Acts 13:27-37

27Since the residents of Jerusalem and their rulers did not recognize him or the sayings of the prophets that are read every Sabbath, they have fulfilled their words by condemning him.

28Though they found no grounds for the death sentence, they asked Pilate to have him killed.

29When they had carried out all that had been written about him, they took him down from the tree and put him in a tomb.

30But God raised him from the dead,

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

32And we ourselves proclaim to you the good news of the promise that was made to our ancestors.

33God has fulfilled this for us, their children, by raising up Jesus, as it is written in the second Psalm: You are my Son; today I have become your Father.

34As to his raising him from the dead, never to return to decay, he has spoken in this way, I will give you the holy and sure promises of David.

35Therefore he also says in another passage, You will not let your Holy One see decay.

36For David, after serving God’s purpose in his own generation, fell asleep, was buried with his fathers, and decayed,

37but the one God raised up did not decay.
