Acts 1:1-5

Revised Geneva Translation

1 I have made the first account, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began to do and teach

² until the day He was taken up (after He, through the Holy Ghost, had given Commandments to the Apostles whom He had chosen -

³ and to whom He presented Himself alive by many sure signs after He had suffered - being seen by them over forty days and speaking of those things concerning the Kingdom of God).

⁴ And when He had gathered them together, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, He said, “You have heard from Me.

⁵ “For John indeed baptized with water. But you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost within a few days.”
