* And when he had removed (5660 ) him , he raised up (5656 ) unto them David to be their king ; to whom also he gave testimony (5660 ), and said (5627 ), I have found (5627 ) David the son of Jesse , a man after mine own heart , which shall fulfil (5692 ) all my will . * Of this mans seed hath God according to his promise raised (5656 ) unto Israel a Saviour , Jesus : * When John had first preached (5660 ) before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel . * And as John fulfilled (5707 ) his course , he said (5707 ), Whom think ye (5719 ) that I am (5750 )? I am (5748 ) not he . But , behold (5628 ), there cometh one (5736 ) after me , whose shoes of his feet I am (5748 ) not worthy to loose (5658 ). * Men and brethren , children of the stock of Abraham , and whosoever among you feareth (5740 ) God , to you is the word of this salvation sent (5648 ). * For they that dwell (5723 ) at Jerusalem , and their rulers , because they knew him not (5660 ), nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read (5746 ) every sabbath day , they have fulfilled (5656 ) them in condemning (5660 ) him . * And though they found (5631 ) no cause of death in him , yet desired they (5668 ) Pilate that he should be slain (5683 ). * And when they had fulfilled (5656 ) all that was written (5772 ) of him , they took him down (5631 ) from the tree , and laid (5656 ) him in a sepulchre . * But God raised (5656 ) him from the dead : * And he was seen (5681 ) many days of them which came up with (5631 ) him from Galilee to Jerusalem , who are (5748 ) his witnesses unto the people . * And we declare unto you glad tidings (5731 ), how that the promise which was made (5637 ) unto the fathers , * God hath fulfilled (5758 ) the same unto us their children , in that he hath raised up Jesus again (5660 ); as it is also written (5769 ) in the second psalm , Thou art (5748 ) my Son , this day have I begotten (5758 ) thee . * And as concerning that he raised him up (5656 ) from the dead , now no more to (5723 ) return (5721 ) to corruption , he said (5758 ) on this wise , I will give (5692 ) you the sure mercies of David . * Wherefore he saith (5719 ) also in another psalm , Thou shalt not suffer (5692 ) thine Holy One to see (5629 ) corruption . * For David , after he had served (5660 ) his own generation by the will of God , fell on sleep (5681 ), and was laid (5681 ) unto his fathers , and saw (5627 ) corruption :
