Acts 13:27-44

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. 38ThereforeG3767 let it be knownG1110 to you, 33brothersG435G80, that 34throughG1223 35Him forgivenessG859 of sinsG266 is proclaimedG2605 to you, 39and 36throughG1722 Him 37everyoneG3956 who believesG4100 is 38freedG1344 from allG3956 thingsG3956, from whichG3739 you couldG1410 not be 39freedG1344 40throughG1722 the LawG3551 of MosesG3475. 40ThereforeG3767, seeG991 that the thingG3004 spokenG3004 of 41in the ProphetsG4396 does not comeG1904 uponG1904 you:41‘42LookG3708, you scoffersG2707, and beG2296 astonishedG2296, and 43perishG853; For I am accomplishingG2038 a workG2041 in your daysG2250, A workG2041 whichG3739 you will neverG3756G3361 believeG4100, thoughG1437 someoneG5100 should describeG1555 it to you.’”

42As 44Paul and Barnabas were goingG1826 outG1826, the people repeatedly beggedG3870 to have theseG3778 45thingsG4487 spokenG2980 to them the nextG3342 46SabbathG4521. 43NowG1161 when the meeting of the synagogueG4864 had brokenG3089 upG3089, manyG4183 of the JewsG2453 and the 47God-fearingG4576 4849proselytesG4339 followedG190 PaulG3972 and BarnabasG921, whoG3748 were speakingG4354 to them and urgingG3982 them to continueG4357 in 50the graceG5485 of GodG2316.

44The nextG2064 51SabbathG4521 nearlyG4975 allG3956 the cityG4172 assembledG4863 to hearG191 the wordG3056 of 52the LordG2316.
