He said unto them - It is not yours to get to know times or seasons which the Father hath put in his own authority;

And having said these things, as they were beholding, he was lifted up, and a cloud caught him away from their eyes.

Who also said - Men of Galilee! why stand ye looking into heaven? This Jesus who hath been taken up from you into heaven, shall so come, in like manner as ye yourselves have gazed upon him going into heaven.

And, in these days, Peter, standing up in the midst of the brethren, said, - and there was a multitude of names, of one accord, about a hundred and twenty, -

And, praying, they said - Thou Lord! observer of the hearts of all men! shew forth whom thou hast chosen, - of these two, one; -

For, David, hath not ascended into the heavens; but he saith, himself, - Said the Lord unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand,

And, when they heard this, they were pricked to the heart, and said unto Peter and the rest of the apostles - What are we to do, brethren?

And Peter said unto them - Repent ye, and let each one of you be immersed, in the name of Jesus Christ, into the remission of your sins, - and ye shall receive the free-gift of the Holy Spirit;

But Peter looking steadfastly at him - with John - said: Look on us!

But Peter said - Silver and gold, have none, but, what I have, the same, unto thee do give: - In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, Walk!

Moses, indeed, said - A prophet, unto you, shall the Lord God raise up among your brethren, like unto me: unto him, shall ye hearken respecting all things whatsoever he shall speak unto you.

Then Peter, filled with Holy Spirit, said unto them - Ye rulers of the people, and elders!

But, Peter and John, answering, said unto them - Whether it be right in presence of God, unto you, to be hearkening, rather than unto God, judge!

But, when they had been let go, they came unto their own friends , and told as many things as, unto them, the High-priests and Elders, had said.

And, they, having heard, with one accord, uplifted voice unto God, and said - O Sovereign! Thou, art he that made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all things that are herein:

Who, by our father, through means of the Holy Spirit, even by the mouth of David thy servant, said - Unto what end did nations rage, and, peoples, busy themselves with empty things?

But Peter said - Ananias! wherefore did Satan fill thy heart, that thou shouldst deal falsely with the Holy Spirit, and keep back part of the price of the field?

And Peter began to say unto her - Tell me! was it, for so much, ye gave up the field? And she said - Yea! for so much.

And, Peter, said unto her - Why was it agreed by you to put to the proof the Spirit of the Lord? Lo! the feet of them that have buried thy husband, are at the door, and they shall bear thee forth.

But, a messenger of the Lord, by night, opened the doors of the prison; and, leading them out, said -

But Peter and the Apostles, answering, said - It is needful to be yielding obedience unto God rather than unto men: -

And said unto them - Men of Israel! be taking heed unto yourselves, what ye are about to inflict upon these men.

And the Twelve, calling near the throng of the disciples, said - It doth not seem, right, that, we, forsaking the word of God, should be ministering unto tables.

And they set up false witnesses, who said - This man, ceaseth not speaking things against this holy place and the law;

And the High-priest said - Are these things, so?

And, he, said - Brethren and fathers, hearken! The God of Glory, appeared unto our father Abraham, while he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Haran, -

And said unto him - Get thee forth, out of thy land, and from among thy kindred, and come unto the land which, unto thee, I will point out.

And, the nation unto which they shall be in bondage, will, I, judge - said God; and, after these things, shall they come forth, and render divine service unto me, in this place.

And the Lord said unto him - Loose the sandals of thy feet; for, the place whereon thou art standing, is, hallowed ground.

The same, is the Moses that said unto the sons of Israel - A prophet, unto you, will God raise up, from among your brethren, like unto me:

And said - Lo! I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man, standing, on the right hand of God.

And, kneeling down, he cried out with a loud voice - Lord! do not charge against them, this sin. And, having said this, he fell asleep.

And Peter said unto him - Thy silver, with thee, go to destruction! Because, the free-gift of God, thou didst suppose could, with money, be obtained!

And Simon, answering, said - Entreat ye, in my behalf, unto the Lord; that, nothing, may come upon me, of the things whereof ye have spoken!

And the Spirit said unto Philip - Go near, and join thyself unto this chariot!

And, running near, Philip heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said - Dost thou, then, understand what thou art reading?

And, he, said - How indeed should be able - unless someone shall guide me? And he called upon Philip, to come up and sit with him.

And the eunuch, making answer unto Philip, said - I pray thee! Of whom, is the prophet saying this? of himself, or, of some different person?

And he said - Who art thou, Lord? And, he, said - I, am Jesus, whom, thou, art persecuting!

Now there was a certain disciple in Damascus, by name Ananias; and, the Lord, said unto him in a vision - Ananias! And, he, said - Lo! I, am here , Lord!

And the Lord said unto him - Rise! go into the street which is called Straight, and seek, in the house of Judas, one Saul, by name, of Tarsus. For lo! he is praying, -

But the Lord said unto him - Be going thy way; for, a choice vessel unto me, is this man, to bear my name before both thenations and kings, and the sons of Israel;

And Ananias departed, and entered into the house; and, laying upon him his hands, said - Saul, brother! The Lord, hath sent me, - Jesus, who appeared unto thee in the way by which thou wast coming, - that thou mayest recover sight, and be filled with Holy Spirit.

And Peter said unto him - Aeneas! Jesus Christ healeth thee! Arise, and smooth thy bed for thyself. And, straightway, he arose.

But Peter, putting them all outside, knelt down and prayed; and, turning towards the body, said - Tabitha, arise! And she, opening her eyes and seeing Peter, sat up.

And he, looking steadfastly at him, and becoming full of fear, said - What is it, Lord? And he said unto him - Thy prayers and thine alms, have gone up for a memorial before God.

But Peter said - By no means, Lord! because, at no time, have I eaten anything common or unclean.

And, as Peter was pondering over the vision, the Spirit said - Lo! two men, seeking thee.

And Peter, going down unto the men, said - Lo! I, am he whom ye are seeking: What is the cause, for which ye are come?

And they said - Cornelius, a centurion, a man righteous and fearing God, well-attested by the whole nation of the Jews, hath been divinely instructed by a holy messenger to send for thee unto his house, and to hear words from thee.

And said unto the - Ye, well know, how unlawful it is, for, a Jew, to be joining himself or coming in unto one of another race. And yet, unto me, hath God pointed out that I should be calling no man, common or unclean.

And Cornelius said - Four days ago, counting unto this very hour, I was keeping, the ninth hour, as one of prayer, in my house. And lo! a man stood before me, in bright clothing,

And Peter, opening his mouth, said - Of a truth, I find that God is no respecter of persons;

But I said - By no means, Lord, because, a common or unclean thing, hath at no time entered into my mouth.

And the messenger said unto him - Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And he did so. And he saith unto him - Throw around thee thy mantle, and be following me.

And, Peter, coming to himself said - Now, know I, of a truth, that the Lord hath sent forth his messenger, and taken me out of the hand of Herod, and all the expectation of the people of the Jews.

And, recognizing the voice of Peter, by reason of her joy, she opened not the porch, - but, running in, bare tidings that Peter was standing before the porch. But, they, unto her, said - Thou art raving

But, making a sign to them with his hand to hold their peace, he related to them how, the Lord, had brought, him, forth out of the prison; and he said - Carry tidings unto James and the brethren, as to these things. And, going out, he went his way unto some other place.

And, as they were publicly ministering unto the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said - Separate forthwith unto me, Barnabas and Saul, unto the work whereunto I have called them.

Said - O full of all guile, and all recklessness! Son of an adversary! Enemy of all righteousness! - Wilt thou not cease to pervert the straight ways of the Lord?

And Paul, standing up, and making a sign with his hand, said - Ye men of Israel! and such as revere God! hearken: -

And, setting him aside, raised up, David, unto them for king, - of whom he also said, bearing witness - I have found David, the son of Jesse, - a manaccording to my heart, who will do all my will.

And Paul and Barnabas, speaking boldly, said - Unto you, was it necessary, that the word of God should first be spoken: seeing ye are thrusting it from you, and, unworthy, are judging yourselves of the age-abiding life, lo! we turn unto the nations;

Said, with a loud voice - Stand up on thy feet, erect! And he sprang up, and began to walk about.

And, when much discussion had arisen, Peter standing up, said unto them - Brethren! Ye yourselves, well know that, in days long past, amongst you, God chose that, through my mouth, the nations should hear the word of the glad tidings, and believe.

And, after certain days, Paul, said unto Barnabas - Let us now return, and visit the brethren in every city in which we have declared the word of the Lord, and see how they are.

And, this, she continued to do for many days. But Paul, worn out, and turning unto the spirit, said - I charge thee, in the name of Jesus Christ, to come out from her. And it came out the same hour.

and, leading them forward unto the magistrates, said - These men, are exceedingly troubling our city, they, being Jews,

and, leading them forth outside, said - Sirs! what must I be doing, that I may be saved?

And, they, said - Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved, thou, and thy house.

But, Paul, said unto them - Beating us, in public, uncondemned, men that are Romans, they thrust us into prison; - and, now, by stealth, are they thrusting us forth? Nay, verily! but let them come, themselves, and lead us out!

And Paul taking his stand in the midst of the Hill of Mars, said - Ye men of Athens! In every way, how unusually reverent of the demons ye are, I perceive.

For, in him, we live and move and are: as, even some of your own poets, have said - For, his offspring also, we are.

Now, when they heard of raising the dead, some, indeed, began to mock, while, others, said - We will hear thee, concerning this, even again.

But, as they began opposing and defaming, shaking out his garments, he said unto them - Your blood, be upon your own head! Pure, am, I: henceforth, unto the nations, will I go.

And the Lord said by night, through means of a vision, unto Paul - Be not afraid! but be speaking, - and do not hold thy peace;

But, as Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews - If, indeed, it had been some wrong or wicked recklessness, O Jews, with reason, in that case, should I have been bearing with you.

and he said unto them - Holy Spirit, received ye, when ye believed? And they said unto him - Nay! not even whether there is Holy Spirit, did we hear.

And he said - Into what, then, were ye immersed? And, they, said - Unto John's immersion.

Then said Paul - John, immersed with an immersion of repentance, unto the people, saying, that, on him who was coming after him, they should believe, - that is, on Jesus.

But the wicked spirit. Answering, said unto them - Jesus, indeed, I am getting to know, and, Paul, I well-know, - but who are, ye?

gathering whom together, and them who in such things wrought, he said - Men! ye well know that, by this business, we have our prosperity;

And, these things, having said, he dismissed the assembly.

Going down, however, Paul fell upon him, and, embracing him, said - Be not making confusion; for, his soul, is, in him.

And, when they were come to him, he said unto them - Ye yourselves, well know, from the first day when I set foot in Asia, in what manner came to be with you all the time,

In all things, I gave you to understand, that, thus toiling, it behoves to be helping the weak, also to be keeping in mind the words of the Lord Jesus, that, he himself, said - Happy is it, rather to give than to receive!

being most distressed for the word which he had said, - That, no more, should they, his face, behold. And they accompanied him unto the ship.

and, coming unto us, and taking Paul's girdle, he bound his own feet and hands, and said - Thus, saith the Holy Spirit, the man whose this girdle is, shall the Jews thus bind in Jerusalem, and deliver up into the hands of Gentiles.

And, they, having heard, began glorifying God; and they said to him - Thou observest, brother, how many myriads there are among the Jews who have believed, and, all, are zealous for the law.

But, when he was on the point of being taken into the castle, Paul saith unto the captain - Is it allowed me, to say somewhat unto thee? And he said - With Greek, art thou acquainted?

And Paul said - I, indeed, am a Jew, of Tarsus in Cilicia, - a citizen, of no obscure city; but I beseech thee, give me leave to speak unto the people!

And, I, answered - Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me - I, am Jesus the Nazarene, whom, thou, art persecuting!

And said - What shall I do, Lord? And, the Lord, said unto me - Arise, and be going thy way into Damascus, and, there, shall it be told thee of all things which are appointed for thee to do.

coming unto me, and standing over me, said - Saul, brother! look up. And, I, in that very hour, looked up on him.

And he said - The God of our fathers, hath chosen thee to get to know his will, and to see the Righteous One, - and to hear a voice out of his mouth.

And, I, said - Lord! they themselves, well know that I was imprisoning and beating in every synagogue them who were believing on thee.

And he said unto me - -Be taking thy journey; because, I, unto nations afar off, will send thee.

But, when they had stretched him out with straps, Paul said unto the by-standing centurion - A Roman, and uncondemned, is it allowed you to be scourging?

And the captain, coming up, said to him - Tell me! Art, thou, a, Roman? And, he, said - Yea!

And the captain answered - I, for a large sum, this citizenship acquired! And, Paul, said - But, I, am even, free- born!
