Acts 2:29-31
1599 Geneva Bible
29 Men and brethren, I may boldly speak unto you of the Patriarch David, (A)that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulcher remaineth with us unto this day.
30 Therefore, seeing he was a Prophet, and knew that God had (B)[a]sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins he would raise up Christ concerning the flesh, to set him upon his throne.
31 He knowing this before, spake of the resurrection of Christ, that (C)his soul should not be left in grave, neither his flesh should see corruption.
