²⁸ He was with them entering into{TR and NU add "and going out"} Jerusalem,

²¹ Of the men therefore who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

¹⁶ Let Yahweh, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,

¹⁷ who may go out before them, and who may come in before them, and who may lead them out, and who may bring them in; that the congregation of Yahweh not be as sheep which have no shepherd.

² In times past, when Saul was king over us, it was you who led out and brought in Israel: and Yahweh said to you, You shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and you shall be prince over Israel.

⁷ Now, Yahweh my God, you have made your servant king instead of David my father: and I am but a little child; I don't know how to go out or come in.

⁸ Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, From this time forth, and forevermore.

⁹ I am the door. If anyone enters in by me, he will be saved, and will go in and go out, and will find pasture.

¹⁸ Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Peter, and stayed with him fifteen days.
