Acts 1:19-23

¹⁹All those living in Jerusalem heard about this, so they called that field in their language “Akeldama,” that is, “Field of Blood.”)

²⁰“For it is written in the Book of Psalms, 'Let his field be made desolate, and do not let even one person live there'; 'Let someone else take his position of leadership.'

²¹It is necessary, therefore, that one of the men who accompanied us all the time the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

²²beginning from the baptism of John to the day that he was taken up from us, must be a witness with us of his resurrection.”

²³They put forward two men, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also named Justus, and Matthias.
