but you will receive power ^(C1)when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be ^(C2)My witnesses both in Jerusalem and in all Judea, and ^(C3)Samaria, and as far as ^(C4)the remotest part of the earth."

And as they were gazing intently into the sky while He was going, then behold, ^(C1)two men in white clothing stood beside them,

and they said, "^(C1)Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who ^(C2)has been taken up from you into heaven, will ^(C3)come in the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven."

Then they ^(C1)returned to Jerusalem from the ^(F1)(C2)mountain called ^(F2)Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a ^(F3)Sabbath day's journey away.
