Acts 2:29-40
Holman Christian Standard Bible
29 “Brothers, I can confidently speak to you about the patriarch David: He is both dead and buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.(A) 30 Since he was a prophet, he knew that God had sworn an oath to him to seat one of his descendants[a][b] on his throne.(B) 31 Seeing this in advance, he spoke concerning the resurrection of the Messiah:
32 “God has resurrected(D) this Jesus. We are all witnesses of this. 33 Therefore, since He has been exalted to the right hand of God(E) and has received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit,(F) He has poured out(G) what you both see and hear. 34 For it was not David who ascended into the heavens, but he himself says:
The Lord declared to my Lord,
‘Sit at My right hand
35 until I make Your enemies Your footstool.’(H)[e]
36 “Therefore let all the house of Israel know with certainty that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah!”(I)
Forgiveness through the Messiah
37 When they heard this, they came under deep conviction[f] and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles: “Brothers, what must we do?”(J)
38 “Repent,”(K) Peter said to them, “and be baptized,(L) each of you, in the name(M) of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is for you and for your children, and for all who are far off,[g](N) as many as the Lord our God will call.” 40 And with many other words he testified and strongly urged them, saying, “Be saved from this corrupt[h] generation!”(O)

English Standard Version
29 “Brothers, I may say to you with confidence about (A)the patriarch David (B)that he both died and (C)was buried, and (D)his tomb is with us to this day. 30 (E)Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that (F)God had sworn with an oath to him that he would set one of his descendants on his throne, 31 he foresaw and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that (G)he was not abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption. 32 This Jesus (H)God raised up, (I)and of that we all are witnesses. 33 (J)Being therefore (K)exalted at the right hand of God, and having received from (L)the Father (M)the promise of the Holy Spirit, (N)he has poured out this that you yourselves are seeing and hearing. 34 For (O)David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says,
(P)“‘The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at my right hand,
35 until I make your enemies your footstool.”’
36 Let all the house of Israel therefore know for certain that (Q)God has made him (R)both Lord and Christ, this Jesus (S)whom you crucified.”
37 Now when (T)they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, (U)what shall we do?” 38 And Peter said to them, (V)“Repent and (W)be baptized every one of you (X)in the name of Jesus Christ (Y)for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive (Z)the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For (AA)the promise is for you and (AB)for your children and for all (AC)who are far off, everyone (AD)whom the Lord our God calls to himself.” 40 And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, (AE)“Save yourselves from this (AF)crooked generation.”
