23 (A)From the descendants of this man, (B)according to promise, God has brought to Israel (C)a Savior, Jesus, 24 after (D)John had proclaimed, before [a]His coming, a (E)baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel. 25 And while John (F)was completing his course, (G)he kept saying, ‘What do you suppose that I am? I am not He. But behold, one is coming after me, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.’

26 [b]Brothers, sons of Abraham’s family, and those among you who fear God, to us the message of (H)this salvation has been sent. 27 For those who live in Jerusalem, and their (I)rulers, (J)recognizing neither Him nor the [c]declarations of (K)the prophets which are (L)read every Sabbath, fulfilled these by condemning Him. 28 And though they found no grounds for putting Him to death, they (M)asked Pilate that He be executed. 29 When they had (N)carried out everything that was written concerning Him, (O)they took Him down from the [d](P)cross and (Q)laid Him in a tomb. 30 But God (R)raised Him from the dead; 31 and for many days (S)He appeared to those who came up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem, the very ones who are now (T)His witnesses to the people.
