Acts 1:1-6

Weymouth New Testament WNT

1 My former narrative, Theophilus, dealt with all that Jesus did and taught as a beginning, down to the day on which,

2 after giving instruction through the Holy Spirit to the Apostles whom He had chosen, He was taken up to Heaven.

3 He had also, after He suffered, shown Himself alive to them with many sure proofs, appearing to them at intervals during forty days, and speaking of the Kingdom of God.

4 And while in their company He charged them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for the Father's promised gift. "This you have heard of," He said, "from me.

5 For John indeed baptized with water, but before many days have passed you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit."

6 Once when they were with Him, they asked Him, "Master, is this the time at which you are about to restore the kingdom of Israel?"

New International Version NIV

1 In my former book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach

2 until the day he was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen.

3 After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God.

4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about.

5 For John baptized withwater, but in a few days you will be baptized withthe Holy Spirit.”

6 Then they gathered around him and asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?”
