Acts 7:30-37
30“After fortyG5065 yearsG2094 had passedG4137, 1an angelG32 appearedG3708 to him in the wildernessG2048 of MountG3735 SinaiG4614, in the flameG5395 of a burningG4442 thornG942 bushG942. 31When MosesG3475 sawG3708 it, he wasG2296 astonishedG2296 at the sightG3705; and as he approachedG4334 to lookG2657 more closelyG2657, the voiceG5456 of the LordG2962 cameG1096: 32‘2I am the GodG2316 of your fathersG3962, the GodG2316 of AbrahamG11, and IsaacG2464, and JacobG2384.’ MosesG3475 shookG1790 withG1790 fearG1790 and did not dareG5111 to lookG2657 closelyG2657. 333But the LordG2962 saidG3004 to him, ‘45RemoveG3089 your sandalsG5266 from your feetG4228, for the placeG5117 on whichG3739 you are standingG2476 is holyG40 groundG1093. 346I have certainlyG3708 seenG3708 the oppressionG2561 of My peopleG2992 who are in EgyptG125, and have heardG191 their groaningG4726, and I have comeG2597 downG2597 to rescueG1807 them; and 7nowG3568 comeG1204, I will sendG649 you to EgyptG125.’
35“ThisG3778 MosesG3475 whomG3739 they 8disownedG720, sayingG3004, ‘WhoG5101 madeG2525 you a rulerG758 and a judgeG1348?’ is the oneG3778 whomG3778 GodG2316 9sentG649 to be bothG2532 a rulerG758 and a delivererG3086 with the 10helpG5495 of the angelG32 who appearedG3708 to him in the thornG942 bushG942. 3611ThisG3778 manG3778 ledG1806 them outG1806, performingG4160 12wondersG5059 and 13signsG4592 in the landG1093 of EgyptG125 and in the RedG2063 SeaG2281, and in the 14wildernessG2048 for fortyG5065 yearsG2094. 37ThisG3778 is the MosesG3475 who saidG3004 to the sonsG5207 of IsraelG2474, ‘15GodG2316 will raiseG450 up for you a prophetG4396 16likeG5613 me from your countrymenG80.’
