Goodspeed(i)
29 When they had carried out everything that had been said about him in the Scriptures, they took him down from the cross and laid him in a tomb.
30 But God raised him from the dead,
31 and for many days he appeared to those who had come up to Jerusalem with him from Galilee, and they are now witnesses for him to the people.
32 So we now bring you the good news
33 that God has fulfilled to us, their children, the promise that he made to our forefathers, by raising Jesus to life, just as the Scripture says in the second psalm, You are my Son! Today I have become your Father!'
34 Now as evidence that he has raised him from the dead, never again to return to decay, he said this: 'I will fulfil to you my sacred promises to David.'
35 For in another psalm he says, 'You will not let your Holy One undergo decay.'
36 Now David, after serving God's purposes in his own generation, fell asleep and was laid among his forefathers and did undergo decay,
37 but he whom God raised to life did not undergo it.
38 You must understand therefore, my brothers, that through him the forgiveness of your sins is announced to you,
39 and that through union with him everyone who believes is cleared of every charge of which the Law of Moses could not clear you.
40 Take care, therefore, that what is said in the prophets does not prove true of you:
41 " 'Look, you scoffers! Then wonder and begone! For I am doing something in your times Which you will never believe even when it is related to you!' "
