29 Men, brethren! may it be permitted to tell you boldly about the forefather David, that he died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.

30 And being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him from the fruit of his loins, to raise up Christ in the flesh, and to set him on his throne,

31 He said before of the resurrection of Christ, that His soul was not left in hell, and His flesh did not see corruption.

32 This Jesus God raised up, of which we are all witnesses.

33 Therefore he, having been lifted up by the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, poured out these things which ye now see and hear.

34 For David did not ascend into heaven; but he himself saith, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand;

35 Till I make thy enemies thy footstool.

36 Know therefore with certainty, all the house of Israel, that God has made this Jesus, whom you have crucified, Lord and Christ.

37 And when they heard this, they were pricked in their hearts, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, 'What shall we do, men brethren?

38 And Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins. and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.

40 And with many other words he testified and exhorted, saying, 'Be saved from this perverse generation.'

41 So those who gladly received his word were baptized, and there were joined that day about three thousand souls.

42 And they continued constantly in the teaching of the apostles, in fellowship, and in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.
