Acts 1:20-22

MSG

NIV

20 It's exactly what we find written in the Psalms: Let his farm become haunted So no one can ever live there. "And also what was written later: Let someone else take over his post.
20 “For,” said Peter, “it is written in the Book of Psalms: “ ‘May his place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in it,’and, “ ‘May another take his place of leadership.’
21 "Judas must now be replaced. The replacement must come from the company of men who stayed together with us
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 from the time Jesus was baptized by John up to the day of his ascension, designated along with us as a witness to his resurrection."
22 beginning from John’s baptism to the time when Jesus was taken up from us. For one of these must become a witness with us of his resurrection.”
