ylt @Acts:1:1 @The former account , indeed , I made concerning all things , O Theophilus , that Jesus began both to do and to teach , ylt @Acts:1:2 @till the day in which , having given command , through the Holy Spirit , to the apostles whom he did choose out , he was taken up , ylt @Acts:1:3 @to whom also he did present himself alive after his suffering , in many certain proofs , through forty days being seen by them , and speaking the things concerning the reign of God . ylt @Acts:1:4 @And being assembled together with them , he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem , but to wait for the promise of the Father , which , [saith he ,] 'Ye did hear of me ; ylt @Acts:1:5 @because John , indeed , baptized with water , and ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit -- after not many days .' ylt @Acts:1:6 @They , therefore , indeed , having come together , were questioning him , saying , 'Lord , dost thou at this time restore the reign to Israel ?' ylt @Acts:1:7 @and he said unto them , 'It is not yours to know times or seasons that the Father did appoint in His own authority ; ylt @Acts:1:8 @but ye shall receive power at the coming of the Holy Spirit upon you , and ye shall be witnesses to me both in Jerusalem , and in all Judea , and Samaria , and unto the end of the earth .' ylt @Acts:1:9 @And these things having said -- they beholding -- he was taken up , and a cloud did receive him up from their sight ; ylt @Acts:1:10 @and as they were looking stedfastly to the heaven in his going on , then , lo , two men stood by them in white apparel , ylt @Acts:1:11 @who also said , 'Men , Galileans , why do ye stand gazing into the heaven ? this Jesus who was received up from you into the heaven , shall so come in what manner ye saw him going on to the heaven .' ylt @Acts:1:12 @Then did they return to Jerusalem from the mount that is called of Olives , that is near Jerusalem , a sabbath 's journey ; ylt @Acts:1:13 @and when they came in , they went up to the upper room , where were abiding both Peter , and James , and John , and Andrew , Philip , and Thomas , Bartholomew , and Matthew , James , of Alphaeus , and Simon the Zelotes , and Judas , of James ; ylt @Acts:1:14 @these all were continuing with one accord in prayer and supplication , with women , and Mary the mother of Jesus , and with his brethren . ylt @Acts:1:15 @And in these days , Peter having risen up in the midst of the disciples , said , (the multitude also of the names at the same place was , as it were , an hundred and twenty ,) ylt @Acts:1:16 @'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 , ylt @Acts:1:17 @because he was numbered among us , and did receive the share in this ministration , ylt @Acts:1:18 @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 , ylt @Acts:1:19 @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 , ylt @Acts:1:20 @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 . ylt @Acts:1:21 @'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 , ylt @Acts:1:22 @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 .' ylt @Acts:1:23 @And they set two , Joseph called Barsabas , who was surnamed Justus , and Matthias , ylt @Acts:1:24 @and having prayed , they said , 'Thou , Lord , who art knowing the heart of all , shew which one thou didst choose of these two ylt @Acts:1:25 @to receive the share of this ministration and apostleship , from which Judas , by transgression , did fall , to go on to his proper place ;' ylt @Acts:1:26 @and they gave their lots , and the lot fell upon Matthias , and he was numbered with the eleven apostles . ylt @Acts:2:1 @And in the day of the Pentecost being fulfilled , they were all with one accord at the same place , ylt @Acts:2:2 @and there came suddenly out of the heaven a sound as of a bearing violent breath , and it filled all the house where they were sitting , ylt @Acts:2:3 @and there appeared to them divided tongues , as it were of fire ; it sat also upon each one of them , ylt @Acts:2:4 @and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit , and began to speak with other tongues , according as the Spirit was giving them to declare . ylt @Acts:2:5 @And there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews , devout men from every nation of those under the heaven , ylt @Acts:2:6 @and the rumour of this having come , the multitude came together , and was confounded , because they were each one hearing them speaking in his proper dialect , ylt @Acts:2:7 @and they were all amazed , and did wonder , saying one unto another , 'Lo , are not all these who are speaking Galileans ? ylt @Acts:2:8 @and how do we hear , each in our proper dialect , in which we were born ? ylt @Acts:2:9 @Parthians , and Medes , and Elamites , and those dwelling in Mesopotamia , in Judea also , and Cappadocia , Pontus , and Asia , ylt @Acts:2:10 @Phrygia also , and Pamphylia , Egypt , and the parts of Libya , that [are ] along Cyrene , and the strangers of Rome , both Jews and proselytes , ylt @Acts:2:11 @Cretes and Arabians , we did hear them speaking in our tongues the great things of God .' ylt @Acts:2:12 @And they were all amazed , and were in doubt , saying one unto another , 'What would this wish to be ?' ylt @Acts:2:13 @and others mocking said , -- 'They are full of sweet wine ;' ylt @Acts:2:14 @and Peter having stood up with the eleven , lifted up his voice and declared to them , 'Men , Jews ! and all those dwelling in Jerusalem , let this be known to you , and harken to my sayings , ylt @Acts:2:15 @for these are not drunken , as ye take it up , for it is the third hour of the day . ylt @Acts:2:16 @'But this is that which hath been spoken through the prophet Joel : ylt @Acts:2:17 @And it shall be in the last days , saith God , I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh , and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy , and your young men shall see visions , and your old men shall dream dreams ; ylt @Acts:2:18 @and also upon My men-servants , and upon My maid-servants , in those days , I will pour out of My Spirit , and they shall prophesy ; ylt @Acts:2:19 @and I will give wonders in the heaven above , and signs upon the earth beneath -- blood , and fire , and vapour of smoke , ylt @Acts:2:20 @the sun shall be turned to darkness , and the moon to blood , before the coming of the day of the Lord -- the great and illustrious ; ylt @Acts:2:21 @and it shall be , every one -- whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord , he shall be saved . ylt @Acts:2:22 @'Men , Israelites ! hear these words , Jesus the Nazarene , a man approved of God among you by mighty works , and wonders , and signs , that God did through him in the midst of you , according as also ye yourselves have known ; ylt @Acts:2:23 @this one , by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God , being given out , having taken by lawless hands , having crucified -- ye did slay ; ylt @Acts:2:24 @whom God did raise up , having loosed the pains of the death , because it was not possible for him to be held by it , ylt @Acts:2:25 @for David saith in regard to him : I foresaw the Lord always before me -- because He is on my right hand -- that I may not be moved ; ylt @Acts:2:26 @because of this was my heart cheered , and my tongue was glad , and yet -- my flesh also shall rest on hope , ylt @Acts:2:27 @because Thou wilt not leave my soul to hades , nor wilt Thou give Thy Kind One to see corruption ; ylt @Acts:2:28 @Thou didst make known to me ways of life , Thou shalt fill me with joy with Thy countenance . ylt @Acts:2:29 @'Men , brethren ! it is permitted to speak with freedom unto you concerning the patriarch David , that he both died and was buried , and his tomb is among us unto this day ; ylt @Acts:2:30 @a prophet , therefore , being , and knowing that with an oath God did swear to him , out of the fruit of his loins , according to the flesh , to raise up the Christ , to sit upon his throne , ylt @Acts:2:31 @having foreseen , he did speak concerning the rising again of the Christ , that his soul was not left to hades , nor did his flesh see corruption . ylt @Acts:2:32 @'This Jesus did God raise up , of which we are all witnesses ; ylt @Acts:2:33 @at the right hand then of God having been exalted -- also the promise of the Holy Spirit having received from the Father -- he was shedding forth this , which now ye see and hear ; ylt @Acts:2:34 @for David did not go up to the heavens , and he saith himself : The Lord saith to my lord , Sit thou at my right hand , ylt @Acts:2:35 @till I make thy foes thy footstool ; ylt @Acts:2:36 @assuredly , therefore , let all the house of Israel know , that both Lord and Christ did God make him -- this Jesus whom ye did crucify .' ylt @Acts:2:37 @And having heard , they were pricked to the heart ; they say also to Peter , and to the rest of the apostles , 'What shall we do , men , brethren ?' ylt @Acts:2:38 @and Peter said unto them , 'Reform , and be baptized each of you on the name of Jesus Christ , to remission of sins , and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit , ylt @Acts:2:39 @for to you is the promise , and to your children , and to all those afar off , as many as the Lord our God shall call .' ylt @Acts:2:40 @Also with many more other words he was testifying and exhorting , saying , 'Be saved from this perverse generation ;' ylt @Acts:2:41 @then those , indeed , who did gladly receive his word were baptized , and there were added on that day , as it were , three thousand souls , ylt @Acts:2:42 @and they were continuing stedfastly in the teaching of the apostles , and the fellowship , and the breaking of the bread , and the prayers . ylt @Acts:2:43 @And fear came on every soul , many wonders also and signs were being done through the apostles , ylt @Acts:2:44 @and all those believing were at the same place , and had all things common , ylt @Acts:2:45 @and the possessions and the goods they were selling , and were parting them to all , according as any one had need . ylt @Acts:2:46 @Daily also continuing with one accord in the temple , breaking also at every house bread , they were partaking of food in gladness and simplicity of heart , ylt @Acts:2:47 @praising God , and having favour with all the people , and the Lord was adding those being saved every day to the assembly . ylt @Acts:3:1 @And Peter and John were going up at the same time to the temple , at the hour of the prayer , the ninth [hour ],
