  1. Psalm 16:10 Or holy

10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

22 But God has helped me to this very day; so I stand here and testify to small and great alike. I am saying nothing beyond what the prophets and Moses said would happen(A) 23 that the Messiah would suffer(B) and, as the first to rise from the dead,(C) would bring the message of light to his own people and to the Gentiles.”(D)

22 Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come:

23 That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.

29 When they had carried out all that was written about him,(A) they took him down from the cross(B) and laid him in a tomb.(C) 30 But God raised him from the dead,(D) 31 and for many days he was seen by those who had traveled with him from Galilee to Jerusalem.(E) They are now his witnesses(F) to our people.

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

“‘You are my son;
    today I have become your father.’[a](J)

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

“‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings promised to David.’[b](K)

35 So it is also stated elsewhere:

“‘You will not let your holy one see decay.’[c](L)

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

  3. Acts 13:35 Psalm 16:10 (see Septuagint)

29 And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre.

30 But God raised him from the dead:

31 And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.

32 And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,

33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.

34 And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.

35 Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

36 For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:

37 But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.

He was assigned a grave with the wicked,(A)
    and with the rich(B) in his death,
though he had done no violence,(C)
    nor was any deceit in his mouth.(D)

10 Yet it was the Lord’s will(E) to crush(F) him and cause him to suffer,(G)
    and though the Lord makes[a] his life an offering for sin,(H)
he will see his offspring(I) and prolong his days,
    and the will of the Lord will prosper(J) in his hand.
11 After he has suffered,(K)
    he will see the light(L) of life[b] and be satisfied[c];
by his knowledge[d] my righteous servant(M) will justify(N) many,
    and he will bear their iniquities.(O)
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[e](P)
    and he will divide the spoils(Q) with the strong,[f]
because he poured out his life unto death,(R)
    and was numbered with the transgressors.(S)
For he bore(T) the sin of many,(U)
    and made intercession(V) for the transgressors.

16 For if the dead are not raised, then Christ has not been raised either. 17 And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.(A) 18 Then those also who have fallen asleep(B) in Christ are lost. 19 If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied.(C)

20 But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead,(D) the firstfruits(E) of those who have fallen asleep.(F) 21 For since death came through a man,(G) the resurrection of the dead(H) comes also through a man.

16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:

17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.

18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.

19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.

21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
