Acts 13:26-33

26Brothers, descendants of Abraham’s family, and those Gentiles among you who fear God, the message of this salvation has been sent to us.

27For the people who live in Jerusalem and their rulers did not recognize him, and they fulfilled the sayings of the prophets that are read every Sabbath by condemning him.

28Though they found no basis for a death sentence, they asked Pilate to have him executed.

29When they had accomplished everything that was written about him, they took him down from the cross and placed him in a tomb.

30But God raised him from the dead,

31and for many days he appeared to those who had accompanied him from Galilee to Jerusalem. These are now his witnesses to the people.

32And we proclaim to you the good news about the promise to our ancestors,

33that this promise God has fulfilled to us, their children, by raising Jesus, as also it is written in the second psalm, ‘You are my Son; today I have fathered you.’
