⁶ He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee:^(A)

³¹ Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him,^(A) and he disappeared from their sight.

³⁴ and saying, “It is true! The Lord^(A) has risen and has appeared to Simon.”^(B)

²⁴ But God raised him from the dead,^(A) freeing him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him.^{(B) 25} David said about him:

²⁹ “Fellow Israelites,^(E) I can tell you confidently that the patriarch^(F) David died and was buried,^(G) and his tomb is here^(H) to this day. ³⁰ But he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that he would place one of his descendants on his throne.^{(I) 31} Seeing what was to come, he spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, that he was not abandoned to the realm of the dead, nor did his body see decay.^{(J) 32} God has raised this Jesus to life,^(K) and we are all witnesses^(L) of it. ³³ Exalted^(M) to the right hand of God,^(N) he has received from the Father^(O) the promised Holy Spirit^(P) and has poured out^(Q) what you now see and hear. ³⁴ For David did not ascend to heaven, and yet he said,

³⁶ “Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord^(S) and Messiah.”^(T)

³⁰ But God raised him from the dead,^{(A) 31} and for many days he was seen by those who had traveled with him from Galilee to Jerusalem.^(B) They are now his witnesses^(C) to our people.

³² “We tell you the good news:^(D) What God promised our ancestors^{(E) 33} he has fulfilled for us, their children, by raising up Jesus.^(F) As it is written in the second Psalm:

³⁴ God raised him from the dead so that he will never be subject to decay. As God has said,

³⁵ So it is also stated elsewhere:

³⁶ “Now when David had served God’s purpose in his own generation, he fell asleep;^(J) he was buried with his ancestors^(K) and his body decayed. ³⁷ But the one whom God raised from the dead^(L) did not see decay.

³⁸ “Therefore, my friends, I want you to know that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you.^{(M) 39} Through him everyone who believes^(N) is set free from every sin, a justification you were not able to obtain under the law of Moses.^(O)

³ For what I received^(A) I passed on to you^(B) as of first importance^[a]: that Christ died for our sins^(C) according to the Scriptures,^{(D) 4} that he was buried,^(E) that he was raised^(F) on the third day^(G) according to the Scriptures,^(H)
