Acts 2:23-33

23 This man was arrested in accordance with God's predetermined plan and foreknowledge; and, through the agency of persons not bound by the Torah, you nailed him up on a stake and killed him!
24 "But God has raised him up and freed him from the suffering of death; it was impossible that death could keep its hold on him.
25 For David says this about him: 'I saw ADONAI always before me, for he is at my right hand, so that I will not be shaken.
26 For this reason, my heart was glad; and my tongue rejoiced; and now my body too will live on in the certain hope
27 that you will not abandon me to Sh'ol or let your Holy One see decay.
28 You have made known to me the ways of life; you will fill me with joy by your presence.'
29 "Brothers, I know I can say to you frankly that the patriarch David died and was buried - his tomb is with us to this day.
30 Therefore, since he was a prophet and knew that God had sworn an oath to him that one of his descendants would sit on his throne,
31 he was speaking in advance about the resurrection of the Messiah, that it was he who was not abandoned in Sh'ol and whose flesh did not see decay.
32 God raised up this Yeshua! And we are all witnesses of it!
33 "Moreover, he has been exalted to the right hand of God; has received from the Father what he promised, namely, the Ruach HaKodesh; and has poured out this gift, which you are both seeing and hearing.
