Acts 2:32

God raised this Jesus, to whom we all be witnesses.

Wycliffe Modern Spelling

In The King James Version

This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.

In Context

31he seeing afar spake of the resurrection of Christ (or he seeing far ahead spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah), for neither he was left in hell, neither his flesh saw corruption.

33Therefore he was enhanced by the right hand of God, and through the promise of the Holy Ghost that he took of the Father, he shedded out this Spirit, that ye see and hear. (And so he was exalted, or raised up, by the right hand of God, and through the promise of the Holy Spirit that he received from the Father, he poured out this Spirit, that ye now see and hear.)
