Acts 2:24-43

²⁴whom God hath raysed vp and lowsed the sorowes of deeth because it was vnpossible that he shuld be holden of it.

²⁵For David speaketh of him: Afore honde I sawe God alwayes before me: For he is on my ryght honde that I shuld not be moved.

²⁶Therfore dyd my hert reioyce and my tonge was glad. Moreover also my flesshe shall rest in hope

²⁷because thou wilt not leve my soul in hell nether wilt suffre thyne holye to se corrupcion.

²⁸Thou hast shewed me the wayes of lyfe and shalt make me full of ioye with thy countenaunce.

²⁹Men and brethren let me frely speake vnto you of the partriarke David: For he is both deed and buryed and his sepulcre remayneth with vs vnto this daye.

³⁰Therfore seinge he was a Prophet and knewe that God had sworne with an othe to him that the frute of his loynes shuld sit on his seat (in that Christ shulde ryse agayne in the flesshe)

³¹he sawe before: and spake in the resurreccion of Christ that his soule shulde not be left in hell: nether his flesse shuld se corrupcion.

³²This Iesus hath God raysyd vp wherof we all are witnesses.

³³Sence now that he by the right honde of God exalted is and hath receaved of the father the promyse of the holy goost he hath sheed forthe that which ye nowe se and heare.

³⁴For David is not ascendyd into heaven: but he sayde. The Lorde sayde to my Lorde sit on my right honde

³⁵vntill I make thy fooes thy fote stole.

³⁶So therfore let all the housse of Israel knowe for a suerty that God hath made the same Iesus whom ye have crucified lorde and Christ.

³⁷When they hearde this they were pricked in their hertes and sayd vnto Peter and vnto the other Apostles: Ye men and brethren what shall we do?

³⁸Peter sayde vnto them: repent and be baptised every one of you in the name of Iesus Christ for the remission of synnes and ye shall receave the gyfte of the holy goost.

³⁹For the promyse was made vnto you and to youre chyldren and to all that are afarre even as many as the Lorde oure God shall call.

⁴⁰And with many other wordes bare he witnes and exhorted them sayinge: Save youre selves from this vntowarde generacion.

⁴¹Then they that gladly receaved his preachynge were baptised: and the same daye ther were added vnto them aboute thre thousande soules.

⁴²And they continued in the Apostles doctrine and felloushippe and in breakinge of breed and in prayer.

⁴³And feare came over every soule. And many wondres and signes were shewed by the Apostles.
