Acts 2:22-36

22“Fellow Israelites, listen to these words: This Jesus of Nazareth was a man attested to you by God with miracles, wonders, and signs that God did among you through him, just as you yourselves know.

23Though he was delivered up according to God’s determined plan and foreknowledge, you used lawless people to nail him to a cross and kill him.

24God raised him up, ending the pains of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by death.

25For David says of him: I saw the Lord ever before me; because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.

26Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices. Moreover, my flesh will rest in hope,

27because you will not abandon me in Hades or allow your holy one to see decay.

28You have revealed the paths of life to me; you will fill me with gladness in your presence.

29“Brothers and sisters, I can confidently speak to you about the patriarch David: He is both dead and buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.

30Since he was a prophet, he knew that God had sworn an oath to him to seat one of his descendants on his throne.

31Seeing what was to come, he spoke concerning the resurrection of the Messiah: He was not abandoned in Hades, and his flesh did not experience decay.

32“God has raised this Jesus; we are all witnesses of this.

33Therefore, since he has been exalted to the right hand of God and has received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit, he has poured out what you both see and hear.

34For it was not David who ascended into the heavens, but he himself says: The Lord declared to my Lord, ‘Sit at my right hand

35until I make your enemies your footstool.’

36“Therefore let all the house of Israel know with certainty that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.”
