32“Yes we proclaim to you the good news: the promise that was made to the fathers,
33God has fulfilled the same to us, their children, when He raised up Jesus; as also it stands written in the second Psalm: ‘You are my Son, today I have begotten you.’
34And that He raised Him from the dead, no longer to return to corruption, He has spoken thus, ‘I will give you the holy things guaranteed to David.’
35Further, it is stated elsewhere, ‘You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.’
36Now David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell asleep, was buried with his fathers, and saw decay;
37but the One whom God raised up did not see decay.
38Therefore, let it be known to you, men, brothers, that through this One forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you;
39and by Him everyone who believes is justified from everything you could not be justified from by the Law of Moses.
40So take care, lest there come upon you that which has been spoken in the prophets:
41‘Look you despisers, marvel and perish! For I am working a work in your days to which you will not give credence, even if someone were to explain it in detail to you.’ ”
42Now as the Jews were going out of the synagogue, the Gentiles implored repeatedly that these words might be spoken to them the next Sabbath.
43The synagogue service having been dismissed, many of the Jews and the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who started addressing them, urging them to continue in the grace of God.
44Well the next Sabbath almost the whole city was gathered to hear the Word of God.
45But when the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with envy and started speaking against the things said by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.
