Acts 2:24-32

241But 2God raised Him up again, putting an end to the 3agony of death, since it 4was impossible for Him to be held 5in its power. 25For David says of Him, ‘6I saw the Lord always in my presence; For He is at my right hand, so that I will not be shaken.26Therefore my heart was glad and my tongue exulted; Moreover my flesh also will live in hope;27Because You will not abandon my soul to 7Hades, 8Nor 9allow Your 10Holy One to 11undergo decay.28You have made known to me the ways of life; You will make me full of gladness with Your presence.’

29“12Brethren, I may confidently say to you regarding the 13patriarch David that he both 14died and 15was buried, and 16his tomb is 17with us to this day. 30And so, because he was 18a prophet and knew that 19God had sworn to him with an oath to seat one 20of his descendants on his throne, 31he looked ahead and spoke of the resurrection of 21the Christ, that 22He was neither abandoned to Hades, nor did His flesh 23suffer decay. 32This Jesus 24God raised up again, to which we are all 25witnesses.
