What happened to David and why does Paul refer to him?

Actes 13:36 (NEG79)

36 Or, David, après avoir en son temps servi au dessein de Dieu, est mort, a été réuni à ses pères, et a vu la corruption.

David died and was buried. Since he was not resurrected from the grave, his body decayed. This serves as evidence that David cannot be the Holy One that is referenced in Psalm 16:10. A similar argument is made by Peter in Acts 2:27–31.1
