Acts 13:27-37

27For those who live in Jerusalem and their rulers—not recognizing Him or the sayings of the Prophets that are read every Shabbat—fulfilled these words by condemning Him.

28Though they found no charge worthy of a death sentence, they asked Pilate to have Him executed.

29When they had carried out all that had been written about Him, they took Him down from the tree and laid Him in a tomb.

30But God raised Him from the dead!

31For many days He appeared to those who had come up from the Galilee to Jerusalem, who are now His witnesses to the people.

32“And we proclaim to you Good News—the promise to the fathers has arrived!

33For God has fulfilled this promise to the children—to us—by raising up Yeshua, as it is also written in the second psalm: ‘You are My Son. Today I have become Your Father.’

34“But since He raised Him up from the dead, never to return to decay, He has spoken in this way, ‘I will give you the holy and sure mercies of David.’

35Therefore He also says in another psalm, ‘You will not permit Your Holy One to see decay.’

36For after David had served God’s purpose in his own generation, he went to sleep and was laid with his fathers and saw decay.

37But the One whom God raised up did not see decay.
