⁹And these things having said—they beholding—he was taken up, and a cloud did receive him up from their sight; ¹⁰and as they were looking stedfastly to the heaven in his going on, then, lo, two men stood by them in white apparel, ¹¹who also said, ‘Men, Galileans, why do ye stand gazing into the heaven? this Jesus who was received up from you into the heaven, shall so come in what manner ye saw him going on to the heaven.’
