24 (A)But God raised him from death, setting him free from its power, because it was impossible that death should hold him prisoner. 25 (B)For David said about him,
‘I saw the Lord before me at all times;
he is near me, and I will not be troubled.
26 And so I am filled with gladness,
and my words are full of joy.
And I, mortal though I am,
will rest assured in hope,
27 because you will not abandon me in the world of the dead;
you will not allow your faithful servant to rot in the grave.
28 You have shown me the paths that lead to life,
and your presence will fill me with joy.’
29 “My friends, I must speak to you plainly about our famous ancestor King David. He died and was buried, and his grave is here with us to this very day. 30 (C)He was a prophet, and he knew what God had promised him: God had made a vow that he would make one of David's descendants a king, just as David was. 31 David saw what God was going to do in the future, and so he spoke about the resurrection of the Messiah when he said,
‘He was not abandoned in the world of the dead;
his body did not rot in the grave.’
32 God has raised this very Jesus from death, and we are all witnesses to this fact.

24 But God raised him from the dead,(A) freeing him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him.(B) 25 David said about him:
“‘I saw the Lord always before me.
Because he is at my right hand,
I will not be shaken.
26 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;
my body also will rest in hope,
27 because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,
you will not let your holy one see decay.(C)
28 You have made known to me the paths of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence.’[a](D)
29 “Fellow Israelites,(E) I can tell you confidently that the patriarch(F) David died and was buried,(G) and his tomb is here(H) to this day. 30 But he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that he would place one of his descendants on his throne.(I) 31 Seeing what was to come, he spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, that he was not abandoned to the realm of the dead, nor did his body see decay.(J) 32 God has raised this Jesus to life,(K) and we are all witnesses(L) of it.
