Acts 13:33-45
-
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.
-
38 Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:
-
39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
-
40 Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;
-
41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.
-
42 And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.
-
43 Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.
-
44 And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.
-
45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.
