1:16. Men, brethren, the scripture must needs be fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who was the leader of them that apprehended Jesus: 1:17. Who was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry. 1:18. And he indeed hath possessed a field of the reward of iniquity, and being hanged, burst asunder in the midst: and all his bowels gushed out. 1:19. And it became known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem: so that the same field was called in their tongue, Haceldama, that is to say, The field of blood. 1:20. For it is written in the book of Psalms: Let their habitation become desolate, and let there be none to dwell therein. And his bishopric let another take. 1:21. Wherefore of these men who have companied with us, all the time that the Lord Jesus came in and went out among us, 1:22. Beginning from the baptism of John, until the day wherein he was taken up from us, one of these must be made a witness with us of his resurrection. 1:23. And they appointed two, Joseph, called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias. 1:24. And praying, they said: Thou, Lord, who knowest the heart of all men, shew whether of these two thou hast chosen, 1:25. To take the place of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas hath by transgression fallen, that he might go to his own place. 1:26. And they gave them lot, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles. Acts Chapter 2 The disciples receive the Holy Ghost. Peter's sermon to the people. The piety of the first converts. 2:1. And when the days of the Pentecost were accomplished, they were all together in one place: 2:2. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a mighty wind coming: and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. 2:3. And there appeared to them parted tongues, as it were of fire: and it sat upon every one of them. 2:4. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost: and they began to speak with divers tongues, according as the Holy Ghost gave them to speak. 2:5. Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem, Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. 2:6. And when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded in mind, because that every man heard them speak in his own tongue. 2:7. And they were all amazed, and wondered, saying: Behold, are not all these that speak Galilean? 2:8. And how have we heard, every man our own tongue wherein we were born? 2:9. Parthians and Medes and Elamites and inhabitants of Mesopotamia, Judea, and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, 2:10. Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, 2:11. Jews also, and proselytes, Cretes, and Arabians: we have heard them speak in our own tongues the wonderful works of God. 2:12. And they were all astonished, and wondered, saying one to another: What meaneth this?
