49 And, look! I am sending forth upon YOU that which is promised by my Father. YOU, though, abide in the city until YOU become clothed with power from on high.”+

8 but YOU will receive power+ when the holy spirit arrives upon YOU, and YOU will be witnesses*+ of me both in Jerusalem+ and in all Ju·deʹa and Sa·marʹi·a+ and to the most distant part* of the earth.”+

14 The purpose was that the blessing of Abraham might come to be by means of Jesus Christ for the nations,+ that we might receive the promised spirit*+ through our faith.+
