Acts 2:22-36

22Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus the Nazaraean, a man borne witness to by 1God to you by works of power and wonders and signs, which 2God wrought by him in your midst, as yourselves know

23— him, given up by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of 3God, ye, by [the] hand of lawless [men], have crucified and slain.

24Whom 4God has raised up, having loosed the pains of death, inasmuch as it was not possible that he should be held by its power;

25for David says as to him, I foresaw the Lord continually before me, because he is at my right hand that I may not be moved.

26Therefore has my heart rejoiced and my tongue exulted; yea more, my flesh also shall dwell in hope,

27for thou wilt not leave my soul in hades, nor wilt thou give thy gracious one to see corruption.

28Thou hast made known to me [the] paths of life, thou wilt fill me with joy with thy countenance.

29Brethren, let it be allowed to speak with freedom to you concerning the patriarch David, that he has both died and been buried, and his monument is amongst us unto this day.

30Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that 5God had sworn to him with an oath, of the fruit of his loins to set upon his throne;

31he, seeing [it] before, spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, that neither has he been left in hades nor his flesh seen corruption.

32This Jesus has 6God raised up, whereof all we are witnesses.

33Having therefore been exalted by the right hand of 7God, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this which ye behold and hear.

34For David has not ascended into the heavens, but he says himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit at my right hand

35until I have put thine enemies [to be] the footstool of thy feet.

36Let the whole house of Israel therefore know assuredly that 8God has made him, this Jesus whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
