Acts 13:22-36

Haweis(i) 22 And removing him, he raised up unto them David to be king; respecting whom also he spake testifying, "I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my own heart, who shall perform all my intentions." 23 From this man's seed according to the promise hath God raised up to Israel a Saviour, Jesus: 24 John having preached before his first coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel. 25 But as John was finishing his course, he said, Whom do ye suppose me to be? I am not [the Messiah]. But, behold! he is coming after me, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to loose. 26 Men and brethren, children of the race of Abraham, and all among you who fear God, to you is the word of this salvation sent. 27 For they who dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, being ignorant of him, and the words of the prophets that are read every sabbath-day, by condemning him have fulfilled them. 28 And though they found no cause of death in him, they besought Pilate that he might be killed. 29 But when they had finished all things that were written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre. 30 But God raised him from the dead: 31 and he was seen many days by those who went up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people. 32 And we preach to you the promise made to our fathers; 33 for this hath God fulfilled to their children, even to us, in raising up Jesus: as it is also written in the second Psalm, "Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee." 34 But that he raised him from the dead, no more in future to return to corruption, he hath thus spoken, "I will give you the holy things of David, which are sure." 35 Wherefore also he saith in another place, "Thou wilt not permit thy Holy One to see corruption." 36 For David indeed, after having served his own generation by the will of God, fell asleep, and was placed with his fathers, and saw corruption.
