16ThenG1161 PaulG3972 stood upG450, andG2532 beckoningG2678 with his handG5495 saidG2036, MenG435 of IsraelG2475, andG2532 ye that fearG5399 GodG2316, listenG191. 17The GodG2316 of thisG5127 peopleG2992 IsraelG2474 choseG1586 ourG2257 fathersG3962, andG2532 exaltedG5312 the peopleG2992 whenG1722 they dwelt as strangersG3940 inG1722 the landG1093 of EgyptG125, andG2532 withG3326 an highG5308 armG1023 he broughtG1806 themG846 out ofG1537 itG846. 18AndG2532 aboutG5613 the timeG5550 of forty yearsG5063 he boreG5159 theirG846 mannersG5159 inG1722 the wildernessG2048.1 19AndG2532 when he had destroyedG2507 sevenG2033 nationsG1484 inG1722 the landG1093 of CanaanG5477, he dividedG2624 theirG846 landG1093 to themG846 by lotG2624. 20AndG2532 afterG3326 these thingsG5023, which took aboutG5613 four hundredG5071 andG2532 fiftyG4004 yearsG2094, he gaveG1325 to them judgesG2923, untilG2193 SamuelG4545 the prophetG4396. 21And afterwardG2547 they desiredG154 a kingG935: andG2532 GodG2316 gaveG1325 to themG846 SaulG4549 the sonG5207 of KishG2797, a manG435 ofG1537 the tribeG5443 of BenjaminG958, by the space of fortyG5062 yearsG2094. 22AndG2532 when he had removedG3179 himG846, he raised upG1453 to themG846 DavidG1138 to beG1519 their kingG935; to whomG3739 alsoG2532 he gave testimonyG3140, and saidG2036, I have foundG2147 DavidG1138 the son of JesseG2421, a manG435 afterG2596 my ownG3450 heartG2588, whoG3739 shall fulfilG4160 allG3956 myG3450 willG2307. 23OfG575 this man’sG5127 seedG4690 hathG1453 GodG2316 accordingG2596 to his promiseG1860 raisedG1453 up to IsraelG2474 a SaviourG4990, JesusG2424: 24After JohnG2491 had first preachedG4296 beforeG4253 hisG846 comingG4383G1529 the baptismG908 of repentanceG3341 to allG3956 the peopleG2992 of IsraelG2474. 25AndG1161 asG5613 JohnG2491 fulfilledG4137 his courseG1408, he saidG3004, WhomG5101 think yeG5282 that IG3165 amG1511? IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 he . ButG235, beholdG2400, there cometh oneG2064 afterG3326 meG1691, whoseG3739 shoesG5266 of his feetG4228 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG514 to looseG3089. 26MenG435, brethrenG80, childrenG5207 of the stockG1085 of AbrahamG11, andG2532 whoever amongG1722 youG5213 fearethG5399 GodG2316, to youG5213 isG649 the wordG3056 of thisG5026 salvationG4991 sentG649. 27ForG1063 they that dwellG2730 atG1722 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 theirG846 rulersG758, because they knewG50 himG5126 notG50, nor yetG2532 the wordsG5456 of the prophetsG4396 whichG3588 are readG314G2596 everyG3956 sabbathG4521, they have fulfilledG4137 them in condemningG2919 him . 28AndG2532 though they foundG2147 noG3367 causeG156 of deathG2288 in him, yet they desiredG154 PilateG4091 that heG846 should be put to deathG337. 29AndG1161 whenG5613 they had fulfilledG5055 allG537 that was writtenG1125 concerningG4012 himG846, they took him downG2507 fromG575 the treeG3586, and laidG5087 him inG1519 a sepulchreG3419. 30ButG1161 GodG2316 raisedG1453 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498: 31And heG3739 was seenG3700 manyG1909G4119 daysG2250 by them who came up withG4872 himG846 fromG575 GalileeG1056 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, whoG3748 areG1526 hisG846 witnessesG3144 toG4314 the peopleG2992. 32AndG2532 weG2249 declareG2097 to youG5209 the glad tidingsG2097, thatG3754 the promiseG1860 which was madeG1096 toG4314 the fathersG3962, 33GodG2316 hath fulfilledG1603 the sameG5026 to usG2254 theirG846 childrenG5043, in that he hath raised upG450 JesusG2424 againG450; asG5613 it isG1125 alsoG2532 writtenG1125 inG1722 the secondG1208 psalmG5568, ThouG4771 artG1488 myG3450 SonG5207, this dayG4594 have IG1473 begottenG1080 theeG4571. 34AndG1161 as concerning thatG3754 he raisedG450 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498, now no moreG3371 toG3195 returnG5290 toG1519 corruptionG1312, he saidG2046 in this wayG3779, I will giveG1325 youG5213 the sureG4103 merciesG3741 of DavidG1138.2 35ThereforeG1352 he saithG3004 alsoG2532 inG1722 anotherG2087 psalm, Thou shaltG1325 notG3756 allowG1325 thyG4675 Holy OneG3741 to seeG1492 corruptionG1312. 36ForG1063G3303 DavidG1138, after he had servedG5256 his ownG2398 generationG1074 by the willG1012 of GodG2316, fell asleepG2837, andG2532 was laidG4369 toG4314 hisG846 fathersG3962, andG2532 sawG1492 corruptionG1312:3 37ButG1161 he, whomG3739 GodG2316 raised againG1453, sawG1492 noG3756 corruptionG1312. 38Be itG2077 knownG1110 to youG5213 thereforeG3767, menG435, brethrenG80, thatG3754 throughG1223 this manG5127 is preachedG2605 to youG5213 the forgivenessG859 of sinsG266: 39AndG2532 byG1722 himG5129 allG3956 that believeG4100 are justifiedG1344 fromG575 all thingsG3956, from whichG3739 ye couldG1410 notG3756 be justifiedG1344 byG1722 the lawG3551 of MosesG3475. 40BewareG991 thereforeG3767, lest thatG3361 comeG1904 uponG1909 youG5209, which is spokenG2046 inG1722 the prophetsG4396; 41BeholdG1492, ye despisersG2707, andG2532 wonderG2296, andG2532 perishG853: forG3754 IG1473 workG2038 a workG2041 inG1722 yourG5216 daysG2250, a workG2041 whichG3739 ye shallG4100 by no meansG3364 believeG4100, thoughG1437 a manG5100 declare itG1555 to youG5213.
