16Brethren, it was needful that the scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost spake before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who was guide to them that took Jesus.
17For he was numbered among us, and received his portion in this ministry.
18(Now this man obtained a field with the reward of his iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.
19And it became known to all the dwellers at Jerusalem; insomuch that in their language that field was called Akeldama, that is, The field of blood.)
20For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be made desolate, And let no man dwell therein: and, His office let another take.
21Of the men therefore which have companied with us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and went out among us,
22beginning from the baptism of John, unto the day that he was received up from us, of these must one become a witness with us of his resurrection.
23And they put forward two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
24And they prayed, and said, Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men, shew of these two the one whom thou hast chosen,
25to take the place in this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas fell away, that he might go to his own place.
26And they gave lots for them; and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
