1
ThenG1161 saidG2036 the highG749 priest,G749 Are theseG5023 things so?G3779
2
And he said,G5346 Men,G435 brothers,G80 and fathers,G3962 listen;G191 The GodG2316 of gloryG1391 appearedG3700 to our fatherG3962 Abraham,G11 when he was in Mesopotamia,G3318 beforeG4250 G2228 he dwelledG2730 in Charran,G5488
3
And saidG2036 to him, GetG1831 you out of your country,G1093 and from your kindred,G4772 and comeG1204 intoG1519 the landG1093 whichG3739 I shall showG1166 you.
4
ThenG5119 cameG1831 he out of the landG1093 of the Chaldaeans,G5466 and dwelledG2730 in Charran:G5488 and from there,G1564 whenG3326 his fatherG3962 was dead,G599 he removedG3351 him intoG1519 thisG5026 land,G1093 whereinG1519 G3757 you nowG3568 dwell.G2730
5
And he gaveG1325 him noneG3756 inheritanceG2817 in it, no, not so much as to setG968 his footG4228 on: yetG2532 he promisedG1861 that he would giveG1325 it to him for a possession,G2697 and to his seedG4690 afterG3326 him, when as yet he hadG5607 noG3756 child.G5043
6
And GodG2316 spokeG2980 on thisG3779 wise, That his seedG4690 should sojournG1510 G3941 in a strangeG245 land;G1093 and that they should bringG1402 them into bondage,G1402 and entreatG2559 them evilG2559 fourG5071 hundredG5071 years.G2094
7
And the nationG1484 to whomG3739 they shall be in bondageG1398 will I judge,G2919 saidG2036 God:G2316 and afterG3326 that shall they comeG1831 forth,G1831 and serveG3000 me in thisG5129 place.G5117
8
And he gaveG1325 him the covenantG1242 of circumcision:G4061 and soG3779 Abraham begatG1080 Isaac,G2464 and circumcisedG4059 him the eighthG3590 day;G2250 and IsaacG2464 begat Jacob;G2384 and JacobG2384 begat the twelveG1427 patriarchs.G3966
9
And the patriarchs,G3966 movedG2206 with envy,G2206 soldG591 JosephG2501 intoG1519 Egypt:G125 but GodG2316 was with him,
10
And deliveredG1807 him out of allG3956 his afflictions,G2347 and gaveG1325 him favorG5485 and wisdomG4678 in the sightG1726 of PharaohG5328 kingG935 of Egypt;G125 and he madeG2525 him governorG2233 overG1909 EgyptG125 and allG3650 his house.G3624
11
NowG1161 there cameG2064 a dearthG3042 overG1909 allG3650 the landG1093 of EgyptG125 and Chanaan,G5477 and greatG3173 affliction:G2347 and our fathersG3962 foundG2147 noG3756 sustenance.G5527
12
But when JacobG2384 heardG191 that there was cornG4621 in Egypt,G125 he sentG1821 out our fathersG3962 first.G4412
13
And atG1722 the secondG1208 time JosephG2501 was madeG319 knownG319 to his brothers;G80 and Joseph'sG2501 kindredG1085 was madeG1096 knownG5318 to Pharaoh.G5328
14
ThenG1161 sentG649 Joseph,G2501 and calledG3333 his fatherG3962 JacobG2384 to him, and allG3956 his kindred,G4772 three scoreG1440 and fifteenG1440 G4002 souls.G5590
15
SoG1161 JacobG2384 wentG2597 downG2597 intoG1519 Egypt,G125 and died,G5053 he, and our fathers,G3962
16
And were carriedG3346 overG3346 intoG1519 Sychem,G4966 and laidG5087 in the sepulcherG3418 that AbrahamG11 boughtG5608 for a sumG5092 of moneyG694 of the sonsG5207 of EmmorG1697 the father of Sychem.G4966
17
But whenG2531 the timeG5550 of the promiseG1860 drew near,G1448 whichG3739 GodG2316 had swornG3660 to Abraham,G11 the peopleG2992 grewG837 and multipliedG4129 in Egypt,G125
18
TillG891 G3757 anotherG2087 kingG935 arose,G450 whichG3739 knewG1492 not Joseph.G2501
19
The sameG3778 dealtG2686 subtlyG2686 with our kindred,G1085 and evilG2559 entreatedG2559 our fathers,G3962 so that they castG4160 G1570 out their youngG1025 children,G1025 to the endG1519 they might not live.G2225
20
In whichG3739 timeG2540 MosesG3475 was born,G1080 and was exceedingG3588 G2316 fair,G791 and nourishedG397 up in his father'sG3962 houseG3624 threeG5140 months:G3376
21
And when he was castG1620 out, Pharaoh'sG5328 daughterG2364 tookG337 him up, and nourishedG397 him for her ownG1438 son.G5207
22
And MosesG3475 was learnedG3811 in allG3956 the wisdomG4678 of the Egyptians,G124 and was mightyG1415 in wordsG3056 and in deeds.G2041
23
And whenG5613 he was fullG4137 fortyG5063 yearsG5063 old,G5550 it cameG305 intoG1909 his heartG2588 to visitG1980 his brothersG80 the childrenG5207 of Israel.G2474
24
And seeingG1492 oneG5100 of them suffer wrong,G91 he defendedG292 him, and avengedG4160 G1557 him that was oppressed,G2669 and smoteG3960 the Egyptian:G124
25
For he supposedG3543 his brothersG80 would have understoodG4920 how that GodG2316 by his handG5495 would deliverG1325 them: but they understoodG4920 not.
26
And the nextG1966 dayG2250 he showedG3700 himself to them as they strove,G3164 and would have setG4900 them atG1519 oneG1515 again,G1515 saying,G2036 Sirs,G435 you are brothers;G80 whyG2444 doG91 you wrongG91 oneG240 to another?G240
27
But he that didG91 his neighborG4139 wrongG91 thrustG683 him away,G683 saying,G2036 WhoG5101 madeG2525 you a rulerG758 and a judgeG1348 overG1909 us?
28
WillG2309 you killG337 me, as you didG337 the EgyptianG124 yesterday?G5504
29
ThenG1161 fledG5343 MosesG3475 atG1722 thisG5129 saying,G3056 and was a strangerG3941 in the landG1093 of Madian,G3099 whereG3757 he begatG1080 twoG1417 sons.G5207
30
And when fortyG5062 yearsG2094 were expired,G4137 there appearedG3700 to him in the wildernessG2048 of mountG3735 SinaG4614 an angelG32 of the LordG2962 in a flameG5395 of fireG4442 in a bush.G942
31
When MosesG3475 sawG1492 it, he wonderedG2296 at the sight:G3705 and as he drewG4334 nearG4334 to beholdG2657 it, the voiceG5456 of the LORDG2962 cameG1096 to him,
32
Saying, I am the GodG2316 of your fathers,G3962 the GodG2316 of Abraham,G11 and the GodG2316 of Isaac,G2464 and the GodG2316 of Jacob.G2384 ThenG1161 MosesG3475 trembled,G1096 G1790 and daredG5111 not behold.G2657
33
ThenG1161 saidG2036 the LordG2962 to him, PutG3089 offG3089 your shoesG5266 from your feet:G4228 for the placeG5117 whereG1722 G3739 you standG2476 is holyG40 ground.G1093
34
I have seen,G1492 I have seenG1492 the afflictionG2561 of my peopleG2992 whichG3588 is in Egypt,G125 and I have heardG191 their groaning,G4726 and am comeG2597 downG2597 to deliverG1807 them. And nowG3568 come,G1204 I will sendG649 you intoG1519 Egypt.G125
35
ThisG5126 MosesG3475 whomG3739 they refused,G720 saying,G2036 WhoG5101 madeG2525 you a rulerG758 and a judge?G1348 the sameG5126 did GodG2316 sendG649 to be a rulerG758 and a delivererG3086 by the handG5495 of the angelG32 whichG3588 appearedG3700 to him in the bush.G942
36
He broughtG1806 them out, after that he had showedG4160 wondersG5059 and signsG4592 in the landG1093 of Egypt,G125 and in the RedG2281 sea,G2281 and in the wildernessG2048 fortyG5062 years.G2094
37
ThisG3778 is that Moses,G3475 whichG3588 saidG2036 to the childrenG5207 of Israel,G2474 A prophetG4396 shall the LordG2962 yourG5216 GodG2316 raiseG450 up to you of yourG5216 brothers,G80 likeG5613 to me; him shall you hear.G191
38
ThisG3778 is he, that was in the churchG1577 in the wildernessG2048 with the angelG32 whichG3588 spokeG2980 to him in the mountG3735 Sina,G4614 and with our fathers:G3962 whoG3739 receivedG1209 the livelyG2198 oraclesG3051 to giveG1325 to us:
39
To whomG3739 our fathersG3962 wouldG2309 not obey,G5255 G1036 but thrustG683 him from them, and in their heartsG2588 turnedG4762 backG4762 againG4762 intoG1519 Egypt,G125
40
SayingG2036 to Aaron,G2 MakeG4160 us godsG2316 to goG4313 beforeG4313 us: for as for thisG3778 Moses,G3475 whichG3739 broughtG1806 us out of the landG1093 of Egypt,G125 we knowG1492 not whatG5101 is becomeG1096 of him.
41
And they madeG3447 a calfG3447 in thoseG1565 days,G2250 and offeredG321 sacrificeG2378 to the idol,G1497 and rejoicedG2165 in the worksG2041 of their own hands.G5495
42
ThenG1161 GodG2316 turned,G4762 and gaveG3860 them up to worshipG3000 the hostG4756 of heaven;G3772 as it is writtenG1125 in the bookG976 of the prophets,G4396 O you houseG3624 of Israel,G2474 have you offeredG4374 to me slainG4968 beastsG4968 and sacrificesG2378 by the space of fortyG5062 yearsG2094 in the wilderness?G2048
43
Yes,G2532 you tookG353 up the tabernacleG4633 of Moloch,G3434 and the starG798 of yourG5216 godG2316 Remphan,G4481 figuresG5179 whichG3739 you madeG4160 to worshipG4352 them: and I will carryG3351 you awayG3351 beyondG1900 Babylon.G897
44
Our fathersG3962 hadG1510 the tabernacleG4633 of witnessG3142 in the wilderness,G2048 as he had appointed,G1299 speakingG2980 to Moses,G3475 that he should makeG4160 it accordingG2596 to the fashionG5179 that he had seen.G3708
45
WhichG3739 alsoG2532 our fathersG3962 that cameG1237 afterG3326 broughtG1521 in with JesusG2424 intoG1722 the possessionG2697 of the Gentiles,G1484 whomG3739 GodG2316 droveG1856 out beforeG575 the faceG4383 of our fathers,G3962 to the daysG2250 of David;G1138
46
WhoG3739 foundG2147 favorG5485 beforeG1799 God,G2316 and desiredG154 to findG2147 a tabernacleG4638 for the GodG2316 of Jacob.G2384
47
But SolomonG4672 builtG3618 him an house.G3624
48
However,G235 the mostG5310 HighG5310 dwellsG2730 not in templesG3485 madeG5499 with hands;G5499 as saidG3004 the prophet,G4396
49
HeavenG3772 is my throne,G2362 and earthG1093 is my footstool:G5286 G4228 whatG4169 houseG3624 will you buildG3618 me? saidG3004 the Lord:G2962 orG2228 whatG5101 is the placeG5117 of my rest?G2663
50
Has not my handG5495 madeG4160 allG3956 theseG5023 things?
51
You stiff neckedG4644 and uncircumcisedG564 in heartG2588 and ears,G3775 you do alwaysG104 resistG496 the HolyG40 Ghost:G4151 as yourG5216 fathersG3962 did, soG2532 do you.
52
WhichG5101 of the prophetsG4396 have not yourG5216 fathersG3962 persecuted?G1377 and they have slainG615 them whichG3588 showedG4293 beforeG4293 of the comingG1660 of the JustG1342 One; of whomG3739 you have beenG1096 nowG3568 the betrayersG4273 and murderers:G5406
53
WhoG3748 have receivedG2983 the lawG3551 by the dispositionG1296 of angels,G32 and have not keptG5442 it.
54
When they heardG191 theseG5023 things, they were cutG1282 to the heart,G2588 and they gnashedG1031 onG1909 him with their teeth.G3599
55
But he, beingG5225 fullG4134 of the HolyG40 Ghost,G4151 lookedG816 up steadfastlyG816 intoG1519 heaven,G3772 and sawG1492 the gloryG1391 of God,G2316 and JesusG2424 standingG2476 onG1537 the rightG1188 hand of God,G2316
56
And said,G2036 Behold,G2400 I seeG2334 the heavensG3772 opened,G455 and the SonG5207 of manG444 standingG2476 onG1537 the rightG1188 hand of God.G2316
57
ThenG1161 they criedG2896 out with a loudG3173 voice,G5456 and stoppedG4912 their ears,G3775 and ranG3729 on him with oneG3661 accord,G3661
58
And castG1544 him out of the city,G4172 and stonedG3036 him: and the witnessesG3144 laidG659 down their clothesG2440 atG3844 a youngG3494 man'sG3494 feet,G4228 whose nameG2564 was Saul.G4569
59
And they stonedG3036 Stephen,G4736 callingG1941 on God, and saying,G3004 LordG2962 Jesus,G2424 receiveG1209 my spirit.G4151
60
And he kneeledG5087 G1119 down, and criedG2896 with a loudG3173 voice,G5456 Lord,G2962 layG2476 not thisG5026 sinG266 to their charge.G846 And when he had saidG2036 this,G5124 he fell asleep.G2837
