28. You taught me how to live. You will come close to me and give me great joy.’ Psalm 16:8-11
29. “My brothers, I can tell you for sure about David, our great ancestor. He died, was buried, and his tomb is still here with us today.
30. He was a prophet and knew something that God had said. God had promised David that someone from his own family would sit on David’s throne as king.
31. David knew this before it happened. That is why he said this about that future king: ‘He was not left in the place of death. His body did not rot in the grave.’ David was talking about the Messiah rising from death.
32. So Jesus is the one God raised from death. We are all witnesses of this. We saw him.
33. Jesus was lifted up to heaven. Now he is with God, at God’s right side. The Father has given the Holy Spirit to him, as he promised. So Jesus has now poured out that Spirit. This is what you see and hear.
34. David was not the one who was lifted up to heaven. David himself said, ‘The Lord God said to my Lord: Sit at my right side,
35. until I put your enemies under your power.’ Psalm 110:1
36. “So, all the people of Israel should know this for certain: God has made Jesus to be Lord and Messiah. He is the man you nailed to the cross!”
