The Ascension
9 And after He had said these things, (A)He was lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. 10 And as they were gazing intently into [a]the sky while He was going, behold, (B)two men in white clothing stood beside them. 11 They also said, “(C)Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking toward heaven? This Jesus, who (D)has been taken up from you into heaven, will (E)come in just the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven.”

9 After saying this, he was taken up into a cloud while they were watching, and they could no longer see him. 10 As they strained to see him rising into heaven, two white-robed men suddenly stood among them. 11 “Men of Galilee,” they said, “why are you standing here staring into heaven? Jesus has been taken from you into heaven, but someday he will return from heaven in the same way you saw him go!”
