吩咐门徒等候圣灵

提阿非罗先生:我已经写了前书,叙述耶稣开始所行所教的一切, 一直到他借着圣灵吩咐所拣选的使徒之后,被接上升的日子为止。 他受难以后,用许多凭据向使徒显示自己是活着的。他向使徒显现,并且讲论 神的国的事,有四十天之久。 耶稣和他们一同吃饭的时候,吩咐他们不要离开耶路撒冷,说:“你们要等候父的应许,就是你们听我讲过的, 约翰是用水施洗,但再过几天,你们要受圣灵的洗。”

耶稣升天

他们聚集的时候,问耶稣说:“主啊,你要在这时候使以色列复国吗?” 耶稣说:“父凭着自己的权柄所定的时间或日期,你们不必知道。 可是圣灵降临在你们身上,你们就必领受能力,并且要在耶路撒冷、犹太全地、撒玛利亚,直到地极,作我的见证人。” 说完了这话,他们还在看的时候,他被接上升,有一朵云把他接去,就看不见他了。 10 当他往上升,他们定睛望天的时候,忽然有两个人,身穿白衣,站在他们旁边, 11 说:“加利利人哪,为甚么站着望天呢?这位被接升天离开你们的耶稣,你们看见他怎样往天上去,他也要怎样回来。”

选出马提亚作使徒

12 后来,他们从橄榄山回到耶路撒冷。那山靠近耶路撒冷,有一安息日可走的路程。 13 他们进了城,上了一间楼房,就是彼得、约翰、雅各、安得烈、腓力、多马、巴多罗迈、马太、亚勒腓的儿子雅各、激进派的西门、雅各的儿子犹大等人所住的。 14 这些人和几个妇女,耶稣的母亲马利亚,还有他的兄弟们,都在一起,同心地恒切祷告。

15 那时,约有一百二十人聚会,彼得在众弟兄中间站起来说: 16 “弟兄们,经上的话,就是圣灵借着大卫的口,预言那领人捉拿耶稣的犹大的事,是一定会应验的。 17 他本是我们中间的一个,一同领受了这职分。 18 他用不义的酬劳买了一块田,结果倒头栽了下去,腹破肠流。 19 这事住在耶路撒冷的人全都知道,所以按当地的话,那块地称为亚革大马,意思就是‘血田’。 20 因为诗篇上写着:

‘愿他的住处变为荒场,

无人居在其中。’

又说:

‘愿别人取代他的职分。’

21-22 所以,从约翰施洗起,直到主离开我们被接上升的那天为止,当他在我们中间来往的时候,那些跟我们常在一起的人中,应该有一个人出来与我们一同作耶稣复活的见证人。” 23 于是他们提出两个人:约瑟(号称巴撒巴,又名犹士都)和马提亚, 24 就祷告说:“主啊!你知道万人的心,求你从这两个人中,指明你要拣选谁, 25 来承担这使徒的职位和工作。这职位犹大已经放弃,往他自己的地方去了。” 26 大家就为他们抽签,结果抽中了马提亚,他就与十一使徒同列。

Jesus Taken Up Into Heaven

In my former book,(A) Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach(B) until the day he was taken up to heaven,(C) after giving instructions(D) through the Holy Spirit to the apostles(E) he had chosen.(F) After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them(G) over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God.(H) On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait(I) for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about.(J) For John baptized with[a] water,(K) but in a few days you will be baptized with[b] the Holy Spirit.”(L)

Then they gathered around him and asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore(M) the kingdom to Israel?”

He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority.(N) But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you;(O) and you will be my witnesses(P) in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria,(Q) and to the ends of the earth.”(R)

After he said this, he was taken up(S) before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight.

10 They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white(T) stood beside them. 11 “Men of Galilee,”(U) they said, “why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back(V) in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.”

Matthias Chosen to Replace Judas

12 Then the apostles returned to Jerusalem(W) from the hill called the Mount of Olives,(X) a Sabbath day’s walk[c] from the city. 13 When they arrived, they went upstairs to the room(Y) where they were staying. Those present were Peter, John, James and Andrew; Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew; James son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot, and Judas son of James.(Z) 14 They all joined together constantly in prayer,(AA) along with the women(AB) and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.(AC)

15 In those days Peter stood up among the believers (a group numbering about a hundred and twenty) 16 and said, “Brothers and sisters,[d](AD) the Scripture had to be fulfilled(AE) in which the Holy Spirit spoke long ago through David concerning Judas,(AF) who served as guide for those who arrested Jesus. 17 He was one of our number(AG) and shared in our ministry.”(AH)

18 (With the payment(AI) he received for his wickedness, Judas bought a field;(AJ) there he fell headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines spilled out. 19 Everyone in Jerusalem heard about this, so they called that field in their language(AK) Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood.)

20 “For,” said Peter, “it is written in the Book of Psalms:

“‘May his place be deserted;
    let there be no one to dwell in it,’[e](AL)

and,

“‘May another take his place of leadership.’[f](AM)

21 Therefore it is necessary to choose one of the men who have been with us the whole time the Lord Jesus was living among us, 22 beginning from John’s baptism(AN) to the time when Jesus was taken up from us. For one of these must become a witness(AO) with us of his resurrection.”

23 So they nominated two men: Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias. 24 Then they prayed,(AP) “Lord, you know everyone’s heart.(AQ) Show us(AR) which of these two you have chosen 25 to take over this apostolic ministry, which Judas left to go where he belongs.” 26 Then they cast lots, and the lot fell to Matthias; so he was added to the eleven apostles.(AS)

Hinigugma ko nga Teofilus:

Sa akon una nga libro ginsulat ko ang tanan nga ginpanghimo kag ginpanudlo ni Jesus halin sang pagsugod niya sang iya buluhaton 2-3 hasta sa tion nga gindala siya pa-langit. Sa tapos siya napatay kag nabanhaw, makapila siya nagpakita sa nagkalain-lain nga paagi sa iya mga apostoles sa pagpamatuod nga nabanhaw siya. Sa sulod sang 40 ka adlaw nagpakita siya sa ila kag gintudluan niya sila parte sa paghari sang Dios. Kag sa wala pa siya makapa-langit, may mga sugo siya nga ginbilin sa iya ginpili nga mga apostoles. Ato nga mga sugo ginhatag niya paagi sa gahom sang Espiritu Santo. Isa sadto ka tion, samtang nagakaon si Jesus kaupod nila, nagsiling siya, “Indi kamo anay maghalin sa Jerusalem. Hulaton ninyo ang Espiritu Santo nga ginpromisa sang Dios nga Amay. Ginsugid ko na ini sa inyo sang una. Nagpangbautiso si Juan sa tubig, pero sa pila ka adlaw pagabautisohan kamo sa Espiritu Santo.”

Ang Pagkayab ni Jesus pa-Langit

Isa ka tion, samtang nagatilipon sila, ginpamangkot nila si Jesus, “Ginoo, amo na bala ini ang tion nga patindugon mo liwat ang ginharian sang Israel?”[a] Nagsabat si Jesus, “Wala kamo ginatuguti sang Amay nga mahibaluan ninyo kon san-o matabo ang mga butang nga iya gintalana.[b] Pero pag-abot sang Espiritu Santo sa inyo, hatagan niya kamo sing gahom. Dayon isugid ninyo ang mga butang parte sa akon, halin diri sa Jerusalem hasta sa bug-os nga Judea kag Samaria, kag hasta sa bug-os nga kalibutan.”[c] Pagkatapos niya hambal sini, gindala siya pa-langit. Kag sang nagatulok sila sa iya nga nagapaibabaw, ginlikupan siya sang panganod kag dayon nadula siya sa ila panulok.

10 Samtang sige ang ila tan-aw sa langit, may duha ka lalaki nga nagabayo sang puti nga hinali lang nga nagtindog malapit sa ila 11 kag nagsiling, “Kamo nga mga taga-Galilea, ngaa nagatindog pa kamo diri nga nagatangla sa langit? Ining Jesus nga inyo nakita nga gindala paibabaw magabalik diri sa kalibutan. Kag kon paano siya nagpaibabaw, sa amo man sina nga paagi ang iya pagbalik.”

Nagpili ang mga Apostoles Kon Sin-o ang Ibulos kay Judas

12 Pagkatapos sadto, nagbalik ang mga apostoles sa Jerusalem halin sa Bukid sang mga Olibo. Ini nga bukid mga isa ka kilometro ang kalayuon halin sa siyudad sang Jerusalem. 13 Pag-abot nila sa Jerusalem, nagsaka sila sa ibabaw nga kuwarto sang balay nga ila ginadayunan. Sila amo sanday Pedro, Juan, Santiago, Andres, Felipe, Tomas, Bartolome, Mateo, Santiago nga anak ni Alfeus, Simon (nga sang una rebelde sa gobyerno sang Roma), kag si Judas nga anak ni Santiago. 14 Ini sila permi nagatipon agod magpangamuyo. Kaupod man nila ang pila ka mga babayi pati si Maria nga iloy ni Jesus, kag ang mga utod nga lalaki ni Jesus.

15 Sang nagligad ang pila ka adlaw, nagtipon ang mga 120 ka tumuluo. Nagtindog si Pedro kag naghambal, 16 “Mga utod, kinahanglan matuman ang ginsiling sang Kasulatan nga gintagna sang Espiritu Santo sang una paagi kay David. Ini parte kay Judas nga amo ang naggiya sa mga nagdakop kay Jesus. 17 Kaupod siya namon nga mga apostoles nga ginpili ni Jesus, kag bahin siya sang amon buluhaton.”

18 (Pero nagbakal si Judas sang duta halin sa kuwarta nga iya nabaton sa malaot nga buhat, kag didto nahulog siya nga una ang ulo. Nabusdik ang iya tiyan kag nagwagay ang iya tinai. 19 Nahibaluan ini sang tanan nga tawo sa Jerusalem, gani gintawag nila ato nga lugar Akeldama, nga kon sayuron, “Duta sang Dugo.”[d]) 20 Nagsiling pa gid si Pedro, “Nasulat sa mga Salmo,

‘Pabay-i na lang ang iya ginaestaran,
kag dapat wala na sing may mag-estar didto.’[e]

Kag nasulat man,

‘Ihatag na lang sa iban ang iya katungdanan.’[f]

21-22 “Gani kinahanglan nga magpili kita sang isa ka tawo nga ibulos kay Judas, nga magbulig sa aton sa pagpamatuod nga nabanhaw si Jesus. Kinahanglan isa siya sang mga kaupod naton nga nag-alagad kay Ginoong Jesus sang diri pa siya sa kalibutan, halin sang pagpangbautiso ni Juan hasta sa tion nga gindala si Jesus pa-langit.” 23 Gani duha ka lalaki ang ila ginpilian: si Matias kag si Jose nga ginatawag Barsabas (ukon Justus). 24 Kag antes sila magpili, nagpangamuyo sila, “Ginoo, ikaw ang nakahibalo sang tagipusuon sang tanan nga tawo. Gani ipahayag sa amon kon sin-o sa duha nga ini ang imo ginpili 25 nga mangin apostol sa pagbulos kay Judas. Kay ginbayaan ni Judas ang iya obra bilang isa ka apostol, kag nagkadto siya sa lugar nga bagay sa iya.” 26 Pagkatapos nila pangamuyo, naggabot-gabot sila. Kag ang napilian amo si Matias. Gani si Matias amo ang gindugang sa onse ka apostoles.

The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,

Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:

To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:

And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.

For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.

When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?

And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.

10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;

11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.

12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.

13 And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.

14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.

15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about an hundred and twenty,)

16 Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus.

17 For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.

18 Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.

19 And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; insomuch as that field is called in their proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, The field of blood.

20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.

21 Wherefore of these men which have companied with us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

22 Beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that he was taken up from us, must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection.

23 And they appointed two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.

24 And they prayed, and said, Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men, shew whether of these two thou hast chosen,

25 That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.

26 And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
