1:1 The
former
treatise
haue
I
made,
O
Theophilus,
of
al
that
Iesus
began
both
to
doe
and
teach,
1:2 Untill
the
day
in
which
hee
was
taken
vp,
after
that
he
through
the
holy
Ghost
had
giuen
commaundements
vnto
the
Apostles,
whom
he
had
chosen.
1:3 To
whom
also
he
shewed
himselfe
aliue
after
his
passion,
by
many
infallible
proofes,
being
seene
of
them
fourty
dayes,
and
speaking
of
the
things
perteining
to
the
kingdome
of
God:
1:4 And
being
assembled
together
with
them,
commanded
them
that
they
should
not
depart
from
Hierusalem,
but
wait
for
the
promise
of
the
Father,
which,
saith
he,
ye
haue
heard
of
me.
1:5 For
Iohn
truely
baptized
with
water,
but
ye
shall
be
baptized
with
the
holy
Ghost,
not
many
dayes
hence.
1:6 When
they
therefore
were
come
together,
they
asked
of
him,
saying,
Lord,
wilt
thou
at
this
time
restore
againe
the
kingdome
to
Israel
1:7 And
he
said
vnto
them,
It
is
not
for
you
to
knowe
the
times
or
the
seasons,
which
the
Father
hath
put
in
his
owne
power.
1:8 But
ye
shall
receiue
power
after
that
the
holy
Ghost
is
come
vpon
you,
and
ye
shall
be
witnesses
vnto
me,
both
in
Hierusalem,
and
in
all
Iudea,
and
in
Samaria,
and
vnto
the
vttermost
part
of
the
earth.
1:9 And
when
hee
had
spoken
these
things,
while
they
beheld,
hee
was
taken
vp,
and
a
cloud
receiued
him
out
of
their
sight.
1:10 And
while
they
looked
stedfastly
toward
heauen,
as
he
went
vp,
behold,
two
men
stood
by
them
in
white
apparell,
1:11 Which
also
said,
Yee
men
of
Galililee,
why
stand
yee
gazing
vp
into
heauen
This
same
Iesus,
which
is
taken
vp
from
you
into
heauen,
shall
so
come,
in
like
maner
as
yee
haue
seene
him
goe
into
heauen.
1:12 Then
returned
they
vnto
Hierusalem,
from
the
mount
called
Oliuet,
which
is
from
Hierusalem
a
Sabbath
dayes
iourney.
1:13 And
when
they
were
come
in,
they
went
vp
into
an
vpper
roome,
where
abode
both
Peter
&
Iames,
&
Iohn,
and
Andrew,
Philip,
and
Thomas,
Bartholomew,
and
Matthew,
Iames
the
sonne
of
Alpheus,
and
Simon
Zelotes,
and
Iudas
the
brother
of
Iames.
1:14 These
all
continued
with
one
accord
in
prayer
and
supplication,
with
the
women,
and
Mary
the
mother
of
Iesus,
and
with
his
brethen.
1:15 And
in
those
dayes
Peter
stood
vp
in
the
mids
of
the
disciples,
and
said,
(The
number
of
names
together
were
about
an
hundred
and
twentie)
1:16 Men
and
brethren,
This
Scripture
must
needs
haue
beene
fulfilled,
which
the
holy
Ghost
by
the
mouth
of
Dauid
spake
before
concerning
Iudas,
which
was
guide
to
them
that
took
Iesus.
1:17 For
hee
was
numbred
with
vs,
and
had
obtained
part
of
this
ministerie.
1:18 Now
this
man
purchased
a
field
with
the
reward
of
iniquity,
and
falling
headlong,
he
burst
asunder
in
the
mids,
and
all
his
bowels
gushed
out.
1:19 And
it
was
knowen
vnto
all
the
dwellers
at
Hierusalem,
insomuch
as
that
field
is
called
in
their
proper
tongue,
Aceldama,
that
is
to
say,
The
field
of
blood.
1:20 For
it
is
written
in
the
booke
of
Psalmes,
Let
his
habitation
be
desolate,
and
let
no
man
dwell
therein:
And
his
Bishopricke
let
another
take.
1:21 Wherefore
of
these
men
which
haue
companied
with
vs
all
the
time
that
the
Lord
Iesus
went
in
and
out
among
vs,
1:22 Beginning
from
the
baptisme
of
Iohn,
vnto
that
same
day
that
he
was
taken
vp
from
vs,
must
one
be
ordained
to
be
a
witnesse
with
vs
of
his
resurrection.
1:23 And
they
appointed
two,
Ioseph
called
Barsabas,
who
was
surnamed
Iustus,
and
Matthias.
1:24 And
they
prayed,
and
said,
Thou
Lord,
which
knowest
the
hearts
of
all
men,
shew
whether
of
these
two
thou
hast
chosen,
1:25 That
hee
may
take
part
of
this
ministerie
and
Apostleship,
from
which
Iudas
by
transgression
fell,
that
hee
might
goe
to
his
owne
place.
1:26 And
they
gaue
foorth
their
lots,
and
the
lot
fell
vpon
Matthias,
and
hee
was
numbred
with
the
eleuen
Apostles.
