New Testament

Acts 2:18-27 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

18. Even on my servants, both men and women,I will pour out my Spirit in those days,and they will prophesy.

19. I will show wonders in the heavens aboveand signs on the earth below,blood and fire and billows of smoke.

20. The sun will be turned to darknessand the moon to bloodbefore the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord.

21. And everyone who callson the name of the Lord will be saved.”

22. ‘Fellow Israelites, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a man accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know.

23. This man was handed over to you by God’s deliberate plan and foreknowledge; and you, with the help of wicked men, put him to death by nailing him to the cross.

24. But God raised him from the dead, freeing him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him.

25. David said about him:‘ “I saw the Lord always before me.Because he is at my right hand,I will not be shaken.

26. Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;my body also will rest in hope,

27. because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,you will not let your holy one see decay.
