Acts 13:35-49

³⁵Because he saith also in another psalm, Thou wilt not give thy Holy One to see corruption.

³⁶For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:

³⁷but he whom God raised up saw no corruption.

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

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

⁴⁰Beware therefore, lest that come upon you which is spoken in the prophets:

⁴¹Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish; For I work a work in your days, A work which ye shall in no wise believe, if one declare it unto you.

⁴²And as they went out, they besought that these words might be spoken to them the next sabbath.

⁴³Now when the synagogue broke up, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, urged them to continue in the grace of God.

⁴⁴And the next sabbath almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of God.

⁴⁵But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the things which were spoken by Paul, and blasphemed.

⁴⁶And Paul and Barnabas spake out boldly, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first be spoken to you. Seeing ye thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.

⁴⁷For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee for a light of the Gentiles, That thou shouldest be for salvation unto the uttermost part of the earth.

⁴⁸And as the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of God: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.

⁴⁹And the word of the Lord was spread abroad throughout all the region.
