In context

20 “For it is written in the book of Psalms: ‘May his place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in it,’ and, ‘May another take his position.’

21 Therefore it is necessary to choose one of the men who have accompanied us the whole time the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

22 beginning from John’s baptism until the day Jesus was taken up from us. For one of these must become a witness with us of His resurrection.”

23 So they proposed two men: Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias.

24 And they prayed, “Lord, You know everyone’s heart. Show us which of these two You have chosen

25 to take up this ministry and apostleship, which Judas abandoned to go to his rightful place.”

26 Then they cast lots, and the lot fell to Matthias; so he was added to the eleven apostles.
