Acts 13:28-41

²⁸And having found no cause of death in him, they begged of Pilate that he might be slain.

²⁹And when they had fulfilled all things written concerning him, they took him down from the cross and put him in a sepulchre;

³⁰but God raised him from among the dead,

³¹who appeared for many days to those who had come up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are now his witnesses to the people.

³²And we declare unto you the glad tidings of the promise made to the fathers,

³³that God has fulfilled this to us their children, having raised up Jesus; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son: this day have I begotten thee.

³⁴But that he raised him from among the dead, no more to return to corruption, he spoke thus: I will give to you the faithful mercies of David.

³⁵Wherefore also he says in another, Thou wilt not suffer thy gracious one to see corruption.

³⁶For David indeed, having in his own generation ministered to the will of God, fell asleep, and was added to his fathers and saw corruption.

³⁷But he whom God raised up did not see corruption.

³⁸Be it known unto you, therefore, brethren, that through this man remission of sins is preached to you,

³⁹and from all things from which ye could not be justified in the law of Moses, in him every one that believes is justified.

⁴⁰See therefore that that which is spoken in the prophets do not come upon you,

⁴¹Behold, ye despisers, and wonder and perish; for I work a work in your days, a work which ye will in no wise believe if one declare it to you.
