Acts 7:6-10
6GodG2316 toldG2980 him thatG3754 hisG846 descendantsG4690 would beG1510 foreignersG3941 inG1722 a strangeG245 landG1093, andG2532 that they would be enslavedG1402G846 andG2532 mistreatedG2559 four hundredG5071 yearsG2094. 7‘But IG1473 will punishG2919 theG3588 nationG1484 that enslaves themG1437G1398,’ GodG2316 saidG2036, ‘andG2532 afterwardG3326G3778 they will come forthG1831 andG2532 worshipG3000 MeG1473 inG1722 thisG3778 placeG5117.’1
8ThenG2532 God gaveG1325 Abraham the covenantG1242 of circumcisionG4061, andG2532 Abraham became the father ofG1080 IsaacG2464 andG2532 circumcisedG4059 himG846 on theG3588 eighthG3590 dayG2250. AndG2532 IsaacG2464 became the father of JacobG2384, andG2532 JacobG2384 of theG3588 twelveG1427 patriarchsG3966.
9Because theG3588 patriarchsG3966 were jealousG2206 of JosephG2501, they sold him as a slaveG591 intoG1519 EgyptG125. ButG2532 GodG2316 wasG1510 withG3326 himG846 10andG2532 rescuedG1807 himG846 fromG1537 allG3956 hisG846 troublesG2347. He grantedG1325 Joseph favorG5485 andG2532 wisdomG4678 in the sight ofG1726 PharaohG5328 kingG935 of EgyptG125, who appointedG2525 himG846 rulerG2233 overG1909 EgyptG125 andG2532 allG3650 hisG846 householdG3624.
