Acts 1:5-8
J.B. Phillips New Testament
5 “You have already heard me speak about this,” he said, “for John used to baptise with water, but before many days are passed you will be baptised with the Holy Spirit.”
6 This naturally brought them all together, and they asked him, “Lord, is this the time when you are going to restore the kingdom to Israel?”
7-8 To this he replied, “You cannot know times and dates which have been fixed by the Father’s sole authority. But you are to be given power when the Holy Spirit has come to you. You will be witnesses to me, not only in Jerusalem, not only throughout Judea, not only in Samaria, but to the very ends of the earth!”
