2:15. For these are not drunk, as you suppose, seeing it is but the
third hour of the day:
2:16. But this is that which was spoken of by the prophet Joel:
2:17. And it shall come to pass, in the last days, (saith the Lord), I
will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your
daughters shall prophesy: and your young men shall see visions, and your
old men shall dream dreams.
2:18. And upon my servants indeed and upon my handmaids will I pour out
in those days of my spirit: and they shall prophesy.
2:19. And I will shew wonders in the heaven above, and signs on the
earth beneath: blood and fire, and vapour of smoke.
2:20. The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood,
before the great and manifest day of the Lord to come.
2:21. And it shalt come to pass, that whosoever shall call upon the name
of the Lord shall be saved.
2:22. Ye men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man
approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God
did by him, in the midst of you, as you also know:
2:23. This same being delivered up, by the determinate counsel and
foreknowledge of God, you by the hands of wicked men have crucified and
slain.
By the determinate, etc... God delivered up his Son; and his Son
delivered up himself, for the love of us, and for the sake of our
salvation; and so Christ's being delivered up was holy, and was God's
own determination. But they who betrayed and crucified him, did
wickedly, following therein their own malice and the instigation of the
devil; not the will and determination of God, who was by no means the
author of their wickedness; though he permitted it; because he could,
and did draw out of it so great a good, viz., the salvation of man.
2:24. Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the sorrows of hell, as it
was impossible that he should be holden by it.
Having loosed the sorrow, etc... Having overcome the grievous pains of
death and all the power of hell.
2:25. For David saith concerning him: I foresaw the Lord before my face:
because he is at my right hand, that I may not be moved.
2:26. For this my heart hath been glad, and my tongue hath rejoiced:
moreover my flesh also shall rest in hope.
2:27. Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell: nor suffer thy Holy
One to see corruption.
2:28. Thou hast made known to me the ways of life: thou shalt make me
full of joy with thy countenance.
2:29. Ye men, brethren, let me freely speak to you of the patriarch
David: that he died and was buried; and his sepulchre is with us to this
present say.
2:30. Whereas therefore he was a prophet and knew that God hath sworn to
him with an oath, that of the fruit of his loins one should sit upon his
throne.
2:31. Foreseeing this, he spoke of the resurrection of Christ. For
neither was he left in hell: neither did his flesh see corruption.
2:32. This Jesus hath God raised again, whereof all we are witnesses.
2:33. Being exalted therefore by the right hand of God and having
received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath poured
forth this which you see and hear.
2:34. For David ascended not into heaven; but he himself said: The Lord
said to my Lord: Sit thou on my right hand,
2:35. Until I make thy enemies thy footstool.
2:36. Therefore let all the house of Israel know most certainly that God
hath made both Lord and Christ, this same Jesus, whom you have
crucified.
