"For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was laid with his fathers, and saw decay."
— Acts 13:36, World English Bible
“For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:”
“For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption: ”
“For David, after he had served God’s purpose in his own generation, died, was buried with his ancestors, and experienced decay,”
“For David, when he had served in his generation, according to the will of God, slept: and was laid unto his fathers and saw corruption.”
“Now David, having done God's work for his generation, went to sleep, and was put with his fathers, and his body came to destruction:”
“For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:”
that God has fulfilled the same to us, their children, in that he raised up Jesus. As it is also written in the second psalm, 'You are my Son. Today I have become your father.'
"Concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he has spoken thus: 'I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.'
Therefore he says also in another psalm, 'You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.'
For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was laid with his fathers, and saw decay.
But he whom God raised up saw no decay.
Be it known to you therefore, brothers, that through this man is proclaimed to you remission of sins,
and by him everyone who believes is justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.
