12Then the apostles returned to Jerusalem from the hill called Olivet, which is about three quarters of a mile from the city.
13When they reached Jerusalem, they went to the upstairs room, where they were staying. There were there Peter, John, James, and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.
14They all united in devoting themselves to prayer, and so did some women, and Mary, the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.
15About this time, at a meeting of the Lord's followers, when there were about a hundred and twenty present, Peter rose to speak.
16“Friends,” he said, “it was necessary that the prediction of scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit made by the lips of David about Judas, who acted as guide to the men who arrested Jesus,
17for he was one of our number and had his part allotted him in this work of ours.”
