Amplified Bible
Acts 2:25-32
25For David says of Him, ‘I saw the Lord constantly before me; For He is at my right hand, so that I will not be shaken [from my state of security].
26Therefore my heart rejoiced and my tongue exulted exceedingly; Moreover my flesh also will live in hope [that is, will encamp in anticipation of the resurrection];
27For You will not forsake me and abandon my soul to Hades (the realm of the dead), Nor let Your Holy One undergo decay [after death].
28You have made known to me the ways of life; You will fill me [infusing my soul] with joy with Your presence.’
29“Brothers, I may confidently and freely say to you regarding the patriarch David that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.
30And so, being a prophet and knowing fully that God had sworn to him with an oath that He would seat one of his descendants on his throne,
31he foresaw and spoke [prophetically] of the resurrection of the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed), that He was not abandoned [in death] to Hades (the realm of the dead), nor did His body undergo decay.
32God raised this Jesus [bodily from the dead], and of that [fact] we are all witnesses.
