Acts 13:28–36
28Though they found no cause for death, they still asked Pilate to have him killed.↗
29When they had fulfilled all things that were written about him, they took him down from the tree and laid him in a tomb.↗
30But God raised him from the dead,↗
31and he was seen for many days by those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people.↗
32We bring you good news of the promise made to the fathers,↗
33that God has fulfilled this to us, their children, in that he raised up Jesus. As it is also written in the second psalm, ‘You are my Son. Today I have become your father.’↗
34“Concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he has spoken thus: ‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.’↗
35Therefore he says also in another psalm, ‘You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.’↗
36For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, was laid with his fathers, and saw decay.↗
