    In Acts 13:33, the perfect active indicative form appears in the clause that God has acted for the children by raising Jesus; the APB renders the clause, "This God has fulfilled to our children by raising Jesus," and then cites what is written in the second Psalm.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Acts 13:33, the APB presents the clause with "has fulfilled" in connection with God raising Jesus. This rendering confirms the clause's overall presentation rather than isolating every contribution of the Greek form.
