17 And it will be in the last days, says God,

that I will pour out my Spirit on all people;

then your sons and your daughters will prophesy,

your young men will see visions,

and your old men will dream dreams.k

18 I will even pour out my Spirit

on my servants in those days, both men and women

and they will prophesy.l

19 I will display wonders in the heaven above

and signs on the earth below:

blood and fire and a cloud of smoke.

20 The sun will be turned to darkness

and the moon to bloodm

before the great and glorious day of the Lordn comes.

21 Then everyone who calls

on the name of the Lord will be saved.D,o

22 “Fellow Israelites, listen to these words: This Jesus of Nazareth was a man attested to you by God with miracles, wonders, and signs that God did among you through him, just as you yourselves know.p 23 Though he was delivered up according to God’s determined plan and foreknowledge, you usedE lawless people to nail him to a cross and kill him.q 24 God raised him up, ending the pains of death,r because it was not possible for him to be held by death. 25 For David says of him:

I saw the Lord ever before me;

because he is at my right hand,

I will not be shaken.

26 Therefore my heart is glad

and my tongue rejoices.

Moreover, my flesh will rest in hope,

27 because you will not abandon me in Hades

or allow your holy one to see decay.s

28 You have revealed the paths of life to me;

you will fill me with gladness

in your presence.F,t

29 “Brothers and sisters, I can confidently speak to you about the patriarch David: He is both dead and buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.u 30 Since he was a prophet, he knew that God had sworn an oath to him to seat one of his descendantsG on his throne.v 31 Seeing what was to come, he spoke concerning the resurrection of the Messiah: HeH was not abandoned in Hades, and his flesh did not experience decay.I,w

32 “God has raisedx this Jesus; we are all witnesses of this. 33 Therefore, since he has been exalted to the right hand of Gody and has received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit,a he has poured outb what you both see and hear. 34 For it was not David who ascended into the heavens, but he himself says:

The Lord declared to my Lord,

‘Sit at my right hand

35 until I make your enemies your footstool.’A,c

36 “Therefore let all the house of Israel know with certainty that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.”d
