21. And later on, they petitioned for a king. And God gave them Saul, the son of Kish, a man from the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.
22. And having removed him, he raised up for them king David. And offering testimony about him, he said, 'I have found David, the son of Jesse, to be a man according to my own heart, who will accomplish all that I will.'
23. From his offspring, according to the Promise, God has brought Jesus the Savior to Israel.
24. John was preaching, before the face of his advent, a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
25. Then, when John completed his course, he was saying: 'I am not the one you consider me to be. For behold, one arrives after me, the shoes of whose feet I am not worthy to loosen.'
26. Noble brothers, sons of the stock of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, it is to you the Word of this salvation has been sent.
27. For those who were living in Jerusalem, and its rulers, heeding neither him, nor the voices of the Prophets that are read on every Sabbath, fulfilled these by judging him.
28. And although they found no case for death against him, they petitioned Pilate, so that they might put him to death.
29. And when they had fulfilled everything that had been written about him, taking him down from the tree, they placed him in a tomb.
30. Yet truly, God raised him up from the dead on the third day.
31. And he was seen for many days by those who went up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who even now are his witnesses to the people.
32. And we are announcing to you that the Promise, which was made to our fathers,
33. has been fulfilled by God for our children by raising up Jesus, just as it has been written in the second Psalm also: 'You are my Son. This day I have begotten you.'
34. Now, since he raised him from the dead, so as to no longer return to corruption, he has said this: 'I will give to you the holy things of David, the faithful one.'
35. And also then, in another place, he says: 'You will not allow your Holy One to see corruption.'
36. For David, when he had ministered to his generation in accordance with the will of God, fell asleep, and he was placed next to his fathers, and he saw corruption.
37. Yet truly, he whom God has raised from the dead has not seen corruption.
38. Therefore, let it be known to you, noble brothers, that through him is announced to you remission from sins and from everything by which you were not able to be justified in the law of Moses.
