And when the hour had come, He sat down, and the twelve apostles with Him.

And they cast their lots, and the lot fell on Matthias. And he was numbered with the eleven apostles.

And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,

And as He sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, Jacob, John, and Andrew questioned Him privately,

One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to Him,

Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn Andrew and Philip told Jesus.

And going on from there, He saw two other brothers, Jacob the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. And He called them,

And after six days Jesus took Peter, Jacob, and John his brother, and led them up into a high mountain by themselves;

Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples were together.

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show to His servants; things which must happen quickly. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John,

I, John, both your brother and companion in the affliction and kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was on the island that is called Patmos because of the Word of God and because of the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Now I, John, saw and heard these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to do homage before the feet of the angel who showed me these things.
