Christ's charge to Peter.

13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise. 14 This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, See ch. 20. after that he was risen from the dead. 15 So when they had 5 dined 5, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of B Jonas B, lovest thou me more 7 than these 7? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I 8 love 8 thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. 16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of ẞ Jonas B, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. iHei Acts 20. 28. saith unto him, 9 Feed my y sheepy. 17 He saith unto him the third time, AFTER these things Jesus Ishewed 1 Simon, son of & Jonas B, lovest thou me ? himself again to the disciples at the Peter was grieved because he said unto sea of Tiberias; and on this wise 1 shew-him the third time, Lovest thou me ? ed he himself. And he said unto him, Lord, k thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my y sheep y.

1 Christ appearing again to his disciples was
known of them by the great draught of fishes.
12 He dineth with them: 15 earnestly com-
mandeth Peter to feed his lambs and sheep:
18 foretelleth him of his death: 22 rebuketh his
curiosity touching John. 25 The conclusion.

2 There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and a Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other of his disciples.

3 Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a
fishing. They say unto him, We also go
with thee. They went forth, and entered
into 2a2 ship immediatelyß; and that
night they caught nothing.

4 But when the morning was now come,
Jesus stood on the shore: but the dis-
ciples knew not that it was Jesus.
5 3 Then 3 d Jesus saith unto them,
Children, have ye any meat? They an-
swered him, No.

6 And he said unto them, Cast the
net on the right side of the ship, and
ye shall find. They cast therefore, and
now they were not able to draw it for
the multitude of fishes.

7 Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord. 3 Now 3 when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fisher's coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea.

8 And the other disciples came in 2a2
little ship; (for they were not far from
land, but as it were two hundred cubits,)
dragging the net with fishes.

9 As soon then as they were come to
land, they saw a fire of coals there, and
fish laid thereon, and bread 4.
10 Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the
fish which ye have now caught.

11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the
net to land full of great fishes, an hun-
dred and fifty and three and for all
there were so many, yet was not the net
broken.

12 Jesus saith unto them, Come and 5 dine 5. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.

19 This spake he, signifying m by what m 2 Pet. 1.14.
death he should glorify God. And when
he had spoken this, he saith unto him,
Follow me.

20 Then Peter, turning about, seeth
the disciple whom Jesus loved follow-
ing; which also 10 leaned 10 on his breast
at supper, and said, Lord, which is he
that betrayeth thee

21 Peter seeing him saith to Jesus,
Lord, and what shall this man do?

22 Jesus saith unto him, If I will that
he tarry till I come, what is that to
thee ? follow thou me.

23 3 Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee ? B

6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?

7 And he said unto them, 'It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father 6 hath put in his own power 6.

8m But ye shall receive || power, "after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

9 P And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.

10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; 11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into

CHAPTER 2.

THE ACTS, 2.

1 The apostles, filled with the Holy Ghost, and
speaking divers languages, are admired by some,
and derided by others. 14 Whom Peter disprov-
ing, and shewing that the apostles spake by the
power of the Holy Ghost, that Jesus was risen
from the dead, ascended into heaven, had pour-
ed down the same Holy Ghost, and was the
Messias, a man known to them to be approved
of God by his miracles, wonders, and signs, and
not crucified without his determinate counsel
and foreknowledge: 37 he baptizeth a great
number that were converted. 41 Who afterwards
devoutly and charitably converse together: the

apostles working many miracles, and God daily
increasing his church.

AND when the day of Pentecost was

fully come1, they were all ẞ with
one accord ẞ in one place.

2 And suddenly there came a sound from
heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and
cit filled all the house where they were
sitting.

3 And there appeared unto them 2 cloven
tongues 2 like as of fire, and it sat upon
each of them.

4 And they were all filled with the
Holy Ghost, and began to speak with
other tongues, as the Spirit gave them
utterance.

5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem
Jews, devout men, out of every nation
under heaven.

6 Now when 3 this was noised abroad 3,
the multitude came together, and were
confounded, because that every man
heard them speak in his own language.
7 And they were B all 8 amazed and
marvelled, saying yone to anothery, Be-
hold, are not all these which speak Gali-
læans?

8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?

9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judæa, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,

10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and 5 strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,

11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.

12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?

13 Others mocking said, These men are full of 6new wine".

14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: 15 For these are not drunken, as ye 1 Thess. 5. suppose, 9 seeing it is but the third hour of the day.

23 Him, being delivered by the deter-
minate counsel and foreknowledge of God,

hands y have crucified and slain:
24 Whom God hath raised up, having
loosed the 11 pains 11 of death: because it
was not possible that he should be hold-
en of it.

25 For David speaketh concerning him,
I foresaw the Lord always before my
face, for he is on my right hand, that
I should not be moved:

and

26 Therefore did my heart rejoice,
my tongue was glad; moreover also my
flesh shall 12 rest in hope 12:

27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul
in 13 hell 13, neither wilt thou suffer thine
Holy One to see corruption.

28 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy 14 with 14 thy countenance.

29 15 Men and brethren 15, 16 || let me 16 freely speak unto you "of the patriarch David, that he 17 is both dead and buried 17, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day.

30 Therefore being a prophet, and
knowing that God had sworn with an
oath to him, that of the fruit of his
loins, Baccording to the flesh, he would
raise up Christ B to sit on his throne;
31 He 18 seeing this before 18 spake of
the resurrection of Christ, that B his
soul was not left in 13 hell 13, neither a ch. 1. 8.
his flesh did see corruption.

32 This Jesus hath God raised up,
a whereof we all are witnesses.
33 Therefore being 19 by 19 the right
hand of God exalted, and having re-
ceived of the Father 20 the promise of
the Holy Ghost 20, he hath shed forth
this, which ye now see and hear.

34 For David is not ascended into the
heavens but he saith himself, The
LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on
my right hand,

35 Until I make thy foes thy footstool. 36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
