Acts 7:2-37
2AndG1161 he saidG5346, MenG435, brethrenG80, andG2532 fathersG3962, hearkenG191; The GodG2316 of gloryG1391 appearedG3700 to ourG2257 fatherG3962 AbrahamG11, when he wasG5607 inG1722 MesopotamiaG3318, beforeG4250G2228 heG846 dweltG2730 inG1722 HaranG5488, 3AndG2532 saidG2036 toG4314 himG846, DepartG1831 fromG1537 thyG4675 countryG1093, andG2532 fromG1537 thyG4675 kindredG4772, andG2532 comeG1204 intoG1519 the landG1093 whichG3739G302 I shall showG1166 theeG4671. 4ThenG5119 he cameG1831 fromG1537 the landG1093 of the ChaldeansG5466, and dweltG2730 inG1722 HaranG5488: and from thereG2547, whenG3326 hisG846 fatherG3962 was deadG599, he removedG3351 himG846 intoG1519 thisG5026 landG1093, inG1519 whichG3739 yeG5210 nowG3568 dwellG2730. 5AndG2532 he gaveG1325 himG846 noG3756 inheritanceG2817 inG1722 itG846, no, notG3761 so much as to setG968 his footG4228 onG968: yetG2532 he promisedG1861 that he would giveG1325 itG846 to himG846 forG1519 a possessionG2697, andG2532 to hisG846 offspringG4690 afterG3326 himG846, when as yet heG846 hadG5607 noG3756 childG5043. 6AndG1161 GodG2316 spokeG2980 in this wayG3779, ThatG3754 hisG846 offspringG4690 shouldG2071 sojournG3941 inG1722 a foreignG245 landG1093; andG2532 that they should bringG1402 themG846 into bondageG1402, andG2532 oppressG2559 them four hundredG5071 yearsG2094. 7AndG2532 the nationG1484 to whomG3739G1437 they shall be in bondageG1398 willG2919 IG1473 judgeG2919, saidG2036 GodG2316: andG2532 afterG3326 thatG5023 they shall come forthG1831, andG2532 serveG3000 meG3427 inG1722 thisG5129 placeG5117. 8AndG2532 he gaveG1325 himG846 the covenantG1242 of circumcisionG4061: andG2532 soG3779 Abraham begatG1080 IsaacG2464, andG2532 circumcisedG4059 himG846 the eighthG3590 dayG2250; andG2532 IsaacG2464 begat JacobG2384; andG2532 JacobG2384 begat the twelveG1427 patriarchsG3966. 9AndG2532 the patriarchsG3966, moved with envyG2206, soldG591 JosephG2501 intoG1519 EgyptG125: butG2532 GodG2316 wasG2258 withG3326 himG846, 10AndG2532 deliveredG1807 himG846 fromG1537 allG3956 hisG846 afflictionsG2347, andG2532 gaveG1325 himG846 favourG5485 andG2532 wisdomG4678 in the sightG1726 of PharaohG5328 kingG935 of EgyptG125; andG2532 he madeG2525 himG846 governorG2233 overG1909 EgyptG125 andG2532 allG3650 hisG846 houseG3624. 11NowG1161 there cameG2064 a famineG3042 overG1909 allG3650 the landG1093 of EgyptG125 andG2532 CanaanG5477, andG2532 greatG3173 afflictionG2347: andG2532 ourG2257 fathersG3962 foundG2147 noG3756 sustenanceG5527. 12ButG1161 when JacobG2384 heardG191 that there wasG5607 grainG4621 inG1722 EgyptG125, he sent outG1821 ourG2257 fathersG3962 firstG4412. 13AndG2532 atG1722 the secondG1208 time JosephG2501 was made knownG319 to hisG846 brethrenG80; andG2532 Joseph’sG2501 kindredG1085 was madeG1096 knownG5318 to PharaohG5328. 14ThenG1161 JosephG2501 sentG649, and calledG3333 hisG846 fatherG3962 JacobG2384 to him, andG2532 allG3956 hisG846 kindredG4772, seventy and fiveG1440G4002 soulsG5590. 15SoG1161 JacobG2384 went downG2597 intoG1519 EgyptG125, andG2532 diedG5053, heG846, andG2532 ourG2257 fathersG3962, 16AndG2532 were carried overG3346 intoG1519 ShechemG4966, andG2532 laidG5087 inG1722 the sepulchreG3418 thatG3739 AbrahamG11 boughtG5608 for a sumG5092 of moneyG694 ofG3844 the sonsG5207 of EmmorG1697 the fatherG3588 of ShechemG4966.
17ButG1161 whenG2531 the timeG5550 of the promiseG1860 drew nearG1448, whichG3739 GodG2316 had swornG3660 to AbrahamG11, the peopleG2992 grewG837 andG2532 multipliedG4129 inG1722 EgyptG125, 18TillG891G3739 anotherG2087 kingG935 aroseG450, whoG3739 knewG1492 notG3756 JosephG2501. 19The sameG3778 dealt treacherouslyG2686 with ourG2257 kindredG1085, and oppressedG2559 ourG2257 fathersG3962, so thatG4160 they cast outG1570 theirG846 young childrenG1025, to the endG1519 they mightG2225 notG3361 liveG2225. 20InG1722 whichG3739 timeG2540 MosesG3475 was bornG1080, andG2532 wasG2258 exceedingG2316 fairG791, andG3739 nourishedG397 inG1722 hisG846 father’sG3962 houseG3624 threeG5140 monthsG3376:1 21AndG1161 when heG846 was cast outG1620, Pharaoh’sG5328 daughterG2364 tookG337 himG846 upG337, andG2532 nourishedG397 himG846 forG1519 her ownG1438 sonG5207. 22AndG2532 MosesG3475 was learnedG3811 in allG3956 the wisdomG4678 of the EgyptiansG124, andG1161 wasG2258 mightyG1415 inG1722 wordsG3056 andG2532 inG1722 deedsG2041. 23AndG1161 whenG5613 heG846 was fullG4137 forty yearsG5063 oldG5550, it cameG305 intoG1909 hisG846 heartG2588 to visitG1980 hisG846 brethrenG80 the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474. 24AndG2532 seeingG1492 oneG5100 of them suffer wrongG91, he defendedG292 him, andG2532 avengedG1557G4160 him that was oppressedG2669, and smoteG3960 the EgyptianG124: 25ForG1161 he supposedG3543 hisG846 brethrenG80 to understandG4920G3754 that GodG2316 byG1223 hisG846 handG5495 would deliverG1325G4991 themG846: butG1161 they understoodG4920 notG3756.2 26AndG5037 the nextG1966 dayG2250 he showed himselfG3700 to themG846 as they were fightingG3164, andG2532 would have constrainedG4900 themG846 to be atG1519 peace againG1515, sayingG2036, SirsG435, yeG5210 areG2075 brethrenG80; whyG2444 do ye wrongG91 one to anotherG240? 27ButG1161 he that didG91 his neighbourG4139 wrongG91 thrustG683 himG846 awayG683, sayingG2036, WhoG5101 madeG2525 theeG4571 a rulerG758 andG2532 a judgeG1348 overG1909 usG2248? 28WiltG3361G2309 thouG4771 killG337 meG3165, asG3739G5158 thou didstG337 the EgyptianG124 yesterdayG5504? 29ThenG1161 MosesG3475 fledG5343 atG1722 thisG5129 sayingG3056, andG2532 wasG1096 a strangerG3941 inG1722 the landG1093 of MidianG3099, whereG3757 he begatG1080 twoG1417 sonsG5207.
30AndG2532 when fortyG5062 yearsG2094 had passedG4137, there appearedG3700 to himG846 inG1722 the wildernessG2048 of mountG3735 SinaiG4614 an angelG32 of the LordG2962 inG1722 a flameG5395 of fireG4442 in a bushG942. 31WhenG1161 MosesG3475 sawG1492 it, he wonderedG2296 at the sightG3705: andG1161 as heG846 drew nearG4334 to beholdG2657 it, the voiceG5456 of the LordG2962 cameG1096 toG4314 himG846, 32Saying, IG1473 am the GodG2316 of thyG4675 fathersG3962, the GodG2316 of AbrahamG11, andG2532 the GodG2316 of IsaacG2464, andG2532 the GodG2316 of JacobG2384. ThenG1161 MosesG3475 trembledG1096G1790, and daredG5111 notG3756 beholdG2657. 33ThenG1161 saidG2036 the LordG2962 to himG846, Put offG3089 thy shoesG5266 from thyG4675 feetG4228: forG1063 the placeG5117 whereG1722G3739 thou standestG2476 isG2076 holyG40 groundG1093. 34I have seenG1492, I have seenG1492 the afflictionG2561 of myG3450 peopleG2992 whoG3588 are inG1722 EgyptG125, andG2532 I have heardG191 theirG846 groaningG4726, andG2532 am come downG2597 to deliverG1807 themG846. AndG2532 nowG3568 comeG1204, I will sendG649 theeG4571 intoG1519 EgyptG125. 35ThisG5126 MosesG3475 whomG3739 they refusedG720, sayingG2036, WhoG5101 madeG2525 theeG4571 a rulerG758 andG2532 a judgeG1348? the sameG5126 did GodG2316 sendG649 to be a rulerG758 andG2532 a delivererG3086 byG1722 the handG5495 of the angelG32 whoG3588 appearedG3700 to himG846 inG1722 the bushG942. 36HeG3778 broughtG1806 themG846 outG1806, after he had showedG4160 wondersG5059 andG2532 signsG4592 inG1722 the landG1093 of EgyptG125, andG2532 inG1722 the RedG2063 seaG2281, andG2532 inG1722 the wildernessG2048 fortyG5062 yearsG2094. 37ThisG3778 isG2076 that MosesG3475, whoG3588 saidG2036 to the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474, A prophetG4396 shallG450 the LordG2962 yourG5216 GodG2316 raise upG450 to youG5213 ofG1537 yourG5216 brethrenG80, likeG5613 meG1691; himG846 shall ye hearG191.3
