26 "Brethren, sons of Abraham's race and those among you who reverence God, the message of this salvation has been sent to you.
27 For the inhabitants of Jerusalem and their rulers, neither understanding him nor the utterances of the prophets which are read every Sabbath, fulfilled those utterances by condemning him.
28 Although they found no ground for putting him to death they begged Pilate to have him killed.
29 When they had completely done all that had been predicted about him, they took him down from the cross and laid him in a tomb.
30 But God raised him from the dead
31 and he appeared for many days to those who had gone up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem. They are now his witnesses to all the people.
32 "We tell you the good news that the promise to our fathers has been kept;
33 for God has fulfilled it for our children in raising up Jesus, as it is written in the second psalm, 'Thou art my son; to-day I have become thy father.'
34 And as to his raising him from the dead, never to return to decay, he spoke thus; 'I will give you the holy and sure promises made to David.'
35 Therefore he says also in another psalm, 'Thou wilt not let thy holy one see decay.'
36 For David after serving the will of God in his own generation fell asleep and was laid with his fathers and saw decay.
37 But he whom God raised up saw no decay.
38 "Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through him forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you.
39 Yes, every one who believes in him is cleared from all the sins from which you could not be cleared by the Law of Moses.
