Acts 13:19-42

¹⁹And he destroyed .vii. nacions in the londe of Canaan and devided their londe to them by lot.

²⁰And after warde he gave vnto them iudges aboute the space of .iiii.C. and .l. yeres vnto the tyme of Samuel the Prophet.

²¹And after that they desyred a kinge and God gave vnto them Saul the sonne of Cis a man of the tribe of Beniamin by the space of .xl. yeres.

²²And after he had put him doune he set vp David to be their kynge of whome he reported sayinge: I have founde David the sonne of Iesse a man after myne awne hert he shall fulfill all my will.

²³Of this manes seed hath God (accordinge to his promes) brought forth to the people of Israel a saviour one Iesus

²⁴when Iohn had fyrst preached before his cominge the baptyme of repentaunce to Israel.

²⁵And when Iohn had fulfylled his course he sayde: whome ye thinke that I am the same am I not. But beholde ther cometh one after me whose shewes of his fete I am not worthy to lowse.

²⁶Ye men and brethren chyldren of the generacion of Abraham and whosoever amonge you feareth God to you is this worde of salvacion sent.

²⁷The inhabiters of Ierusalem and their rulers because they knewe him not nor yet the voyces of the Prophetes which are redde every Saboth daye they have fulfilled them in condempninge him.

²⁸And when they founde no cause of deeth in him yet desyred they Pylate to kyll him.

²⁹And when they had fulfilled all that were written of him they toke him doune from the tree and put him in a sepulcre.

³⁰But God raysed him agayne from deeth

³¹and he was sene many dayes of them which came with him from Galile to Ierusalem. Which are his witnesses vnto the people.

³²And we declare vnto you how that the promes made vnto the fathers

³³God hath fulfilled vnto vs their chyldren in that he reysed vp Iesus agayne even as it is written in the fyrste psalme: Thou arte my sonne this same daye begat I the.

³⁴As concernynge that he reysed him vp from deeth now no more to returne to corrupcion he sayde on this wyse: The holy promyses made to David I will geve them faithfully to you.

³⁵Wherfore he saith also in another place: Thou shalt not soffre thyne holye to se corrupcion.

³⁶Howbe it David after he had in his tyme fulfilled the will of God he slepte and was layde with his fathers and sawe corrupcion.

³⁷But he whom God reysed agayne sawe no corrupcion.

³⁸Be it knowne vnto you therfore ye men and brethren that thorow this man is preached vnto you the forgevenes of synnes

³⁹and that by him are all that beleve iustified from all thinges from the which ye coulde not be iustified by the lawe of Moses.

⁴⁰Beware therfore lest that fall on you which is spoken of in the Prophetes:

⁴¹Beholde ye despisers and wonder and perishe ye: for I do aworke in youre dayes which ye shall not beleve yf a man wolde declare it you.

⁴²When they were come out of the Synagoge of the Iewes the getyls besought that they wolde preache the worde to them bitwene the Saboth dayes.
