The Acts 2:18-35 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

18. yea, even upon my bondmen and upon my bondwomen in those days will I pour out of my Spirit, and they shall prophesy.

19. And I will give wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:

20. the sun shall be changed to darkness and the moon to blood, before the great and gloriously appearing day of the Lord come.

21. And it shall be that whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

22. Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus the Nazaraean, a man borne witness to by God to you by works of power and wonders and signs, which God wrought by him in your midst, as yourselves know

23. --him, given up by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye, by the hand of lawless men, have crucified and slain.

24. Whom God has raised up, having loosed the pains of death, inasmuch as it was not possible that he should be held by its power;

25. for David says as to him, I foresaw the Lord continually before me, because he is at my right hand that I may not be moved.

26. Therefore has my heart rejoiced and my tongue exulted; yea more, my flesh also shall dwell in hope,

27. for thou wilt not leave my soul in hades, nor wilt thou give thy gracious one to see corruption.

28. Thou hast made known to me the paths of life, thou wilt fill me with joy with thy countenance.

29. Brethren, let it be allowed to speak with freedom to you concerning the patriarch David, that he has both died and been buried, and his monument is amongst us unto this day.

30. Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath, of the fruit of his loins to set upon his throne;

31. he, seeing it before, spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, that neither has he been left in hades nor his flesh seen corruption.

32. This Jesus has God raised up, whereof all we are witnesses.

33. Having therefore been exalted by the right hand of God, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this which ye behold and hear.

34. For David has not ascended into the heavens, but he says himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit at my right hand

35. until I have put thine enemies to be the footstool of thy feet.
