And they gave their lots. And the lot fell on Matthias; and he was counted with the eleven apostles.
and knowing the grace being given to me, James and Cephas and John, the ones thought to be pillars, gave right hands of fellowship to Barnabas and to me, that we go to the nations, but they to the circumcision;
being built up on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the cornerstone,
which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations, as now it was revealed to His holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit,
And indeed He gave the ones to be apostles; and the ones prophets; and the ones evangelists; and the ones shepherds and teachers;
for he waited for a city having foundations, of which the builder and maker is God.
But you, beloved ones, remember the words spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Rejoice over her, Heaven, and the holy apostles, and the prophets, because God judged your judgment on her.
From the east, three gates; from the north, three gates; from the south, three gates; and from the west, three gates.
