Acts 1
King James Version
1 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,
2 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:
3 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:
4 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.
5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
7 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.
8 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.
9 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.

A promessa do Espírito Santo
1 Em meu primeiro livro,[a] relatei a você, Teófilo, tudo que Jesus começou a fazer e a ensinar 2 até o dia em que foi levado para o céu, depois de dar a seus apóstolos escolhidos mais instruções por meio do Espírito Santo. 3 Durante os quarenta dias após seu sofrimento e morte, Jesus apareceu aos apóstolos diversas vezes. Ele lhes apresentou muitas provas claras de que estava vivo e lhes falou do reino de Deus.
4 Certa ocasião, enquanto comia com eles, deu-lhes a seguinte ordem: “Não saiam de Jerusalém até o Pai enviar a promessa, conforme eu lhes disse antes. 5 João batizou com[b] água, mas dentro de poucos dias vocês serão batizados com o Espírito Santo”.
A ascensão de Jesus
6 Então os que estavam com Jesus lhe perguntaram: “Senhor, será esse o momento em que restaurará o reino a Israel?”.
7 Ele respondeu: “O Pai já determinou o tempo e a ocasião para que isso aconteça, e não cabe a vocês saber. 8 Vocês receberão poder quando o Espírito Santo descer sobre vocês, e serão minhas testemunhas em toda parte: em Jerusalém, em toda a Judeia, em Samaria e nos lugares mais distantes da terra”.
9 Depois de ter dito isso, foi elevado numa nuvem, e os discípulos não conseguiram mais vê-lo. 10 Continuaram a olhar atentamente para o céu, até que dois homens vestidos de branco apareceram de repente no meio deles 11 e disseram: “Homens da Galileia, por que estão aí parados, olhando para o céu? Esse Jesus, que foi elevado do meio de vocês ao céu, voltará do mesmo modo como o viram subir!”.
Matias substitui Judas
12 Então voltaram do monte das Oliveiras para Jerusalém, cerca de um quilômetro[c] de distância. 13 Quando chegaram, subiram à sala no andar superior da casa onde estavam hospedados.
Estavam ali Pedro, João, Tiago, André, Filipe, Tomé, Bartolomeu, Mateus, Tiago, filho de Alfeu, Simão, o zelote, e Judas, filho de Tiago. 14 Todos eles se reuniam em oração com um só propósito, acompanhados de algumas mulheres e também de Maria, mãe de Jesus, e os irmãos dele.
15 Por esse tempo, quando cerca de 120 discípulos[d] estavam reunidos num só lugar, Pedro se levantou e disse: 16 “Irmãos, era necessário que se cumprissem as Escrituras a respeito de Judas, que serviu de guia aos que prenderam Jesus. Esse acontecimento havia sido predito pelo Espírito Santo, por meio do rei Davi. 17 Judas era um de nós e participava do ministério conosco”.
18 (Ele comprou um campo com o dinheiro que recebeu por sua perversidade. Ao cair ali de cabeça, seu corpo se partiu ao meio, e seus intestinos se derramaram. 19 A notícia se espalhou entre todos os habitantes de Jerusalém, e eles deram ao lugar o nome aramaico Aceldama, que significa “Campo de Sangue”.)
20 Pedro continuou: “Estava escrito no livro de Salmos: ‘Que sua casa fique desolada, sem ninguém morando nela’. Também diz: ‘Que outro ocupe seu lugar’.[e]
21 “Agora, portanto, devemos escolher um dentre os homens que estiveram conosco durante todo o tempo em que o Senhor Jesus andou entre nós, 22 desde que ele foi batizado por João até o dia em que foi tirado de nosso meio e elevado ao céu. O escolhido se juntará a nós como testemunha da ressurreição”.
23 Então indicaram dois homens: José, chamado Barsabás e conhecido também como Justo, e Matias. 24 Em seguida, oraram: “Senhor, tu conheces cada coração. Mostra-nos qual destes homens escolheste 25 como apóstolo para substituir Judas neste ministério, pois ele se desviou e foi para seu devido lugar”. 26 Então lançaram sortes e Matias foi escolhido como apóstolo, juntando-se aos outros onze.
Acts 1
New King James Version
Prologue
1 The former account I made, O (A)Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, 2 (B)until the day in which [a]He was taken up, after He through the Holy Spirit (C)had given commandments to the apostles whom He had chosen, 3 (D)to whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many [b]infallible proofs, being seen by them during forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.
The Holy Spirit Promised
4 (E)And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, “which,” He said, “you have (F)heard from Me; 5 (G)for John truly baptized with water, (H)but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.” 6 Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” 7 And He said to them, (I)“It is not for you to (J)know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. 8 (K)But you shall receive power (L)when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and (M)you shall be [c]witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and (N)Samaria, and to the (O)end of the earth.”
Jesus Ascends to Heaven(P)
9 (Q)Now when He had spoken these things, while they watched, (R)He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. 10 And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them (S)in white apparel, 11 who also said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, (T)will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.”
The Upper Room Prayer Meeting
12 (U)Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day’s journey. 13 And when they had entered, they went up (V)into the upper room where they were staying: (W)Peter, James, John, and Andrew; Philip and Thomas; Bartholomew and Matthew; James the son of Alphaeus and (X)Simon the Zealot; and (Y)Judas the son of James. 14 (Z)These all continued with one [d]accord in prayer [e]and supplication, with (AA)the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with (AB)His brothers.
Matthias Chosen(AC)
15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the [f]disciples (altogether the number (AD)of names was about a hundred and twenty), and said, 16 “Men and brethren, this Scripture had to be fulfilled, (AE)which the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, (AF)who became a guide to those who arrested Jesus; 17 for (AG)he was numbered with us and obtained a part in (AH)this ministry.”
18 (AI)(Now this man purchased a field with (AJ)the [g]wages of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his [h]entrails gushed out. 19 And it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem; so that field is called in their own language, Akel Dama, that is, Field of Blood.)
20 “For it is written in the Book of Psalms:
and,
21 “Therefore, of these men who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us, 22 beginning from the baptism of John to that day when (AM)He was taken up from us, one of these must (AN)become a witness with us of His resurrection.”
23 And they proposed two: Joseph called (AO)Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias. 24 And they prayed and said, “You, O Lord, (AP)who know the hearts of all, show which of these two You have chosen 25 (AQ)to take part in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.” 26 And they cast their lots, and the lot fell on Matthias. And he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
