Deeds (Act) of Apostles 2:14-28

¹⁴But Peter stood with the eleven, and raised up his voice, and spake to them, Ye Jews, and all that dwell at Jerusalem (or and all who live in Jerusalem), be this known to you, and with ears perceive ye my words.

¹⁵For not as ye ween or not as ye guess, these be drunken, when it is the third hour of the day; (For it is not as ye think, that these be drunk, when it is but nine o’clock in the morning;)

¹⁶but this it is, that was said by the prophet Joel,

¹⁷And it shall be in the last days, the Lord saith, I shall pour out my Spirit on each flesh or I shall pour out my Spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your elders shall dream swevens (or your old men shall dream dreams).

¹⁸And on my servants and on mine handmaidens in those days I shall pour out (a portion) of my Spirit, and they shall prophesy.

¹⁹And I shall give great wonders in (the) heaven(s) above, and signs in (or on the) earth beneath, blood, and fire, and heat or vapour of smoke.

²⁰The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that the great and the open day of the Lord shall come.

²¹And it shall be, each man whichever shall call to help the name of the Lord or each man whoever shall in-call the name of the Lord, shall be safe (or shall be saved).

²²Ye men of Israel, hear ye these words. Jesus of Nazareth, a man proved of God before you by virtues, and wonders, and tokens, which God did by him in the middle of you, as ye know, (Israelites, listen to these words. Jesus of Nazareth, a man of God approved before you by works of power, or miracles, and wonders, and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye know,)

²³ye tormented, and killed him by the hands of wicked men, by counsel determined and betaken by the fore-knowing or by the prescience of God. (ye tormented, and killed him by the hands of wicked men, delivered up by the predetermined plan and in the foreknowledge of God.)

²⁴Whom God raised, when the sorrows of hell were unbound, by that that it was impossible that he were holden of it (or because it was impossible that he would be held by it).

²⁵For David saith of him, I saw afar the Lord before me (for)evermore, for he is on my right half, that I be not moved. (For David said of him, I saw the Lord always before me, for he is on my right side, or at my right hand, so that I shall not be moved.)

²⁶For this thing mine heart joyed, and my tongue made full out joy or gladded, and moreover my flesh shall rest in hope.

²⁷For thou shalt not leave my soul in hell, neither thou shalt give thine Holy (One) to see corruption.

²⁸Thou hast made known to me the ways of life, thou shalt full-fill me with mirth with thy face (or thou shalt fill me full of joy by thy presence).
