Acts 2:14-36 - Peter's Sermon On The Day Of Pentecost
14 And Peter standing with the eleven, lifted up his voice and spoke to them: Judean men and all ye dwelling at Jerusalem, let this be known unto you, and know my words. 15 For these are not drunken, as you suppose; for it is the third hour of the day; 16 but this is that which has been spoken by the prophet Joel;
17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, I will pour out from my Spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams; 18 and upon my servants and my handmaidens I will pour out of my Spirit on those days, and they shall prophesy. 19 And I will give wonders in the heavens above, and signs on the earth beneath, blood and fire, and vapor of smoke. 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great day of the Lord shall come. 21 And it shall come to pass, that every one who may call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
22 Israelitish men, hear these words, Jesus the Nazarene, a man having been demonstrated unto you from God by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did through Him in your midst, as yourselves know; 23 Him by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, having been delivered, you having nailed up, slew through the hand of lawless men; 24 whom God raised up, loosing the pangs of death, because it was impossible that he should be held by it. 25 For David says in reference to him, I foresaw my Lord always before me, because he is on my right hand, in order that I may not be moved. 26 Therefore my heart rejoiced and my tongue was glad, and my flesh shall indeed still rest in hope, 27 because thou wilt not leave my soul in Hades, nor suffer thy Holy One to see corruption. 28 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt fill me with gladness with thy countenance.
29 Men, brethren, it is lawful to speak to you with boldness concerning the patriarch David, because he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. 30 Therefore being a prophet and knowing that God swore with an oath, that from the fruit of his loins One should sit upon the throne; 31 foreseeing he spoke concerning the resurrection of Christ, that He was not left in Hades, neither did His flesh see corruption.
32 This Jesus God raised up, whose witnesses we are. 33 Therefore on the right hand of God exalted, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, has poured out this which you both see and hear. 34 For David hath not ascended into the heavens, but he says, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, 35 until I may make thy enemies the footstool of thy feet.
36 Then let all the house of Israel assuredly know that God hath made this same Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.
