1 ¶ Teofil monchè: Nan premye liv mwen an, mwen te rakonte tou sa Jezi te fè ak tout bagay li te moutre pèp la, depi nan konmans man,
2 jouk jou li moute nan syèl la. Anvan l' te moute a, li te pale ak moun li te chwazi pou sèvi apòt. Avèk pouvwa Sentespri sou li, li ba yo lòd sa pou yo fè.
3 Apre lanmò li, li te parèt plizyè fwa devan yo. Li te ba yo divès prèv li te vivan ankò. Pandan karant jou, li fè yo wè l', li pale yo sou peyi kote Bondye wa a.
4 Yon jou yo t'ap manje ansanm, Jezi ba yo lòd sa a: Pa kite lavil Jerizalèm. Rete tann sa Papa a te pwomèt la, kado mwen t'ap pale nou an.
5 Jan te batize nou nan dlo, men nan kèk jou ankò, nou pral resevwa batèm nan Sentespri a.
6 ¶ Lè sa a, moun ki te reyini bò kot Jezi yo pran mande li: Mèt, èske se koulye a ou pral mete gouvènman pèp Izrayèl la sou pye l' ankò?
7 Jezi reponn yo: Nou pa bezwen konnen ki jou ni ki lè sa va fèt. Se Papa a ki fikse dat la li menm, pou kont li.
8 Men, lè Sentespri a va desann sou nou, n'a resevwa yon pouvwa. Lè sa a, n'a sèvi m' temwen nan Jerizalèm, nan tout peyi Jide ak nan tout peyi Samari, jouk nan dènye bout latè.
9 Apre li fin di yo sa, li moute nan syèl. Antan yo t'ap gade li, yon nwaj vin bouche l' devan je yo.
10 Yo te gen je yo fikse nan syèl la kote Jezi t'ap moute a, lè dezòm, abiye tout an blan, parèt konsa bò kote yo.
11 Dezòm yo di yo: Nou menm, moun Galile, poukisa nou rete la ap gade syèl la konsa? Jezi sa a ki fèk sot nan mitan nou an pou moute nan syèl la, li gen pou l' tounen menm jan nou wè l' moute nan syèl la.
12 ¶ Apre sa, apòt yo desann mòn Oliv, yo tounen Jerizalèm. Mòn lan te toupre lavil la, distans yon kilomèt konsa.
13 Lè yo rive Jerizalèm, yo moute nan chanm anwo kay kote yo konn ye a. Lè sa a te gen Pyè, Jan, Jak ak Andre, Filip ak Toma, Batèlmi ak Matye, Jak, pitit Alfe a, Simon, nonm patriyòt la, epi Jid, pitit Jak la.
14 Yo tout mete tèt yo ansanm, yo t'ap lapriye san rete. Medam yo te la tou ansanm ak Mari, manman Jezi, ak frè l' yo tou.
15 ¶ Yon jou tout frè yo te sanble, te gen sanven (120) moun antou konsa. Piè kanpe nan mitan yo, li di:
16 Frè m' yo, sa Sentespri te anonse nan Liv yo, fòk sa te rive vre. Se konsa, nan bouch David, li te fè konnen davans ki jan Jida t'apral mennen moun ki te arete Jezi yo.
17 Jida te yonn nan nou, li te gen sèvis pa l' nan travay nou an.
18 (Avèk lajan yon te ba l' pou krim lan, Jida te achte yon moso tè. Se la li tonbe sou tèt, vant li pete, tout zantray li gaye sot deyò.
19 Se bagay tout moun nan Jerizalèm konnen byen. Se pou sa nan lang yo, yo te rele tè a: Akeldama, ki vle di: jaden san an.)
20 Men sa ki ekri nan Liv Sòm yo: Se pou kay li rete san moun. Se pou pesonn pa rete ladan li. Pi lwen ankò nou jwenn: Se pou yon lòt moun pran plas li nan travay la.
21 Se poutèt sa, nou bezwen yon lòt moun ansanm ak nou pou sèvi temwen Seyè Jezi te leve soti vivan nan lanmò. Moun sa a, fòk se yonn nan moun ki te toujou la avèk nou tout tan Seyè Jezi t'ap mache avèk nou nan tout peyi a,
22 depi lè Jan te batize l' la jouk jou li te kite nou an pou l' moute nan syèl la.
23 Yo bay non de moun: Jozèf, yo te rele Basabas ki te gen yon ti non Jistis, epi Matyas.
24 Apre sa, yo lapriyè konsa: Bondye, ou menm ki konnen kè tout moun, moutre nou kilès ou chwazi nan de moun sa yo,
25 pou sèvi apòt nan plas Jida te kite pou li al kote ki te pou li a.
26 Apre sa, yo tire osò: se Matyas ki soti. Se konsa yo mete l' ansanm ak onz apòt yo.

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.

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.

Jesus Taken Up Into Heaven
1 In my former book,(A) Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach(B) 2 until the day he was taken up to heaven,(C) after giving instructions(D) through the Holy Spirit to the apostles(E) he had chosen.(F) 3 After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them(G) over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God.(H) 4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait(I) for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about.(J) 5 For John baptized with[a] water,(K) but in a few days you will be baptized with[b] the Holy Spirit.”(L)
6 Then they gathered around him and asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore(M) the kingdom to Israel?”
7 He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority.(N) 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you;(O) and you will be my witnesses(P) in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria,(Q) and to the ends of the earth.”(R)
9 After he said this, he was taken up(S) before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight.
10 They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white(T) stood beside them. 11 “Men of Galilee,”(U) they said, “why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back(V) in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.”
Matthias Chosen to Replace Judas
12 Then the apostles returned to Jerusalem(W) from the hill called the Mount of Olives,(X) a Sabbath day’s walk[c] from the city. 13 When they arrived, they went upstairs to the room(Y) where they were staying. Those present were Peter, John, James and Andrew; Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew; James son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot, and Judas son of James.(Z) 14 They all joined together constantly in prayer,(AA) along with the women(AB) and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.(AC)
15 In those days Peter stood up among the believers (a group numbering about a hundred and twenty) 16 and said, “Brothers and sisters,[d](AD) the Scripture had to be fulfilled(AE) in which the Holy Spirit spoke long ago through David concerning Judas,(AF) who served as guide for those who arrested Jesus. 17 He was one of our number(AG) and shared in our ministry.”(AH)
18 (With the payment(AI) he received for his wickedness, Judas bought a field;(AJ) there he fell headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines spilled out. 19 Everyone in Jerusalem heard about this, so they called that field in their language(AK) Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood.)
20 “For,” said Peter, “it is written in the Book of Psalms:
and,
21 Therefore it is necessary to choose one of the men who have been with us the whole time the Lord Jesus was living among us, 22 beginning from John’s baptism(AN) to the time when Jesus was taken up from us. For one of these must become a witness(AO) with us of his resurrection.”
23 So they nominated two men: Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias. 24 Then they prayed,(AP) “Lord, you know everyone’s heart.(AQ) Show us(AR) which of these two you have chosen 25 to take over this apostolic ministry, which Judas left to go where he belongs.” 26 Then they cast lots, and the lot fell to Matthias; so he was added to the eleven apostles.(AS)
