Acts 7:38-41

38ThisG3778 is the one who was in 1the 2assemblyG1577 in the wildernessG2048 togetherG3326 with 3the angelG32 who spokeG2980 to him at length on MountG3735 SinaiG4614, and who was with our fathersG3962; and he receivedG1209 4livingG2198 5wordsG3051 to passG1325 on to you.

39Our fathersG3962 were unwillingG3756G2309 to be obedientG5255 to him; onG235 theG235 contraryG235 they 6rejectedG683 him and turnedG4762 backG4762 to EgyptG125 in their heartsG2588,

407sayingG3004 to AaronG2, ‘MakeG4160 us 8a godG2316 whoG3739 will goG4313 beforeG4313 us; for thisG3778 MosesG3475 whoG3739 ledG1806 us outG1806 of the landG1093 of EgyptG125--we do not knowG3609 whatG5101 happenedG1096 to him.’

419At that timeG2250 10they madeG3447 aG3447 11calfG3447 and broughtG321 a sacrificeG2378 to the idolG1497, and were rejoicingG2165 in 12the worksG2041 of their handsG5495.
