Deeds (Act) of Apostles 1:1-5

¹Theophilus, first I made a sermon or a word of all the things, that Jesus began to do and teach,

²into the day of his ascension, in which he commanded by the Holy Ghost to his apostles, whom he had chosen; till into the day, in which he commanding to the apostles by the Holy Ghost, whom he chose, was taken up;

³to whom he showed himself alive after his passion, by many arguments, or provings, appearing to them forty days, and speaking of the realm of God.

⁴And he ate with them, and commanded to them, that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but abide the promise of the Father, which ye heard, he said, by my mouth;

⁵for John baptized in water, but ye shall be baptized in the Holy Ghost, after these few days.
