Acts:13:27-37
Seeker Overlay ON
*
For those who dwell in Jerusalem ,
and their rulers ,
because they did not know Him ,
nor even the voices of the Prophets which are read every Sabbath ,
have fulfilled them in condemning Him .
*
And though they found no cause for death in Him ,
they asked Pilate that He should be put to death .
*
Now when they had fulfilled all that was written concerning Him ,
they took Him down from the tree and laid Him in a tomb .
*
But God raised Him from the dead .
*
He was seen for many days by those who came up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem ,
who are His witnesses to the people .
*
And we declare to you glad tidings--that promise which was made to the fathers .
*
God has fulfilled this for us their children ,
in that He has raised up Jesus .
As it is also written in the second Psalm : "
You are My Son ,
Today I have begotten You .'
*
And that He raised Him from the dead ,
no more to return to corruption ,
He has spoken thus : "
I will give you the sure mercies of David .'
*
Therefore He also says in another Psalm : "
You will not allow Your Holy One to see corruption .'
* "
For David ,
after he had served his own generation by the will of God ,
fell asleep ,
was buried with his fathers ,
and saw corruption ;
*
but He whom God raised up saw no corruption .
