Acts 2:34-40

English Standard Version

³⁴ For ^(A)David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says,

³⁶ Let all the house of Israel therefore know for certain that ^(C)God has made him ^(D)both Lord and Christ, this Jesus ^(E)whom you crucified.”

³⁷ Now when ^(F)they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, ^(G)what shall we do?” ³⁸ And Peter said to them, ^(H)“Repent and ^(I)be baptized every one of you ^(J)in the name of Jesus Christ ^(K)for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive ^(L)the gift of the Holy Spirit. ³⁹ For ^(M)the promise is for you and ^(N)for your children and for all ^(O)who are far off, everyone ^(P)whom the Lord our God calls to himself.” ⁴⁰ And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, ^(Q)“Save yourselves from this ^(R)crooked generation.”
