  1. Isaiah 53:10 Hebrew though you make

25 For David says concerning him,

(A)“‘I saw the Lord always before me,
    for he is at my right hand that I may not be shaken;
26 therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced;
    my flesh also will dwell (B)in hope.
27 For you will not abandon my soul to (C)Hades,
    (D)or let your (E)Holy One (F)see corruption.
28 You have made known to me the paths of life;
    you will make me full of gladness with your presence.’

29 “Brothers, I may say to you with confidence about (G)the patriarch David (H)that he both died and (I)was buried, and (J)his tomb is with us to this day. 30 (K)Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that (L)God had sworn with an oath to him that he would set one of his descendants on his throne, 31 he foresaw and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that (M)he was not abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption. 32 This Jesus (N)God raised up, (O)and of that we all are witnesses.

25 David said about him:

“‘I saw the Lord always before me.
    Because he is at my right hand,
    I will not be shaken.
26 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;
    my body also will rest in hope,
27 because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,
    you will not let your holy one see decay.(A)
28 You have made known to me the paths of life;
    you will fill me with joy in your presence.’[a](B)

29 “Fellow Israelites,(C) I can tell you confidently that the patriarch(D) David died and was buried,(E) and his tomb is here(F) to this day. 30 But he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that he would place one of his descendants on his throne.(G) 31 Seeing what was to come, he spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, that he was not abandoned to the realm of the dead, nor did his body see decay.(H) 32 God has raised this Jesus to life,(I) and we are all witnesses(J) of it.

  1. Acts 2:28 Psalm 16:8-11 (see Septuagint)

33 (A)this he has fulfilled to us their children by raising Jesus, as also it is written in the second Psalm,

(B)“‘You are my Son,
    today I have begotten you.’

34 And as for the fact that he raised him from the dead, (C)(D)no more to return to corruption, he has spoken in this way,

“‘I will give you (E)the holy and sure blessings of David.’

35 Therefore he says also in another psalm,

(F)“‘You will not let your Holy One see corruption.’

33 he has fulfilled for us, their children, by raising up Jesus.(A) As it is written in the second Psalm:

“‘You are my son;
    today I have become your father.’[a](B)

34 God raised him from the dead so that he will never be subject to decay. As God has said,

“‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings promised to David.’[b](C)

35 So it is also stated elsewhere:

“‘You will not let your holy one see decay.’[c](D)
