When he had said this, as they were looking on,
he was lifted up, and a cloud took him from their sight.
While they were looking intently at the sky as he was going,
suddenly two men dressed in white garments stood beside them.
They said, “Men of Galilee, why are you standing there looking at the sky? This Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven
will return in the same way as you have seen him going into heaven. (Reading 1)

Als er das gesagt hatte, wurde er vor ihren Augen emporgehoben, und eine Wolke nahm ihn auf und entzog ihn ihren Blicken. Während sie unverwandt ihm nach zum Himmel emporschauten, standen plötzlich zwei Männer in weißen Gewändern bei ihnen und sagten: Ihr Männer von Galiläa, was steht ihr da und schaut zum Himmel empor? Dieser Jesus, der von euch ging und in den Himmel aufgenommen wurde, wird ebenso wiederkommen, wie ihr ihn habt zum Himmel hingehen sehen. (Lesung)

ReplyDeleteI love this Bible passage because Jesus will come back the way he left earth. Whenever I see big clouds I have to think of this.
