²³ This man was handed over to you by God’s deliberate plan and foreknowledge;^(A) and you, with the help of wicked men,^[a] put him to death by nailing him to the cross.^{(B) 24} But God raised him from the dead,^(C) freeing him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him.^{(D) 25} David said about him:

²⁹ “Fellow Israelites,^(G) I can tell you confidently that the patriarch^(H) David died and was buried,^(I) and his tomb is here^(J) to this day. ³⁰ 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.^{(K) 31} Seeing what was to come, he spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, that he was not abandoned to the realm of the dead, nor did his body see decay.^{(L) 32} God has raised this Jesus to life,^(M) and we are all witnesses^(N) of it. ³³ Exalted^(O) to the right hand of God,^(P) he has received from the Father^(Q) the promised Holy Spirit^(R) and has poured out^(S) what you now see and hear. ³⁴ For David did not ascend to heaven, and yet he said,

¹⁰ then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth,^(A) whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead,^(B) that this man stands before you healed.

³⁰ The God of our ancestors^(A) raised Jesus from the dead^(B)—whom you killed by hanging him on a cross.^{(C) 31} God exalted him to his own right hand^(D) as Prince and Savior^(E) that he might bring Israel to repentance and forgive their sins.^(F)

⁵² Was there ever a prophet your ancestors did not persecute?^(A) They even killed those who predicted the coming of the Righteous One. And now you have betrayed and murdered him^(B)—

³⁹ “We are witnesses^(A) of everything he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They killed him by hanging him on a cross,^{(B) 40} but God raised him from the dead^(C) on the third day and caused him to be seen.
