¹⁸ And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.^{(A) 19} Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit^{(B) 20} and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”^[a]

⁴⁵ Then he opened their minds to understand the scriptures, ⁴⁶ and he said to them, “Thus it is written, that the Messiah^[a] is^[b] to suffer and to rise from the dead on the third day^{(A) 47} and that repentance and forgiveness of sins is to be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem.^{(B) 48} You are witnesses^[c] of these things.^{(C) 49} And see, I am sending upon you what my Father promised, so stay here in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”^(D)

¹⁸ As you have sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world.^(A)
