Acts 13:34-36

New Living Translation

³⁴ For God had promised to raise him from the dead, not leaving him to rot in the grave. He said, ‘I will give you the sacred blessings I promised to David.’^{[a] 35} Another psalm explains it more fully: ‘You will not allow your Holy One to rot in the grave.’^{[b] 36} This is not a reference to David, for after David had done the will of God in his own generation, he died and was buried with his ancestors, and his body decayed.
