Acts 1

5 Ref because John, indeed, baptized with water, and ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit -- after not many days.'

6 Ref They, therefore, indeed, having come together, were questioning him, saying, `Lord, dost thou at this time restore the reign to Israel?'

7 Ref and he said unto them, `It is not yours to know times or seasons that the Father did appoint in His own authority;

8 Ref but ye shall receive power at the coming of the Holy Spirit upon you, and ye shall be witnesses to me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and unto the end of the earth.'

9 Ref And these things having said -- they beholding -- he was taken up, and a cloud did receive him up from their sight;

10 Ref and as they were looking stedfastly to the heaven in his going on, then, lo, two men stood by them in white apparel,

11 Ref who also said, `Men, Galileans, why do ye stand gazing into the heaven? this Jesus who was received up from you into the heaven, shall so come in what manner ye saw him going on to the heaven.'
