New Testament

Acts 2:21-29 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

21. 'And it shall be that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'

22. "Men of Israel, listen to these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a man attested to you by God with miracles and wonders and signs which God performed through Him in your midst, just as you yourselves know-

23. this Man, delivered over by the predetermined plan and foreknowledge of God, you nailed to a cross by the hands of godless men and put Him to death.

24. But God raised Him up again, putting an end to the agony of death, since it was impossible for Him to be held in its power.

25. For David says of Him, 'I saw the Lord always in my presence; For He is at my right hand, so that I will not be shaken.

26. 'Therefore my heart was glad and my tongue exulted; Moreover my flesh also will live in hope;

27. Because You will not abandon my soul to Hades, Nor allow Your Holy One to undergo decay.

28. 'You have made known to me the ways of life; You will make me full of gladness with Your presence.'

29. "Brethren, I may confidently say to you regarding the patriarch David that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.
