Fulfilling The Scriptures, The Rulers Killed Jesus And God Raised Him Up

²⁶ “Men, brothers, sons of the family of Abraham, and the ones among you fearing God: the message of this salvation was sent-out to us. ²⁷ For the ones dwelling in Jerusalem and their rulers, not having known this One and the voices of the prophets being read every Sabbath— having condemned Him, fulfilled them. ²⁸ And having found no charge worthy of death, they asked Pilate that He be executed. ²⁹ And when they fulfilled all the things having been written about Him, having taken Him down from the cross, they laid Him in a tomb. ³⁰ But God raised Him from the dead— ³¹ Who appeared for many days to the ones having come up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who now are His witnesses to the people. ³² And we are announcing-as-good-news-to you the promise having been made to the fathers— ³³ that God has fulfilled this promise for us their children, having raised-up^[a] Jesus, as it has also been written in the second Psalm: ‘You are My Son. Today I have fathered You’ [Ps 2:7]. ³⁴ And that^[b] He raised Him up from the dead as One no longer going to return to decay, He has spoken in this manner [in Isa 55:3]: that ‘I will give You the holy, trustworthy^[c] things of ^[d] David’.
