Acts 13:24-34

²⁴John having first preached, before his coming, a baptism of reformation to all the people of Israel;

²⁵and as John was fulfilling the course, he said, Whom me do ye suppose to be? I am not he, but, lo, he doth come after me, of whom I am not worthy to loose the sandal of his feet.

²⁶'Men, brethren, sons of the race of Abraham, and those among you fearing God, to you was the word of this salvation sent,

²⁷for those dwelling in Jerusalem, and their chiefs, this one not having known, also the voices of the prophets, which every sabbath are being read — having judged him — did fulfil,

²⁸and no cause of death having found, they did ask of Pilate that he should be slain,

²⁹and when they did complete all the things written about him, having taken him down from the tree, they laid him in a tomb;

³⁰and God did raise him out of the dead,

³¹and he was seen for many days of those who did come up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.

³²'And we to you do proclaim good news — that the promise made unto the fathers,

³³God hath in full completed this to us their children, having raised up Jesus, as also in the second Psalm it hath been written, My Son thou art — I to-day have begotten thee.

³⁴'And that He did raise him up out of the dead, no more to return to corruption, he hath said thus — I will give to you the faithful kindnesses of David;
