'Decay' in the Bible

because you will not leave my soul in Hades, nor permit your Holy One to experience decay.

David by foreseeing this spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that he was neither abandoned to Hades, nor did his body experience decay.

But regarding the fact that he has raised Jesus from the dead, never again to be in a state of decay, God has spoken in this way: 'I will give you the holy and trustworthy promises made to David.'

Therefore he also says in another psalm, 'You will not permit your Holy One to experience decay.'

For David, after he had served God's purpose in his own generation, died, was buried with his ancestors, and experienced decay,

but the one whom God raised up did not experience decay.
