν ˚Ἰησοῦν.
17 for numbered he was (among *N(k)O*) us and was allotted the share of the ministry this.
Ὅτι κατηριθμημένος ἦν ἐν ἡμῖν, καὶ ἔλαχεν τὸν κλῆρον τῆς διακονίας ταύτης.”
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,
(Οὗτος μὲν οὖν ἐκτήσατο χωρίον ἐκ μισθοῦ τῆς ἀδικίας, καὶ πρηνὴς γενόμενος, ἐλάκησεν μέσος, καὶ ἐξεχύθη πάντα τὰ σπλάγχνα αὐτοῦ.
19 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.
Καὶ γνωστὸν ἐγένετο πᾶσι τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν Ἰερουσαλήμ, ὥστε κληθῆναι τὸ χωρίον ἐκεῖνο τῇ διαλέκτῳ αὐτῶν, Ἁκελδαμάχ, τοῦτʼ ἔστιν, “Χωρίον Αἵματος”.)
20 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.’
“Γέγραπται γὰρ ἐν βίβλῳ Ψαλμῶν, ‘Γενηθήτω ἡ ἔπαυλις αὐτοῦ ἔρημος, καὶ μὴ ἔστω ὁ κατοικῶν ἐν αὐτῇ’, καί, ‘Τὴν ἐπισκοπὴν αὐτοῦ, λαβέτω ἕτερος.’
21 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,
Δεῖ οὖν τῶν συνελθόντων ἡμῖν ἀνδρῶν, ἐν παντὶ χρόνῳ ᾧ εἰσῆλθεν καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς ὁ ˚Κύριος ˚Ἰησοῦς,
22 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.
ἀρξάμενος ἀπὸ τοῦ βαπτίσματος Ἰωάννου ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ἧς ἀνελήμφθη ἀφʼ ἡμῶν, μάρτυρα τῆς ἀναστάσεως αὐτοῦ σὺν ἡμῖν, γενέσθαι ἕνα τούτων.”
23 And they put forward two, Joseph who is being called Barsabbas who was called Justus and Matthias.
Καὶ ἔστησαν δύο, Ἰωσὴφ τὸν καλούμενον Βαρσαββᾶν, ὃς ἐπεκλήθη Ἰοῦστος, καὶ Ματθίαν.
24 And having prayed they said; You yourself Lord knower of the hearts of all, do show whom You have chosen of these two one
Καὶ προσευξάμενοι, εἶπαν, “Σὺ ˚Κύριε, καρδιογνῶστα πάντων, ἀνάδειξον ὃν ἐξελέξω ἐκ τούτων τῶν δύο ἕνα,
25 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.
λαβεῖν τὸν τόπον τῆς διακονίας ταύτης καὶ ἀποστολῆς, ἀφʼ ἧς παρέβη Ἰούδας, πορευθῆναι εἰς τὸν τόπον τὸν ἴδιον.”
26 And they gave lots (to them *N(k)O*) and fell the lot on Matthias and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
Καὶ ἔδωκαν κλήρους αὐτοῖς, καὶ ἔπεσεν ὁ κλῆρος ἐπὶ Ματθίαν, καὶ συγκατεψηφίσθη μετὰ τῶν ἕνδεκα ἀποστόλων.
