Acts 13:27-37

27For thoseG3588 who liveG2730 in JerusalemG2419, and their 1rulersG758, 2recognizingG50 neither Him norG2532 the 3declarationsG5456 of 4the prophetsG4396 which are 5readG314 everyG3956 SabbathG4521, fulfilledG4137 these by condemningG2919 Him.

28And though they foundG2147 noG3367 groundsG156 for putting Him to deathG2288, they 6askedG154 PilateG4091 that He be executedG337.

29WhenG5613 they had 7carriedG5055 outG5055 everythingG3956 that was writtenG1125 concerningG4012 Him, 8they tookG2507 Him downG2507 from the 910crossG3586 and 11laidG5087 Him in a tombG3419.

30But GodG2316 12raisedG1453 Him from the deadG3498;

31and for manyG4183 daysG2250 13He appearedG3708 to thoseG3588 who cameG4872 upG4872 withG4872 Him from GalileeG1056 to JerusalemG2419, the veryG3748 onesG3748 whoG3748 are nowG3568 14His witnessesG3144 to the peopleG2992.

32And we 15preachG2097 to you the goodG2097 newsG2097 of 16the promiseG1860 madeG1096 to the fathersG3962,

33that GodG2316 has fulfilledG1603 thisG3778 promise to thoseG3588 of us who are the descendantsG5043 by 17raisingG450 JesusG2424, as it is alsoG2532 writtenG1125 in the secondG1208 PsalmG5568: ‘18You are My SonG5207; todayG4594 I have fatheredG1080 You.’

34As for the fact that He 19raisedG450 Him from the deadG3498, neverG3371 againG3371 to returnG5290 to decayG1312, He has spokenG3004 inG3779 thisG3779 wayG3779: ‘20I will giveG1325 you the holyG3741 and faithfulG4103 mercies of DavidG1160.’

35ThereforeG1360, He alsoG2532 saysG3004 in anotherG2087 Psalm: ‘21You will not 22allowG1325 Your 23HolyG3741 OneG3741 to 24undergoG3708 decayG1312.’

36For 25DavidG1160, after he had 26servedG5256 God’sG2316 27purposeG1012 in his ownG2398 generationG1074, 28fellG2837 asleepG2837, and was 29buriedG4369 amongG4314 his fathersG3962 and 30underwentG3708 decayG1312;

37but He whomG3739 GodG2316 31raisedG1453 did not 32undergoG3708 decayG1312.
