33 that he has kept this promise to us. It is just as the second Psalm says about Jesus,“You are my son because todayI have become your Father.”
34 God raised Jesus from death and will never let his body decay. It is just as God said,“I will make to youthe same holy promisethat I made to David.”
35 And in another psalm it says, “God will never let the body of his Holy One decay.”
36 When David was alive, he obeyed God. Then after he died, he was buried in the family grave, and his body decayed.
37 But God raised Jesus from death, and his body did not decay.
38 My friends, the message is that Jesus can forgive your sins! The Law of Moses could not set you free from all your sins.
39 But everyone who has faith in Jesus is set free.
