The Ascension of Jesus
6 So when they had come together, they asked him, “Lord, is this the time when you will restore the kingdom to Israel?”(A) 7 He replied, “It is not for you to know the times or periods that the Father has set by his own authority.(B) 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”(C) 9 When he had said this, as they were watching, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight.(D) 10 While he was going and they were gazing up toward heaven, suddenly two men in white robes stood by them.(E) 11 They said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking up toward heaven? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven.”(F)

New International Version
6 Then they gathered around him and asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore(A) the kingdom to Israel?”
7 He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority.(B) 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you;(C) and you will be my witnesses(D) in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria,(E) and to the ends of the earth.”(F)
9 After he said this, he was taken up(G) 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(H) stood beside them. 11 “Men of Galilee,”(I) 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(J) in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.”
