33. Jesus was lifted up to heaven and is now at God’s right side. The Father has given the Holy Spirit to Jesus as he promised. So now Jesus has poured out that Spirit. This is what you see and hear.
34. David was not the one who was lifted up to heaven. But he said:‘The Lord said to my Lord:Sit by me at my right side,
35. until I put your enemies under your control.’ Psalm 110:1
36. “So, all the people of Israel should know this truly: God has made Jesus both Lord and Christ. He is the man you nailed to the cross!”
37. When the people heard this, they were sick at heart. They asked Peter and the other apostles, “What shall we do?”
38. Peter said to them, “Change your hearts and lives and be baptized, each one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39. This promise is for you. It is also for your children and for all who are far away. It is for everyone the Lord our God calls to himself.”
40. Peter warned them with many other words. He begged them, “Save yourselves from the evil of today’s people!”
41. Then those people who accepted what Peter said were baptized. About 3,000 people were added to the number of believers that day.
