Acts 13:25-42

²⁵And when Iohn had fulfilled his course, he saide, Whom ye thinke that I am, I am not he: but beholde, there commeth one after me, whose shooe of his feete I am not worthy to loose.

²⁶Yee men and brethren, children of the generation of Abraham, and whosoeuer among you feareth God, to you is the woorde of this saluation sent.

²⁷For the inhabitants of Hierusalem, and their rulers, because they knewe him not, nor yet the woordes of the Prophets, which are read euery Sabbath day, they haue fulfilled them in condemning him.

²⁸And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate to kill him.

²⁹And when they had fulfilled all things that were written of him, they tooke him downe from the tree, and put him in a sepulchre.

³⁰But God raised him vp from the dead.

³¹And hee was seene many dayes of them, which came vp with him from Galile to Hierusalem, which are his witnesses vnto the people.

³²And we declare vnto you, that touching the promise made vnto the fathers,

³³God hath fulfilled it vnto vs their children, in that he raised vp Iesus, euen as it is written in the seconde Psalme, Thou art my Sonne: this day haue I begotten thee.

³⁴Nowe as concerning that he raised him vp from the dead, no more to returne to corruption, he hath said thus, I wil giue you the holy things of Dauid, which are faithfull.

³⁵Wherefore hee sayeth also in another place, Thou wilt not suffer thine Holy one to see corruption.

³⁶Howbeit, Dauid after hee had serued his time by the counsell of God, hee slept, and was laid with his fathers, and sawe corruption.

³⁷But he whom God raised vp, sawe no corruption.

³⁸Be it knowen vnto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached vnto you the forgiuenesse of sinnes.

³⁹And from al things, from which ye could not be iustified by the Law of Moses, by him euery one that beleeueth, is iustified.

⁴⁰Beware therefore lest that come vpon you, which is spoken of in the Prophets,

⁴¹Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and vanish away: for I woorke a woorke in your daies, a woorke which yee shall not beleeue, if a man would declare it you.

⁴²And when they were come out of the Synagogue of the Iewes, the Gentiles besought, that they woulde preach these woordes to them the next Sabbath day.
