Legacy Standard Bible
4 And [a]gathering them together, He commanded them (A)not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for the (B)promise of the Father, “Which,” He said, “you heard of from Me; 5 for [b](C)John baptized with water, but you will be baptized [c]with the Holy Spirit [d](D)not many days from now.”
6 So when they had come together, they were asking Him, saying, “Lord, (E)is it at this time You are restoring the kingdom to Israel?” 7 But He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons which (F)the Father has set by His own authority; 8 but you will receive power (G)when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be (H)My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and (I)Samaria, and even to [e](J)the end of the earth.”

The Holy Spirit Promised
4 (A)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 (B)heard from Me; 5 (C)for John truly baptized with water, (D)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, (E)“It is not for you to (F)know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. 8 (G)But you shall receive power (H)when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and (I)you shall be [a]witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and (J)Samaria, and to the (K)end of the earth.”
