Context of Acts 13:31
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, who 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.
