Acts 2:14-36 - Peter's Sermon On The Day Of Pentecost

14 But Peter, stood up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them: You men of Judea, and all you who dwell at Jerusalem let me explain this to you. Listen to my words. 15 These men are not drunk as you suppose for it is only nine o'clock in the morning. 16 This is what the prophet Joel spoke about:

17 It will come to pass in the last days, says God, I will pour out from my Spirit upon all flesh. (Greek: apo, from) Your sons and your daughters will prophesy (proclaim God's Word). Your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams. 18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out (a portion from) (some of) my Spirit in those days and they will prophesy: (Joel 2:28) 19 I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath: blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke. 20 The sun will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable (awesome) Day of Jehovah arrives. (Joel 2:31) 21 It will come to pass, that whoever will call on the name of Jehovah will be saved. (Joel 2:32)

22 You men of Israel hear these words. Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved by God came among you with miracles and wonders and signs. God did these by him in your midst, as you also know: 23 You took this man and delivered him by the determined counsel (purpose) and foreknowledge of God. With wicked hands you impaled and murdered him. 24 God resurrected him, loosing the pains of death. This is because it was not possible that he should be held fast by it. 25 David spoke concerning him: 'I had Jehovah always before my face, for he is at my right hand, that I should not be shaken. (Psalm 16:8) 26 Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope: 27 Because you will not leave me in the grave, neither will you allow your Holy One to see corruption. (Psalm 16:10) 28 You have made known to me the ways of life, and you will fill me with joy with your presence.'

29 Men and brothers let me freely speak to you about the patriarch David that he is dead and buried. His grave is with us to this day. 30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne. 31 He seeing this before spoke about the resurrection of Christ. That he would not be left in the grave and his flesh did not see corruption.

32 God resurrected Jesus and we all witnessed this! 33 He is exalted to the right hand of God. He has received the promised Holy Spirit from the Father. So he poured out what you now see and hear. 34 For David has not ascended into heaven and yet he said: 'Jehovah said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand, 35 until I make your enemies your footstool.' (Psalm 110:1)

36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know for sure that God has made that same Jesus, whom you impaled, both Lord and Christ. (Acts 10:36)
