Acts 13:36 Context
34And as concerning that he raised him vp from the dead, now no more to returne to corruption, he said on this wise, I will giue you the sure mercies of Dauid. 35Wherfore he saith also in another Psalme, Thou shalt not suffer thine holy one to see corruption. 36For Dauid after he had serued his owne generation by the will of God, fell on sleepe, and was laide vnto his fathers, and saw corruption: 37But hee whom God raised againe, saw no corruption. 38¶ Be it knowen vnto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached vnto you the forgiuenesse of sinnes.
