The Latin Vulgate VUL
Young's Literal Translation YLT
1 primum quidem sermonem feci de omnibus o Theophile quae coepit Iesus facere et docere
1
The former account, indeed, I made concerning all things, O Theophilus, that Jesus began both to do and to teach,
2 usque in diem qua praecipiens apostolis per Spiritum Sanctum quos elegit adsumptus est
2
till the day in which, having given command, through the Holy Spirit, to the apostles whom he did choose out, he was taken up,
3 quibus et praebuit se ipsum vivum post passionem suam in multis argumentis per dies quadraginta apparens eis et loquens de regno Dei
3
to whom also he did present himself alive after his suffering, in many certain proofs, through forty days being seen by them, and speaking the things concerning the reign of God.
4 et convescens praecepit eis ab Hierosolymis ne discederent sed expectarent promissionem Patris quam audistis per os meum
4
And being assembled together with them, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, [saith he,] `Ye did hear of me;
5 quia Iohannes quidem baptizavit aqua vos autem baptizabimini Spiritu Sancto non post multos hos dies
5
because John, indeed, baptized with water, and ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit -- after not many days.'
6 igitur qui convenerant interrogabant eum dicentes Domine si in tempore hoc restitues regnum Israhel
6
They, therefore, indeed, having come together, were questioning him, saying, `Lord, dost thou at this time restore the reign to Israel?'
7 dixit autem eis non est vestrum nosse tempora vel momenta quae Pater posuit in sua potestate
7
and he said unto them, `It is not yours to know times or seasons that the Father did appoint in His own authority;
8 sed accipietis virtutem supervenientis Spiritus Sancti in vos et eritis mihi testes in Hierusalem et in omni Iudaea et Samaria et usque ad ultimum terrae
8
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 et cum haec dixisset videntibus illis elevatus est et nubes suscepit eum ab oculis eorum
9
And these things having said -- they beholding -- he was taken up, and a cloud did receive him up from their sight;
10 cumque intuerentur in caelum eunte illo ecce duo viri adstiterunt iuxta illos in vestibus albis
10
and as they were looking stedfastly to the heaven in his going on, then, lo, two men stood by them in white apparel,
11 qui et dixerunt viri galilaei quid statis aspicientes in caelum hic Iesus qui adsumptus est a vobis in caelum sic veniet quemadmodum vidistis eum euntem in caelum
11
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.'
12 tunc reversi sunt Hierosolymam a monte qui vocatur Oliveti qui est iuxta Hierusalem sabbati habens iter
12
Then did they return to Jerusalem from the mount that is called of Olives, that is near Jerusalem, a sabbath's journey;
13 et cum introissent in cenaculum ascenderunt ubi manebant Petrus et Iohannes Iacobus et Andreas Philippus et Thomas Bartholomeus et Mattheus Iacobus Alphei et Simon Zelotes et Iudas Iacobi
13
and when they came in, they went up to the upper room, where were abiding both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James, of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zelotes, and Judas, of James;
14 hii omnes erant perseverantes unianimiter in oratione cum mulieribus et Maria matre Iesu et fratribus eius
14
these all were continuing with one accord in prayer and supplication, with women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
15 et in diebus illis exsurgens Petrus in medio fratrum dixit erat autem turba nominum simul fere centum viginti
15
And in these days, Peter having risen up in the midst of the disciples, said, (the multitude also of the names at the same place was, as it were, an hundred and twenty,)
16 viri fratres oportet impleri scripturam quam praedixit Spiritus Sanctus per os David de Iuda qui fuit dux eorum qui conprehenderunt Iesum
16
`Men, brethren, it behoved this Writing that it be fulfilled that beforehand the Holy Spirit spake through the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus,
17 quia connumeratus erat in nobis et sortitus est sortem ministerii huius
17
because he was numbered among us, and did receive the share in this ministration,
18 et hic quidem possedit agrum de mercede iniquitatis et suspensus crepuit medius et diffusa sunt omnia viscera eius
18
this one, indeed, then, purchased a field out of the reward of unrighteousness, and falling headlong, burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed forth,
19 et notum factum est omnibus habitantibus Hierusalem ita ut appellaretur ager ille lingua eorum Acheldemach hoc est ager Sanguinis
19
and it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem, insomuch that that place is called, in their proper dialect, Aceldama, that is, field of blood,
20 scriptum est enim in libro Psalmorum fiat commoratio eius deserta et non sit qui inhabitet in ea et episcopatum eius accipiat alius
20
for it hath been written in the book of Psalms: Let his lodging-place become desolate, and let no one be dwelling in it, and his oversight let another take.
21 oportet ergo ex his viris qui nobiscum congregati sunt in omni tempore quo intravit et exivit inter nos Dominus Iesus
21
`It behoveth, therefore, of the men who did go with us during all the time in which the Lord Jesus went in and went out among us,
22 incipiens a baptismate Iohannis usque in diem qua adsumptus est a nobis testem resurrectionis eius nobiscum fieri unum ex istis
22
beginning from the baptism of John, unto the day in which he was received up from us, one of these to become with us a witness of his rising again.'
23 et statuerunt duos Ioseph qui vocabatur Barsabban qui cognominatus est Iustus et Matthiam
23
And they set two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias,
24 et orantes dixerunt tu Domine qui corda nosti omnium ostende quem elegeris ex his duobus unum
24
and having prayed, they said, `Thou, Lord, who art knowing the heart of all, shew which one thou didst choose of these two
25 accipere locum ministerii huius et apostolatus de quo praevaricatus est Iudas ut abiret in locum suum
25
to receive the share of this ministration and apostleship, from which Judas, by transgression, did fall, to go on to his proper place;'
26 et dederunt sortes eis et cecidit sors super Matthiam et adnumeratus est cum undecim apostolis
26
and they gave their lots, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
