* "
For it is written in the Book of Psalms : "
Let his dwelling place be desolate ,
And let no one live in it ';
and , "
Let another take his office .'
* "
Therefore ,
of these men who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us ,
*
beginning from the baptism of John to that day when He was taken up from us ,
one of these must become a witness with us of His resurrection ."
*
And they proposed two :
Joseph called Barsabas ,
who was surnamed Justus ,
and Matthias .
*
And they prayed and said , "
You ,
O Lord ,
who know the hearts of all ,
show which of these two You have chosen
*
to take part in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas by transgression fell ,
that he might go to his own place ."
*
And they cast their lots ,
and the lot fell on Matthias .
And he was numbered with the eleven apostles .
