Acts 2:31 in Context — Acts 2
29 Hommes frères, qu’il me soit permis de vous dire librement, au sujet du patriarche David, qu’il est mort, qu’il a été enseveli, et que son sépulcre existe encore aujourd’hui parmi nous.
30 Comme il était prophète, et qu’il savait que Dieu lui avait promis avec serment de faire asseoir un de ses descendants sur son trône,
31 c’est la résurrection du Christ qu’il a prévue et annoncée, en disant qu’il ne serait pas abandonné dans le séjour des morts et que sa chair ne verrait pas la corruption.
32 C’est ce Jésus que Dieu a ressuscité; nous en sommes tous témoins.
33 Élevé par la droite de Dieu, il a reçu du Père le Saint-Esprit qui avait été promis, et il l’a répandu, comme vous le voyez et l’entendez.
