AllianceBernstein Bond Fund, Inc. (the ?Fund?);
2. Based on my knowledge, this Report does not contain any untrue statement of

3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements and other financial
information included in this Report, fairly present in all material respects

flows) of the Fund as of, and for, the periods presented in this Report;
4. The Fund?s other certifying officer and I are responsible for establishing
and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 30a-3(c)
under the Investment Company Act) for the Fund and have:
a) designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our

including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others
within those entities, particularly during the period in which this
Report is being prepared;
b) evaluated the effectiveness of the Fund?s disclosure controls and
procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the
effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of a date
within 90 days prior to the filing date of this Report based on such
evaluation; and
c) disclosed in this Report any change in the Fund?s internal control
over financial reporting that occurred during the Fund?s most recent
fiscal half-year [or second fiscal half-year in the case of an annual
report] that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, the Fund?s internal control over financial
reporting; and
5. The Fund?s other certifying officer and I have disclosed to the Fund?s
auditors and the audit committee of the Fund?s board of directors:
a) all significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal
control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to
adversely affect the Fund?s ability to record, process, summarize,
and report financial information; and
b) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
employees who have a significant role in the Fund?s internal controls.
