“Brothers, I can tell you
confidently that the patriarch David died and was buried, and his
tomb is here to this day. But he was a prophet and knew that God had
promised him on oath that he would place one of his descendants on
his throne. Seeing what was ahead, he spoke of the resurrection of
the Christ, that he was not abandoned to the grave, nor did his body
see decay. God has raised this Jesus to life, and we are all
witnesses of the fact. Exalted to the right hand of God, he has received from the
Father the promised Holy Spirit and has poured out what you now see
and hear. For David did not ascend to heaven, and yet he said,
The Lord said to my Lord: 'Sit at my right hand
until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.'
Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made
this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.”
