Acts 13:22-36

ACV(i) 22 And having removed him, he raised up David for a king to them, also about whom he said, when he testified, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man according to my heart, who will do all my purposes. 23 From this man's seed according to promise, God brought salvation to Israel, 24 John having earlier proclaimed, before his coming presence, the immersion of repentance to Israel. 25 And as John was fulfilling his course, he said, Whom do ye suppose me to be? I am not, but behold, he comes after me of whom I am not worthy to loose the shoes of his feet. 26 Men, brothers, sons of the race of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, to you the word of this salvation was sent. 27 For those who dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, not having known this and the voices of the prophets being read at every sabbath, they fulfilled, having condemned him. 28 And not having found one cause of death in him, they asked for Pilate to kill him. 29 And when they completed all the things written about him, having taken him down from the tree, they laid him in a tomb. 30 But God raised him from the dead, 31 who was seen for more days by those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are witnesses of him to the people. 32 And we proclaim good news to you: the promise to the fathers, which happened because God has fulfilled this to us their children, having raised up Jesus, 33 as also it is written in the second psalm, Thou are my Son, today I have begotten thee. 34 And because he raised him from the dead, no longer going to return to decay, he has spoken this way: I will give to you the faithful holy things of David. 35 Therefore also he says in another, Thou will not give thy Holy Man to see decay. 36 For indeed David, who served his own generation in the plan of God, became asleep, and was added near his fathers, and saw decay.
