¹⁵ ^q Lit In these daysAt this time Peter stood up in the midst of the brethren (a gathering of about one hundred and twenty^r Lit namespersons was there together), and said, ¹⁶ “Brethren, the Scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit foretold by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who became a guide to those who arrested Jesus. ¹⁷ For he was counted among us and received his share in this ministry.” ¹⁸ (Now this man acquired a field with the price of his wickedness, and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his intestines gushed out. ¹⁹ And it became known to all who were living in Jerusalem; so that in their own language that field was called Hakeldama, that is, Field of Blood.) ²⁰ “For it is written in the book of Psalms,‘LET HIS HOMESTEAD BE MADE DESOLATE, AND LET NO ONE DWELL IN IT’; and,‘LET ANOTHER MAN TAKE HIS^s Lit position as overseerOFFICE.’	15 Joh 21:23 Act 6:3 Act 9:30 Act 10:23 Act 11:1 Act 11:12 Act 11:26 Act 11:29 Act 12:17 Act 14:2 Act 15:1 Act 15:3 Act 15:22 Act 15:23 Act 15:32 Act 15:40 Act 16:2 Act 16:40 Act 17:6 Act 17:10 Act 17:14 Act 18:18 Act 18:27 Act 21:7 Act 21:17 Act 22:5 Act 28:14 Rom 1:13 16 Joh 13:18 Joh 17:12 Act 1:20 Mat 26:47 Mar 14:43 Luk 22:47 Joh 18:3 17 Joh 6:70 Act 1:25 Act 20:24 Act 21:19 18 Mat 27:3-10 Mat 26:14 19 Mat 27:8 Act 21:40 20 Psa 69:25 Psa 109:8
