Acts 13:36
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For when David had served God’s purpose in his own generation, he fell asleep. His body was buried with his fathers and saw decay.
In context
34 In fact, God raised Him from the dead, never to see decay. As He has said: ‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings promised to David.’
35 So also, He says in another Psalm: ‘You will not let Your Holy One see decay.’
36 For when David had served God’s purpose in his own generation, he fell asleep. His body was buried with his fathers and saw decay.
37 But the One whom God raised from the dead did not see decay.
38 Therefore let it be known to you, brothers, that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you.
