Acts 1:9-11

The Ascension

9 And after He had said these things, 1He was lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud received Him out of their sight.
10 And as they were gazing intently into [a]the sky while He was going, behold, 2two men in white clothing stood beside them.
11 They also said, "3Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into [b]the sky? This Jesus, who 4has been taken up from you into heaven, will 5come in just the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven."
