Acts 2:25-31
New American Standard Bible 1995
25 For David says of Him,
‘(A)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 (B)Hades,
(C)Nor [a]allow Your [b]Holy One to [c]undergo decay.
28 ‘You have made known to me the ways of life;
You will make me full of gladness with Your presence.’
29 “[d]Brethren, I may confidently say to you regarding the (D)patriarch David that he both (E)died and (F)was buried, and (G)his tomb is [e]with us to this day. 30 And so, because he was (H)a prophet and knew that (I)God had sworn to him with an oath to seat one [f]of his descendants on his throne, 31 he looked ahead and spoke of the resurrection of [g]the Christ, that (J)He was neither abandoned to Hades, nor did His flesh [h]suffer decay.
