God’s Word Translation
Acts 13:26-33
26“Brothers—descendants of Abraham and converts to Judaism—the message that God saves people was sent to us.
27The people who live in Jerusalem and their rulers didn’t know who Jesus was. They didn’t understand the prophets’ messages, which are read every day of rest—a holy day. So they condemned Jesus and fulfilled what the prophets had said.
28Although they couldn’t find any good reason to kill him, they asked Pilate to have him executed.
29When they had finished doing everything that was written about him, they took him down from the cross and placed him in a tomb.
30But God brought him back to life,
31and for many days he appeared to those who had come with him to Jerusalem from Galilee. These people are now witnesses and are testifying to the Jewish people about him.
32We are telling you the Good News: What God promised our ancestors has happened.
33God has fulfilled the promise for us, their descendants, by bringing Jesus back to life. This is what Scripture says in the second psalm: ‘You are my Son. Today I have become your Father.’
