Acts 13:26-35

New American Standard Bible

²⁶ “^[a]Brothers, sons of Abraham’s family, and those among you who fear God, to us the message of ^(A)this salvation has been sent. ²⁷ For those who live in Jerusalem, and their ^(B)rulers, ^(C)recognizing neither Him nor the ^[b]declarations of ^(D)the prophets which are ^(E)read every Sabbath, fulfilled these by condemning Him. ²⁸ And though they found no grounds for putting Him to death, they ^(F)asked Pilate that He be executed. ²⁹ When they had ^(G)carried out everything that was written concerning Him, ^(H)they took Him down from the ^[c](I)cross and ^(J)laid Him in a tomb. ³⁰ But God ^(K)raised Him from the dead; ³¹ and for many days ^(L)He appeared to those who came up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem, the very ones who are now ^(M)His witnesses to the people. ³² And we ^(N)preach to you the good news of ^(O)the promise made to the fathers, ³³ that God has fulfilled this promise to those of us who are the descendants by ^(P)raising Jesus, as it is also written in the second Psalm: ‘^(Q)You are My Son; today I have fathered You.’ ³⁴ As for the fact that He ^(R)raised Him from the dead, never again to return to decay, He has spoken in this way: ‘^(S)I will give you the holy and faithful mercies of David.’ ³⁵ Therefore, He also says in another Psalm: ‘^(T)You will not ^[d]allow Your ^[e]Holy One to ^[f]undergo decay.’
