Jesus Is Taken Up Into Heaven
19 So indeed the Lord Jesus, after He spoke to them, was taken-up into heaven and sat-down on the right side of God. 20 And those ones, having gone-forth, proclaimed it everywhere, the Lord working-with them and confirming[a] the word by the signs following-after[b] them.
[A few Greek manuscripts have this “Short[c] Ending” after verse 8, followed by the “long ending” above]
And they promptly reported all the things having been commanded them to the ones around Peter. And after these things, Jesus Himself also sent-forth the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation through them, from the east and as-far-as the west. Amen.
