Acts 2:24-32
New American Standard Bible
24 [a]But (A)God raised Him from the dead, putting an end to the [b]agony of death, since it (B)was impossible for Him to be held [c]in its power. 25 For David says of Him,
‘(C)I saw the Lord continually before me,
Because He is at my right hand, so that I will not be shaken.
26 Therefore my heart was glad and my tongue was overjoyed;
Moreover my flesh also will live in hope;
27 For You will not abandon my soul to (D)Hades,
(E)Nor will You [d]allow Your [e]Holy One to [f]undergo decay.
28 You have made known to me the ways of life;
You will make me full of gladness with Your presence.’
29 “[g]Brothers, I may confidently say to you regarding the (F)patriarch David that he both (G)died and (H)was buried, and (I)his tomb is [h]with us to this day. 30 So because he was (J)a prophet and knew that (K)God had sworn to him with an oath to seat one [i]of his descendants on his throne, 31 he looked ahead and spoke of the resurrection of the [j]Christ, that (L)He was neither abandoned to Hades, nor did His flesh [k]suffer decay. 32 It is this Jesus whom (M)God raised up, [l]a fact to which we are all (N)witnesses.
