Deeds (Act) of Apostles 13:24-41

²⁴when John preached before the face of his coming the baptism of penance to all the people of Israel.

²⁵But when John ful filled his course, he said, I am not he, whom ye deem me to be; but lo! he cometh after me, and I am not worthy to do off or to unbind the shoes of his feet.

²⁶Brethren, and sons of the kind of Abraham, and which that in you dread God, to you the word of health is sent.

²⁷For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and princes of it, that knew not this Jesus, and the voices of prophets, that by every sabbath be read, deemed, and fulfilled;

²⁸and they found in him no cause of death, and asked of Pilate, that they should slay him.

²⁹And when they had ended all things that were written of him, they took him down off the tree, and laid him in a grave.

³⁰And God raised him from death in the third day;

³¹which was seen by many days to them that went up together with him from Galilee into Jerusalem, which be till now his witnesses to the people.

³²And we show to you the promise that was made to our fathers;

³³for God hath fulfilled this to their sons, and again-raised Jesus; as in the second psalm it is written, Thou art my Son, today I begat thee.

³⁴And he that again-raised him from death, that he should not turn again into corruption, said thus, For I shall give to you the holy true things of David.

³⁵Therefore and in another stead he saith, Thou shalt not give thine Holy to see corruption.

³⁶But David in his generation, when he had ministered to the will of God, died or slept, and was laid with his fathers, and saw corruption;

³⁷but he whom God raised from death, saw not corruption.

³⁸Therefore, brethren, be it known to you, that by him remission of sins is told to you,

³⁹from all sins, of which ye might not be justified in the law of Moses. In this each man that believeth, is justified.

⁴⁰Therefore see ye, that it come not to you, that is before-said in the prophets,

⁴¹Ye despisers, see ye, and wonder ye, and be ye scattered abroad; for I work a work in your days, a work that ye shall not believe, if any man shall tell it out to you.
