Acts 13:36-43
New King James Version
36 “For David, after he had served [a]his own generation by the will of God, (A)fell asleep, was buried with his fathers, and [b]saw corruption; 37 but He whom God raised up [c]saw no corruption. 38 Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that (B)through this Man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins; 39 and (C)by Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses. 40 Beware therefore, lest what has been spoken in the prophets come upon you:
41 ‘Behold,(D) you despisers,
Marvel and perish!
For I work a work in your days,
A work which you will by no means believe,
Though one were to declare it to you.’ ”

New International Version
Acts 13:36-43
New International Version
36 “Now when David had served God’s purpose in his own generation, he fell asleep;(A) he was buried with his ancestors(B) and his body decayed. 37 But the one whom God raised from the dead(C) did not see decay.
38 “Therefore, my friends, I want you to know that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you.(D) 39 Through him everyone who believes(E) is set free from every sin, a justification you were not able to obtain under the law of Moses.(F) 40 Take care that what the prophets have said does not happen to you:
41 “‘Look, you scoffers,
wonder and perish,
for I am going to do something in your days
that you would never believe,
even if someone told you.’[a]”(G)
42 As Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue,(H) the people invited them to speak further about these things on the next Sabbath. 43 When the congregation was dismissed, many of the Jews and devout converts to Judaism followed Paul and Barnabas, who talked with them and urged them to continue in the grace of God.(I)
