Acts 2:22-36
22Ye menG435 of IsraelG2475, hearG191 theseG3778 wordsG3588G3056; JesusG2424 of NazarethG3588G3480, a manG435 approvedG584 ofG575 GodG3588G2316 amongG1519 youG4771 byG584 miraclesG1411 andG2532 wondersG5059 andG2532 signsG4592, whichG3739 GodG3588G2316 didG4160 byG1223 himG846 inG1722 the midstG3319 of youG4771, asG2531 ye yourselvesG846 alsoG2532 knowG1492:
23HimG3778, being deliveredG1560 by theG1012 determinateG3724 counselG1012 andG2532 foreknowledgeG4268 of GodG3588G2316, ye have takenG2983, and byG1223 wickedG459 handsG5495 have crucifiedG4362 and slainG337:
24WhomG3739 GodG3588G2316 hath raised upG450, having loosedG3089 the painsG3588G5604 of deathG3588G2288: becauseG2530 it wasG1510 notG3756 possibleG1415 thatG2902 heG846 should be holdenG2902 ofG5259 itG846.
25ForG1063 DavidG1138 speakethG3004 concerningG1519 himG846, I foresawG4308 the LordG3588G2962 alwaysG3956 beforeG1799 my faceG1473, forG3754 he isG1510 onG1537 myG1473 right handG1188, thatG2443 I shouldG4531 notG3361 be movedG4531:
26ThereforeG1223 didG2165 myG1473 heartG3588G2588 rejoiceG2165, andG2532 myG1473 tongueG3588G1100 was gladG21; moreoverG2089 alsoG1161 myG1473 fleshG3588G4561 shall restG2681 inG1909 hopeG1680:
27BecauseG3754 thou wiltG1459 notG3756 leaveG1459 myG1473 soulG3588G5590 inG1519 hellG86, neitherG3761 wilt thou sufferG1325 thineG4771 Holy OneG3741 to seeG3708 corruptionG1312.
28Thou hast made knownG1107 to meG1473 the waysG3598 of lifeG2222; thou shalt makeG4137 meG1473 fullG4137 of joyG2167 withG3326 thyG4771 countenanceG3588G4383.
29MenG435 and brethrenG80, letG1832 meG3004 freelyG3954 speakG3004 untoG4314 youG4771 ofG4012 the patriarchG3588G3966 DavidG1138, thatG3754 he isG5053 bothG2532 deadG5053 andG2532 buriedG2290, andG2532 hisG846 sepulchreG3588G3418 isG1510 withG1722 usG1473 untoG891 thisG3778 dayG3588G2250.
30ThereforeG3767 beingG5225 a prophetG4396, andG2532 knowingG1492 thatG3754 GodG3588G2316 had swornG3660 with an oathG3727 to himG846, thatG3660 ofG1537 the fruitG2590 of hisG846 loinsG3588G3751, according toG2596 the fleshG4561, he would raise upG450 ChristG3588G5547 to sitG2523 onG1909 hisG846 throneG3588G2362;
31He seeing thisG4308 before spakeG2980 ofG4012 the resurrectionG3588G386 of ChristG3588G5547, thatG3754 hisG846 soulG3588G5590 wasG2641 notG3756 leftG2641 inG1519 hellG86, neitherG3761 hisG846 fleshG3588G4561 did seeG3708 corruptionG1312.
32ThisG3778 JesusG3588G2424 hathG450 GodG3588G2316 raised upG450, whereofG3739 weG1473 allG3956 areG1510 witnessesG3144.
33ThereforeG3767 beingG5312 by the right handG1188 of GodG3588G2316 exaltedG5312, andG5037 having receivedG2983 ofG3844 the FatherG3588G3962 the promiseG1860 of theG4151 HolyG40 GhostG4151, he hath shed forthG1632 thisG3778, whichG3739 yeG4771 nowG3568 seeG991 andG2532 hearG191.
34ForG1063 DavidG1138 isG305 notG3756 ascendedG305 intoG1519 the heavensG3588G3772: butG1161 he saithG3004 himselfG846, The LordG3588G2962 saidG3004 untoG3588G2962 myG1473 LordG3588G2962, Sit thouG2521 onG1537 myG1473 right handG1188,
35UntilG2193 I makeG5087 thyG4771 foesG2190 thyG4771 footstoolG5286.
36ThereforeG3767 letG1097 allG3956 the houseG3624 of IsraelG2474 knowG1097 assuredlyG806, thatG3754 GodG3588G2316 hath madeG4160 thatG3778 sameG846 JesusG3588G2424, whomG3739 yeG4771 have crucifiedG4717, bothG2532 LordG2962 andG2532 ChristG5547.
