Acts 13:34-36

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

³⁴ And as to His having raised Him from among the dead, now no more to return to [undergo] putrefaction and dissolution [of the grave], He spoke in this way, I will fulfill and give to you the holy and sure mercy and blessings [that were promised and assured] to David.^(A)

³⁵ For this reason He says also in another psalm, You will not allow Your Holy One to see corruption [to undergo putrefaction and dissolution of the grave].^(B)

³⁶ For David, after he had served God’s will and purpose and counsel in his own generation, fell asleep [^[a]in death] and was buried among his forefathers, and he did see corruption and undergo putrefaction and dissolution [of the grave].
