Acts 1:20-26

“In the Book of Psalms,” Peter said, “this is written: ‘May his place be empty; leave no one to live in it.’ And it is also written: ‘Let another man replace him as leader.’ “So now a man must become a witness with us of Jesus’ being raised from the dead. He must be one of the men who were part of our group during all the time the Lord Jesus was among us—from the time John was baptizing people until the day Jesus was taken up from us to heaven.” They put the names of two men before the group. One was Joseph Barsabbas, who was also called Justus. The other was Matthias. The apostles prayed, “Lord, you know the thoughts of everyone. Show us which one of these two you have chosen to do this work. Show us who should be an apostle in place of Judas, who turned away and went where he belongs.” Then they used lots to choose between them, and the lots showed that Matthias was the one. So he became an apostle with the other eleven.
