Acts 13:36
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:

Ἄνδρες ἀδελφοί ἐξὸν εἰπεῖν μετὰ παῤῥησίας πρὸς ὑμᾶς περὶ τοῦ πατριάρχου Δαβίδ ὅτι καὶ ἐτελεύτησεν καὶ ἐτάφη καὶ τὸ μνῆμα αὐτοῦ ἔστιν ἐν ἡμῖν ἄχρι τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης
Men and brethren, let freely me speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day.
וַיִּשְׁכַּב דָּוִד עִם-אֲבֹתָיו וַיִּקָּבֵר בְּעִיר דָּוִֽד׃
So David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.
כִּי׀ יִמְלְאוּ יָמֶיךָ וְשָֽׁכַבְתָּ אֶת-אֲבֹתֶיךָ וַהֲקִֽימֹתִי אֶֽת-זַרְעֲךָ אַֽחֲרֶיךָ אֲשֶׁר יֵצֵא מִמֵּעֶיךָ וַהֲכִֽינֹתִי אֶת-מַמְלַכְתּֽוֹ׃
And when thy days be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, which shall proceed out of thy bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.
καὶ μεταστήσας αὐτὸν ἤγειρεν αὐτοῖς τὸν Δαβὶδ εἰς βασιλέα ᾧ καὶ εἶπεν μαρτυρήσας Εὗρον Δαβὶδ τὸν τοῦ Ἰεσσαί ἄνδρα κατὰ τὴν καρδίαν μου ὃς ποιήσει πάντα τὰ θελήματά μου
And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.
וַיִּמְלֹךְ דָּוִיד עַל-כָּל-יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיְהִי עֹשֶׂה מִשְׁפָּט וּצְדָקָה לְכָל-עַמּֽוֹ׃
So David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice among all his people.
וַיִּשְׁכַּב יְהֽוֹשָׁפָט עִם-אֲבֹתָיו וַיִּקָּבֵר עִם-אֲבֹתָיו בְּעִיר דָּוִיד וַיִּמְלֹךְ יְהוֹרָם בְּנוֹ תַּחְתָּֽיו׃
Now Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And Jehoram his son reigned in his stead.
בְּזֵעַת אַפֶּיךָ תֹּאכַל לֶחֶם עַד שֽׁוּבְךָ אֶל-הָאֲדָמָה כִּי מִמֶּנָּה לֻקָּחְתָּ כִּֽי-עָפָר אַתָּה וְאֶל-עָפָר תָּשֽׁוּב׃
In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
וְהָיָה כִּֽי-מָלְאוּ יָמֶיךָ לָלֶכֶת עִם-אֲבֹתֶיךָ וַהֲקִֽימוֹתִי אֶֽת-זַרְעֲךָ אַֽחֲרֶיךָ אֲשֶׁר יִֽהְיֶה מִבָּנֶיךָ וַהֲכִֽינוֹתִי אֶת-מַלְכוּתֽוֹ׃
And it shall come to pass, when thy days be expired that thou must go to be with thy fathers, that I will raise up thy seed after thee, which shall be of thy sons; and I will establish his kingdom.
וְאַחַר עוֹרִֽי נִקְּפוּ-זֹאת וּמִבְּשָׂרִי אֶֽחֱזֶה אֱלֽוֹהַּ׃
And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:
יַחַד עַל-עָפָר יִשְׁכָּבוּ וְרִמָּה תְּכַסֶּה עֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
They shall lie down alike in the dust, and the worms shall cover them.
ἄρα καὶ οἱ κοιμηθέντες ἐν Χριστῷ ἀπώλοντο
Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.
וַיִּשְׁכַּב עֻזִּיָּהוּ עִם-אֲבֹתָיו וַיִּקְבְּרוּ אֹתוֹ עִם-אֲבֹתָיו בִּשְׂדֵה הַקְּבוּרָה אֲשֶׁר לַמְּלָכִים כִּי אָֽמְרוּ מְצוֹרָע הוּא וַיִּמְלֹךְ יוֹתָם בְּנוֹ תַּחְתָּֽיו׃
So Uzziah slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the field of the burial which belonged to the kings; for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son reigned in his stead.
כַּצֹּאן׀ לִֽשְׁאוֹל שַׁתּוּ מָוֶת יִרְעֵם וַיִּרְדּוּ בָם יְשָׁרִים׀ לַבֹּקֶר וְצוּרָם לְבַלּוֹת שְׁאוֹל מִזְּבֻל לֽוֹ׃
Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beauty shall consume in the grave from their dwelling.
לַשַּׁחַת קָרָאתִי אָבִי אָתָּה אִמִּי וַאֲחֹתִי לָֽרִמָּֽה׃
I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister.
וַיִּשְׁכַּב רְחַבְעָם עִם-אֲבֹתָיו וַיִּקָּבֵר בְּעִיר דָּוִיד וַיִּמְלֹךְ אֲבִיָּה בְנוֹ תַּחְתָּֽיו׃
And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abijah his son reigned in his stead.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד זֶה הוּא בֵּית יְהוָה הָֽאֱלֹהִים וְזֶה-מִּזְבֵּחַ לְעֹלָה לְיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
Then David said, This is the house of the LORD God, and this is the altar of the burnt offering for Israel.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד לְכֹל׀ קְהַל יִשְׂרָאֵל אִם-עֲלֵיכֶם טוֹב וּמִן-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ נִפְרְצָה נִשְׁלְחָה עַל-אַחֵינוּ הַנִּשְׁאָרִים בְּכֹל אַרְצוֹת יִשְׂרָאֵל וְעִמָּהֶם הַכֹּֽהֲנִים וְהַלְוִיִּם בְּעָרֵי מִגְרְשֵׁיהֶם וְיִקָּֽבְצוּ אֵלֵֽינוּ׃
And David said unto all the congregation of Israel, If it seem good unto you, and that it be of the LORD our God, let us send abroad unto our brethren every where, that are left in all the land of Israel, and with them also to the priests and Levites which are in their cities and suburbs, that they may gather themselves unto us:
וִֽיחִי-עוֹד לָנֶצַח לֹא יִרְאֶה הַשָּֽׁחַת׃
That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption.
δεῖ γὰρ τὸ φθαρτὸν τοῦτο ἐνδύσασθαι ἀφθαρσίαν καὶ τὸ θνητὸν τοῦτο ἐνδύσασθαι ἀθανασίαν
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
מֵאַחַר עָלוֹת הֱבִיאוֹ לִרְעוֹת בְּיַעֲקֹב עַמּוֹ וּבְיִשְׂרָאֵל נַחֲלָתֽוֹ׃
From following the ewes great with young he brought him to feed Jacob his people, and Israel his inheritance.
