Acts 13:17-35
17TheG3588 GodG2316 ofG1537 thisG3778 peopleG2992 IsraelG2474 choseG1586 ourG2316 fathersG3962, andG2532 exaltedG5312 theG3588 peopleG2992 whenG2532 theyG846 sojourned inG1722 theG3588 landG1093 ofG1537 EgyptG125, andG2532 withG3326 a highG5308 armG1023 ledG1806 heG2532 themG846 forth outG1537 ofG1537 itG846.
18AndG2532 forG1722 aboutG5613 theG3588 timeG5550 ofG1722 fortyG5063 years suffered heG2532 theirG846 manners inG1722 theG3588 wildernessG2048.
19AndG2532 whenG2532 heG2532 had destroyedG2507 sevenG2033 nationsG1484 inG1722 theG3588 landG1093 ofG1093 CanaanG5477, heG2532 gave themG846 theirG846 landG1093 forG1722 anG2532 inheritanceG2624, forG1722 aboutG1722 four hundred andG2532 fifty years:
20andG2532 afterG3326 theseG3778 thingsG3778 heG2532 gaveG1325 themG1325 judgesG2923 untilG2193 SamuelG4545 theG2532 prophetG4396.
21AndG2532 afterward theyG846 askedG154 forG154 a kingG935: andG2532 GodG2316 gaveG1325 unto themG846 SaulG4549 theG3588 sonG5207 ofG5207 KishG2797, a manG435 ofG5207 theG3588 tribeG5443 ofG5207 BenjaminG958, forG154 theG3588 space ofG5207 fortyG5062 yearsG2094.
22AndG2532 whenG2532 heG2532 had removedG3179 himG846, heG2532 raisedG1453 upG1453 DavidG1138 toG1519 beG2532 theirG846 kingG935; toG1519 whomG3739 alsoG2532 heG2532 bare witnessG3140, andG2532 saidG3004, IG1473 have foundG2147 DavidG1138 theG3956 son ofG435 JesseG2421, a manG435 afterG2596 myG3956 heartG2588, whoG3739 shallG2532 doG4160 allG3956 myG3956 willG2307.
23OfG575 thisG3778 man’sG3778 seedG4690 hath GodG2316 accordingG2596 toG2596 promiseG1860 broughtG71 unto IsraelG2474 a Saviour, JesusG2424;
24whenG846 JohnG2491 had first preached beforeG4253 hisG846 comingG1529 theG3956 baptismG908 ofG3956 repentanceG3341 toG846 allG3956 theG3956 peopleG2992 ofG3956 IsraelG2474.
25AndG1161 asG5613 JohnG2491 wasG1510 fulfilling hisG3708 courseG1408, heG3739 saidG3004, WhatG5101 supposeG5101 ye thatG3739 IG1473 amG1510? IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 heG3739. ButG1161 beholdG2400, thereG1510 cometh oneG3739 afterG3326 meG3004, theG3588 shoesG5266 ofG3004 whoseG3739 feetG4228 IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 worthyG514 toG3004 unloose.
26BrethrenG80, childrenG1085 ofG5207 theG3588 stock ofG5207 AbrahamG11, andG2532 thoseG3588 amongG1722 youG5210 thatG3778 fearG5399 GodG2316, toG2532 usG1722 is theG3588 wordG3056 ofG5207 thisG3778 salvationG4991 sentG1821 forthG1821.
27ForG1063 theyG846 thatG3778 dwellG2730 inG1722 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 theirG846 rulersG758, becauseG1063 theyG846 knew himG846 notG2532, norG2532 theG3956 voicesG5456 ofG3956 theG3956 prophetsG4396 whichG3588 are readG314 everyG3956 sabbathG4521, fulfilledG4137 themG846 byG1722 condemningG2919 himG846.
28AndG2532 thoughG2532 theyG846 foundG2147 noG3367 causeG156 ofG2532 deathG2288 inG2532 himG846, yetG2532 askedG154 theyG846 ofG2532 PilateG4091 thatG846 heG2532 shouldG3367 beG2532 slainG337.
29AndG1161 whenG5613 theyG846 had fulfilledG5055 allG3956 thingsG3956 thatG3956 were writtenG1125 ofG575 himG846, theyG846 tookG2507 himG846 downG5087 fromG575 theG3956 treeG3586, andG1161 laidG5087 himG846 inG1519 a tombG3419.
30ButG1161 GodG2316 raisedG1453 himG846 fromG1537 theG3588 deadG3498:
31andG2250 heG846 wasG1510 seenG3708 forG1519 manyG4183 daysG2250 ofG2250 themG846 thatG3739 cameG4872 upG1519 withG4314 himG846 fromG575 GalileeG1056 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, whoG3739 areG1510 nowG3568 hisG846 witnessesG3144 unto theG3588 peopleG2992.
32AndG2532 weG2249 bringG2097 youG5210 goodG2097 tidings ofG2316 theG3588 promiseG1860 madeG1096 unto theG3588 fathersG3962,
33howG5613 thatG3748 GodG2316 hath fulfilledG1603 theG3588 sameG2532 unto ourG2316 childrenG5043, inG1722 thatG3748 heG2532 raisedG450 upG450 JesusG2424; asG5613 alsoG2532 itG1510 isG1510 writtenG1125 inG1722 theG3588 secondG1208 psalmG5568, Thou art myG1722 SonG5207, thisG3588 dayG4594 haveG1510 IG1473 begottenG1080 thee.
34AndG1161 asG1519 concerning thatG3754 heG846 raisedG450 himG846 upG450 fromG1537 theG3588 deadG3498, nowG1161 noG3371 moreG3371 toG1519 returnG5290 toG1519 corruption, heG846 hath spokenG3004 onG1519 thisG3779 wise, IG3754 willG3195 giveG1325 youG5210 theG3588 holyG3741 andG1161 sureG4103 blessings ofG1537 DavidG1138.
35BecauseG1360 heG2532 saith alsoG2532 inG1722 anotherG2087 psalm, Thou wilt notG3756 giveG1325 thy HolyG3741 OneG3588 toG3004 seeG3708 corruption.
