Acts 2:25-38

25For David says of Him, ‘1I saw the Lord continually before me, Because He is at my right hand, so that I will not be shaken.26Therefore my heart was glad and my tongue was overjoyed; Moreover my flesh also will live in hope;27For You will not abandon my soul to 2Hades, 3Nor will You 4allow Your 5Holy One to 6undergo decay.28You have made known to me the ways of life; You will make me full of gladness with Your presence.’

29“7Brothers, I may confidently say to you regarding the 8patriarch David that he both 9died and 10was buried, and 11his tomb is 12with us to this day. 30So because he was 13a prophet and knew that 14God had sworn to him with an oath to seat one 15of his descendants on his throne, 31he looked ahead and spoke of the resurrection of the 16Christ, that 17He was neither abandoned to Hades, nor did His flesh 18suffer decay. 32It is this Jesus whom 19God raised up, 20a fact to which we are all 21witnesses. 33Therefore, 22since He has been exalted 2324at the right hand of God, and 25has received 26the promise of the Holy Spirit from the Father, He has 27poured out this which you both see and hear. 34For it was not David who ascended into 28heaven, but he himself says: ‘29The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand,35Until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”’ 36Therefore let all the 30house of Israel know for certain that God has made Him both 31Lord and 32Christ--this Jesus 33whom you crucified.”

37Now when they heard this, they were 34pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “35Brothers, 36what are we to do?” 38Peter said to them, “37Repent, and each of you be 38baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
