Rotherham(i)
2 Until the day when, having given command unto the apostles, whom through Holy Spirit he had chosen, he was taken up;
3 Unto whom he also presented himself alive, after he had suffered, by many sure tokens, throughout forty days making himself visible unto them, and speaking the things concerning the kingdom of God.
4 And being in company with them he charged them, from Jerusalem, not to absent themselves, but––To abide around the promise of the Father which ye have heard of me,
5 Because, John, indeed, immersed with water; but, ye, in Holy Spirit shall be immersed,––after not many of these days.
6 They, therefore, having come together, began to question him, saying––Lord! art thou at this time duly establishing the kingdom unto Israel? 7 He said unto them––It is not yours to get to know times or seasons which the Father hath put in his own authority; 8 But ye shall receive power when the Holy Spirit cometh upon you, and ye shall be my witnesses, both in Jerusalem and [in] all Judaea and Samaria and as far as the uttermost part of the land. 9 And having said these things, as they were beholding, he was lifted up, and a cloud caught him away from their eyes. 10 And, while they were looking steadfastly into heaven as he was going his way, then lo! two men had taken their stand beside them, in white garments,–– 11 Who also said––Men of Galilee! why stand ye looking into heaven? This Jesus who hath been taken up from you into heaven, shall so come, in like manner as ye yourselves have gazed upon him going into heaven.
12 Then returned they into Jerusalem, from a mountain called Olivet, which is nigh unto Jerusalem a Sabbath day’s journey. 13 And, when they had entered, into the upper–story went they up, where remained behind––both Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus and Simon the zealot, and Judas the son of James. 14 These all were giving constant attention with one accord unto the prayer, with [certain] women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
