Acts

Acts 2:25–28

²⁵David says about Him:

‘I saw^f the Lord always before me;

because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.

²⁶Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;

my body also will dwell in hope,

²⁷because You will not abandon my soul to Hades,

nor will You let Your Holy One see decay.

²⁸You have made known to me the paths of life;

You will fill me with joy in Your presence.’^g
