And as they were gazing into heaven, as he was going, behold, also two men stood by them in white clothing,

who also said, Men of Galilee, why do ye stand looking into heaven? This Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven, shall thus come in the manner in which ye have beheld him going into heaven.

(This man then indeed got a field with the reward of iniquity, and, having fallen down headlong, burst in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.

It is necessary therefore, that of the men who have assembled with us all the time in which the Lord Jesus came in and went out among us,

Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, pious men, from every nation of those under heaven.

And they were all amazed and in perplexity, saying one to another, What would this mean?

But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice and spoke forth to them, Men of Judaea, and all ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give heed to my words:

And it shall be in the last days, saith God, that 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 elders shall dream with dreams;

the sun shall be changed to darkness and the moon to blood, before the great and gloriously appearing day of the Lord come.

Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus the Nazaraean, a man borne witness to by God to you by works of power and wonders and signs, which God wrought by him in your midst, as yourselves know

him, given up by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye, by the hand of lawless men, have crucified and slain.

and a certain man who was lame from his mother's womb was being carried, whom they placed every day at the gate of the temple called Beautiful, to ask alms of those who were going into the temple;

And Peter, seeing it, answered the people, Men of Israel, why are ye astonished at this? or why do ye gaze on us as if we had by our own power or piety made him to walk?

But ye denied the holy and righteous one, and asked that a man that was a murderer should be granted to you;

And, by faith in his name, his name has made this man strong whom ye behold and know; and the faith which is by him has given him this complete soundness in the presence of you all.

But many of those who had heard the word believed; and the number of the men had become about five thousand.

if we this day are called upon to answer as to the good deed done to the infirm man, how he has been healed,

be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazaraean, whom ye have crucified, whom God has raised from among the dead, by him this man stands here before you sound in body.

And salvation is in none other, for neither is there another name under heaven which is given among men by which we must be saved.

But seeing the boldness of Peter and John, and perceiving that they were unlettered and uninstructed men, they wondered; and they recognised them that they were with Jesus.

And beholding the man who had been healed standing with them, they had nothing to reply;

saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed an evident sign has come to pass through their means is manifest to all that inhabit Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.

But that it be not further spread among the people, let us threaten them severely no longer to speak to any man in this name.

for the man on whom this sign of healing had taken place was above forty years old.

being possessed of land, having sold it, brought the money and laid it at the feet of the apostles.

But a certain man, Ananias by name, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,

While it remained did it not remain to thee? and sold, was it not in thine own power? Why is it that thou hast purposed this thing in thine heart? Thou hast not lied to men, but to God.

And the young men, rising up, swathed him up for burial, and having carried him out, buried him.

and believers were more than ever added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women;)

And some one coming reported to them, Lo, the men whom ye put in the prison are in the temple, standing and teaching the people.

saying, We strictly enjoined you not to teach in this name: and lo, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and purpose to bring upon us the blood of this man.

But Peter answering, and the apostles, said, God must be obeyed rather than men.

But a certain man, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, held in honour of all the people, rose up in the council, and commanded to put the men out for a short while,

and said to them, Men of Israel, take heed to yourselves as regards these men what ye are going to do;

for before these days Theudas rose up, alleging himself to be somebody, to whom a number of men, about four hundred, were joined; who was slain, and all, as many as obeyed him, were dispersed and came to nothing.

And now I say to you, Withdraw from these men and let them alone, for if this counsel or this work have its origin from men, it will be destroyed;

And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte of Antioch,

And pious men buried Stephen and made great lamentation over him.

But Saul ravaged the assembly, entering into the houses one after another, and dragging off both men and women delivered them up to prison.

But a certain man, by name Simon, had been before in the city, using magic arts, and astonishing the nation of Samaria, saying that himself was some great one.

But when they believed Philip announcing the glad tidings concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptised, both men and women.

And Peter said to him, Thy money go with thee to destruction, because thou hast thought that the gift of God can be obtained by money.

And he rose up and went. And lo, an Ethiopian, a eunuch, a man in power under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to worship at Jerusalem,

But a certain man in Caesarea, by name Cornelius, a centurion of the band called Italic,

And now send men to Joppa and fetch Simon, who is surnamed Peter.

And as Peter doubted in himself what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold also the men who were sent by Cornelius, having sought out the house of Simon, stood at the gate,

But as Peter continued pondering over the vision, the Spirit said to him, Behold, three men seek thee;

And Peter going down to the men said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what is the cause for which ye come?

And they said, Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous man, and fearing God, and borne witness to by the whole nation of the Jews, has been divinely instructed by a holy angel to send for thee to his house, and hear words from thee.

But Peter made him rise, saying, Rise up: I myself also am a man.

And he said to them, Ye know how it is unlawful for a Jew to be joined or come to one of a strange race, and to me God has shewn to call no man common or unclean.

And Cornelius said, Four days ago I had been fasting unto this hour, and the ninth I was praying in my house, and lo, a man stood before me in bright clothing,

and lo, immediately three men were at the house in which I was, sent to me from Caesarea.

And the Spirit said to me to go with them, nothing doubting. And there went with me these six brethren also, and we entered into the house of the man,

and he related to us how he had seen the angel in his house, standing and saying to him, Send men to Joppa and fetch Simon, who is surnamed Peter,

And the people cried out, A god's voice and not a man's.

And having passed through the whole island as far as Paphos, they found a certain man a magician, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesus,

who was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, an intelligent man. He, having called Barnabas and Saul to him, desired to hear the word of God.

And then they asked for a king, and God gave to them Saul, son of Kis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, during forty years.

And having removed him he raised up to them David for king, of whom also bearing witness he said, I have found David, the son of Jesse, a man after my heart, who shall do all my will.

Of this man's seed according to promise has God brought to Israel a Saviour, Jesus;

Be it known unto you, therefore, brethren, that through this man remission of sins is preached to you,

And a certain man in Lystra, impotent in his feet, sat, being lame from his mother's womb, who had never walked.

This man heard Paul speaking, who, fixing his eyes on him, and seeing that he had faith to be healed,

But the crowds, who saw what Paul had done, lifted up their voices in Lycaonian, saying, The gods, having made themselves like men, are come down to us.

and saying, Men, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, preaching to you to turn from these vanities to the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all things in them;
