Acts 1:16-26

YLT(i) 16 `Men, brethren, it behoved this Writing that it be fulfilled that beforehand the Holy Spirit spake through the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus, 17 because he was numbered among us, and did receive the share in this ministration, 18 this one, indeed, then, purchased a field out of the reward of unrighteousness, and falling headlong, burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed forth, 19 and it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem, insomuch that that place is called, in their proper dialect, Aceldama, that is, field of blood, 20 for it hath been written in the book of Psalms: Let his lodging-place become desolate, and let no one be dwelling in it, and his oversight let another take. 21 `It behoveth, therefore, of the men who did go with us during all the time in which the Lord Jesus went in and went out among us, 22 beginning from the baptism of John, unto the day in which he was received up from us, one of these to become with us a witness of his rising again.' 23 And they set two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias, 24 and having prayed, they said, `Thou, Lord, who art knowing the heart of all, shew which one thou didst choose of these two 25 to receive the share of this ministration and apostleship, from which Judas, by transgression, did fall, to go on to his proper place;' 26 and they gave their lots, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
