The Acts

²³him, being delivered up by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye by the hand of lawless men did crucify and slay: ²⁴whom God raised up, having loosed the pangs of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it. ²⁵For David saith concerning him, I beheld the Lord always before my face; For he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved: ²⁶Therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced; Moreover my flesh also shall dwell in hope: ²⁷Because thou wilt not leave my soul in Hades, Neither wilt thou give thy Holy One to see corruption. ²⁸Thou madest known unto me the ways of life; Thou shalt make me full of gladness with thy countenance. ²⁹Brethren, I may say unto you freely of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us unto this day.
