1599 Geneva Bible
34 Now as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, no more to return to corruption, he hath said thus, (A)I will give you the holy things of David, [a]which are faithful.
35 [b]Wherefore he saith also in another place, (B)Thou wilt not suffer thine holy one to see corruption.
36 Howbeit, David after he had served his time by the counsel of God, he (C)slept, and was laid with his fathers, and saw corruption.

- Acts 13:34 The Greeks call those holy things, which the Hebrews call gracious bounties: and they are called David’s bounties in the passive signification, because God bestowed them upon David: Moreover, they are termed faithful, after the manner of speech which the Hebrews use, who terms those things faithful, which are steady and sure such as never alter nor change.
- Acts 13:35 The Lord was so in grave, that he felt no corruption.
