Acts 1:2-12

Godbey(i) 2 from the day on which, having given commandment through the Holy Ghost to the apostles whom He had chosen, He was received up. 3 To whom He also, after He suffered, manifested Himself alive in many testimonials, being seen by them forty days, and speaking the things concerning the kingdom of God: 4 and being assembled together with them, He commanded them, Not to depart from Jerusalem, but to await the promise of the Father which ye heard from me; 5 that John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence. 6 Therefore indeed having assembled, they asked Him saying, Lord, do you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel? 7 He said to them; It is not your province, to know the times or seasons, which the Father placed in His own authority. 8 But you shall receive the power of the Holy Ghost having come upon you, and shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and all Judea, and in Samaria, and into the extremity of the earth. 9 And having spoken these words, they looking, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him from their eyes. 10 And while they were gazing up into the heaven, He going, and behold, two men stood by them in white garments, who also said, 11 Ye Galilean men, why stand you looking up into the heaven? this same Jesus, the One having been received up into the heaven, will so come in the manner in which you saw Him going up into the heaven. 12 Then they returned into Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, being a journey of a Sabbath day.
