Actes 7

1And^G1161 the high priest^G749 said^G2036, Are^G1487 these things^G5023 so^G2192? 2And^G1161 he said^G5346, Brethren^G80 and^G2532 fathers^G3962, hearken^G191: The God^G2316 of glory^G1391 appeared^G3700 unto^G3962 our^G2257 father^G3962 Abraham^G11, when he was^G5607 in^G1722 Mesopotamia^G3318, before^G4250 he^G846 dwelt^G2730 in^G1722 Haran^G5488, 3and^G2532 said^G2036 unto^G4314 him^G846, Get thee out^G1831 of^G1537 thy^G4675 land^G1093, and^G2532 from^G1537 thy^G4675 kindred^G4772, and^G2532 come^G1204 into^G1519 the land^G1093 which^G3739 I shall show^G1166 thee^G4671. 4Then^G5119 came he out^G1831 of^G1537 the land^G1093 of^G1537 the Chaldaeans^G5466, and dwelt^G2730 in^G1722 Haran^G5488: and from thence^G2547, when^G3326 his^G846 father^G3962 was dead^G599, God removed^G3351 him^G846 into^G1519 this^G3778 land^G1093, wherein^G1519 ye^G5210 now^G3568 dwell^G2730: 5and^G2532 he gave^G1325 him^G846 none^G3756 inheritance^G2817 in^G1722 it^G846, no, not^G3761 so much as to set^G968 his foot^G4228 on^G4228: and^G2532 he promised^G1861 that he would give^G1325 it^G1325 to him^G846 in^G1519 possession^G2697, and^G2532 to his^G846 seed^G4690 after^G3326 him^G846, when as yet he^G846 had^G5607 no^G3756 child^G5043. 6And^G1161 God^G2316 spake^G2980 on this wise^G3779, that^G3754 his^G846 seed^G4690 should^G2071 sojourn^G3941 in^G1722 a strange^G245 land^G1093, and^G2532 that they should bring^G1402 them^G846 into bondage^G1402, and^G2532 treat them ill^G2559, four hundred^G5071 years^G2094. 7And^G2532 the nation^G1484 to which^G3739 they shall be in bondage^G1398 will^G2919 I^G1473 judge^G2919, said^G2036 God^G2316: and^G2532 after^G3326 that^G5023 shall they come forth^G1831, and^G2532 serve^G3000 me^G3427 in^G1722 this^G5129 place^G5117. 8And^G2532 he gave^G1325 him^G846 the covenant^G1242 of circumcision^G4061: and^G2532 so^G3779 Abraham begat^G1080 Isaac^G2464, and^G2532 circumcised^G4059 him^G846 the eighth^G3590 day^G2250; and^G2532 Isaac^G2464 begat Jacob^G2384, and^G2532 Jacob^G2384 the twelve^G1427 patriarchs^G3966. 9And^G2532 the patriarchs^G3966, moved with jealousy^G2206 against Joseph^G2501, sold^G591 him into^G1519 Egypt^G125: and^G2532 God^G2316 was^G2258 with^G3326 him^G846, 10and^G2532 delivered^G1807 him^G846 out of^G1537 all^G3956 his^G846 afflictions^G2347, and^G2532 gave^G1325 him^G846 favor^G5485 and^G2532 wisdom^G4678 before Pharaoh^G5328 king^G935 of^G1726 Egypt^G125; and^G2532 he made^G2525 him^G846 governor^G2233 over^G1909 Egypt^G125 and^G2532 all^G3650 his^G846 house^G3624. 11Now^G1161 there came^G2064 a famine^G3042 over^G1909 all^G3650 Egypt^G125 and^G2532 Canaan^G5477, and^G2532 great^G3173 affliction^G2347: and^G2532 our^G2257 fathers^G3962 found^G2147 no^G3756 sustenance^G5527. 12But^G1161 when^G191 Jacob^G2384 heard^G191 that there was^G5607 grain^G4621 in^G1722 Egypt^G125, he sent forth^G1821 our^G2257 fathers^G3962 the first^G4412 time. 13And^G2532 at^G1722 the second^G1208 time Joseph^G2501 was made known^G319 to^G80 his^G846 brethren^G80; and^G2532 Joseph's^G2501 race^G1085 became^G1096 manifest^G5318 unto Pharaoh^G5328. 14And^G1161 Joseph^G2501 sent^G649, and^G1161 called^G3333 to^G1722 him Jacob^G2384 his^G846 father^G3962, and^G2532 all^G3956 his^G846 kindred^G4772, threescore^G1440 and fifteen^G4002 souls^G5590. 15And^G1161 Jacob^G2384 went down^G2597 into^G1519 Egypt^G125; and^G2532 he^G846 died^G5053, himself and^G2532 our^G2257 fathers^G3962; 16and^G2532 they were carried over^G3346 unto^G1519 Shechem^G4966, and^G2532 laid^G5087 in^G1722 the tomb^G3418 that^G3739 Abraham^G11 bought^G5608 for a price^G5092 in silver^G694 of^G3844 the sons^G5207 of Hamor^G1697 in^G3588 Shechem^G4966. 17But^G1161 as^G2531 the time^G5550 of the promise^G1860 drew nigh^G1448 which^G3739 God^G2316 vouchsafed^G3660 unto Abraham^G11, the people^G2992 grew^G837 and^G2532 multiplied^G4129 in^G1722 Egypt^G125, 18till^G891 there arose^G450 another^G2087 king^G935 over Egypt, who^G3739 knew^G1492 not^G3756 Joseph^G2501. 19The same^G3778 dealt craftily^G2686 with^G1085 our^G2257 race^G1085, and ill-treated^G2559 our^G2257 fathers^G3962, that they^G4160 should cast out^G1570 their^G846 babes^G1025 to the end^G1519 they might^G2225 not^G3361 live^G2225. 20At^G1722 which^G3739 season^G2540 Moses^G3475 was born^G1080, and^G2532 was^G2258 exceeding^G2316 fair^G791; and^G2532 he was nourished^G397 three^G5140 months^G3376 in^G1722 his^G846 father's^G3962 house^G3624. 21and^G1161 when he^G846 was cast out^G1620, Pharaoh's^G5328 daughter^G2364 took^G337 him^G846 up^G337, and^G2532 nourished^G397 him^G846 for^G1519 her own^G1438 son^G5207. 22And^G2532 Moses^G3475 was instructed^G3811 in all^G3956 the wisdom^G4678 of the Egyptians^G124; and^G1161 he was^G2258 mighty^G1415 in^G1722 his words^G3056 and^G2532 works^G2041. 23But^G1161 when^G5613 he^G846 was well-nigh^G4137 forty years^G5063 old^G5550, it came^G305 into^G1909 his^G846 heart^G2588 to visit^G1980 his^G846 brethren^G80 the children^G5207 of Israel^G2474. 24And^G2532 seeing^G1492 one^G5100 of them suffer wrong^G91, he defended^G292 him, and^G2532 avenged^G1557 him that was oppressed^G2669, smiting^G3960 the Egyptian^G124: 25and^G1161 he supposed^G3543 that his^G846 brethren^G80 understood^G4920 that^G3754 God^G2316 by^G1223 his^G846 hand^G5495 was giving them^G846 deliverance^G1325; but^G1161 they understood^G4920 not^G3756. 26And^G5037 the day^G2250 following^G1966 he appeared^G3700 unto them^G846 as they strove^G3164, and^G2532 would have set^G4900 them^G846 at^G1519 one^G1515 again^G4900, saying^G2036, Sirs^G435, ye^G5210 are^G2075 brethren^G80; why^G2444 do ye wrong^G91 one to another^G240? 27But^G1161 he that did^G91 his neighbor^G4139 wrong^G91 thrust^G683 him^G846 away^G683, saying^G2036, Who^G5101 made^G2525 thee^G4571 a ruler^G758 and^G2532 a judge^G1348 over^G1909 us^G2248? 28Wouldest^G3361 thou^G4771 kill^G337 me^G3165, as^G3739 thou^G4771 killedst^G337 the Egyptian^G124 yesterday^G5504? 29And^G1161 Moses^G3475 fled^G5343 at^G1722 this^G5129 saying^G3056, and^G2532 became^G1096 a sojourner^G3941 in^G1722 the land^G1093 of Midian^G3099, where^G3757 he begat^G1080 two^G1417 sons^G5207. 30And^G2532 when^G4137 forty^G5062 years^G2094 were fulfilled^G4137, an angel^G32 appeared^G3700 to him^G846 in^G1722 the wilderness^G2048 of Mount^G3735 Sinai^G4614, in^G1722 a flame^G5395 of fire^G4442 in a bush^G942. 31And when^G1161 Moses^G3475 saw^G1492 it, he wondered^G2296 at the sight^G3705: and^G1161 as he drew near^G4334 to behold^G2657, there came^G1096 a voice^G5456 of the Lord^G2962, 32I^G1473 am the God^G2316 of^G3962 thy^G4675 fathers^G3962, the God^G2316 of Abraham^G11, and^G2532 of Isaac^G2464, and^G2532 of Jacob^G2384. And^G1161 Moses^G3475 trembled^G1096, and durst^G5111 not^G3756 behold^G2657. 33And^G1161 the Lord^G2962 said^G2036 unto him^G846, Loose^G3089 the^G4675 shoes^G5266 from^G4228 thy^G4675 feet^G4228: for^G1063 the place^G5117 whereon^G1722 thou standest^G2476 is^G2076 holy^G40 ground^G1093. 34I have surely^G1492 seen^G1492 the affliction^G2561 of^G2992 my^G3450 people^G2992 that^G3588 is in^G1722 Egypt^G125, and^G2532 have heard^G191 their^G846 groaning^G4726, and^G2532 I am come down^G2597 to deliver^G1807 them^G846: and^G2532 now^G3568 come^G1204, I will send^G649 thee^G4571 into^G1519 Egypt^G125. 35This^G5126 Moses^G3475 whom^G3739 they refused^G720, saying^G2036, Who^G5101 made^G2525 thee^G4571 a ruler^G758 and^G2532 a judge^G1348? him^G5126 hath^G649 God^G2316 sent^G649 to be both a ruler^G758 and^G2532 a deliverer^G3086 with^G1722 the hand^G5495 of the angel^G32 that^G3588 appeared^G3700 to him^G846 in^G1722 the bush^G942. 36This man^G3778 led^G1806 them^G846 forth^G1806, having wrought^G4160 wonders^G5059 and^G2532 signs^G4592 in^G1722 Egypt^G125, and^G2532 in^G1722 the^G2281 Red^G2063 Sea^G2281, and^G2532 in^G1722 the wilderness^G2048 forty^G5062 years^G2094. 37This^G3778 is^G2076 that^G3778 Moses^G3475, who said^G2036 unto the children^G5207 of Israel^G2474, A prophet^G4396 shall^G450 God^G2316 raise up^G450 unto you^G5213 from^G1537 among your^G5216 brethren^G80, like^G5613 unto me^G1691. 38This^G3778 is^G2076 he that was^G1096 in^G1722 the church^G1577 in^G1722 the wilderness^G2048 with^G3326 the angel^G32 that^G3588 spake^G2980 to him^G846 in^G1722 the Mount^G3735 Sinai^G4614, and^G2532 with our^G2257 fathers^G3962: who^G3739 received^G1209 living^G2198 oracles^G3051 to give^G1325 unto us^G2254: 39to whom^G3739 our^G2257 fathers^G3962 would^G2309 not^G3756 be^G1096 obedient^G5255, but^G235 thrust^G683 him from them^G683, and^G2532 turned back^G4762 in^G2588 their^G846 hearts^G2588 unto^G1519 Egypt^G125, 40saying^G2036 unto Aaron^G2, Make^G4160 us^G2254 gods^G2316 that^G3739 shall go before^G4313 us^G2257: for^G1063 as for this^G3778 Moses^G3475, who^G3739 led^G1806 us^G2248 forth out^G1806 of^G1537 the land^G1093 of Egypt^G125, we know^G1492 not^G3756 what^G5101 is become^G1096 of him^G846. 41And^G2532 they made a calf^G3447 in^G1722 those^G1565 days^G2250, and^G2532 brought^G321 a sacrifice^G2378 unto the idol^G1497, and^G2532 rejoiced^G2165 in^G1722 the works^G2041 of their^G846 hands^G5495. 42But^G1161 God^G2316 turned^G4762, and^G2532 gave^G3860 them^G846 up^G3860 to serve^G3000 the host^G4756 of heaven^G3772; as^G2531 it is written^G1125 in^G1722 the book^G976 of the prophets^G4396, Did ye offer^G4374 unto me^G3427 slain beasts^G4968 and^G2532 sacrifices^G2378 Forty^G5062 years^G2094 in^G1722 the wilderness^G2048, O house^G3624 of Israel^G3361? 43And^G2532 ye took up^G353 the tabernacle^G4633 of^G2316 Moloch^G3434, And^G2532 the star^G798 of^G2316 the god^G2316 Rephan^G4481, The figures^G5179 which^G3739 ye made^G4160 to worship^G4352 them^G846: And^G2532 I will carry^G3351 you^G5209 away^G3351 beyond^G1900 Babylon^G897. 44Our^G2257 fathers^G3962 had^G2258 the tabernacle^G4633 of the testimony^G3142 in^G1722 the wilderness^G2048, even as^G2531 he appointed^G1299 who spake^G2980 unto Moses^G3475, that he should make^G4160 it^G846 according to^G2596 the figure^G5179 that^G3739 he had seen^G3708. 45Which^G3739 also^G2532 our^G2257 fathers^G3962, in their turn^G1237, brought in^G1521 with^G3326 Joshua^G2424 when they entered on^G1722 the possession^G2697 of the nations^G1484, that^G3739 God^G2316 thrust out^G1856 before^G575 the face^G4383 of^G3962 our^G2257 fathers^G3962, unto^G2193 the days^G2250 of David^G1138; 46who^G3739 found^G2147 favor^G5485 in the sight^G1799 of God^G2316, and^G2532 asked^G154 to find^G2147 a habitation^G4638 for the God^G2316 of Jacob^G2384. 47But^G1161 Solomon^G4672 built^G3618 him^G846 a house^G3624. 48Howbeit^G235 the Most High^G5310 dwelleth^G2730 not^G3756 in^G1722 houses^G3485 made with hands^G5499; as^G2531 saith^G3004 the prophet^G4396, 49The heaven^G3772 is my^G3427 throne^G2362, And^G1161 the earth^G1093 the^G3450 footstool^G5286 of my feet: What^G4169 manner of house^G3624 will ye build^G3618 Me^G3427? saith^G3004 the Lord^G2962: Or^G2228 what^G5101 is the place^G5117 of^G2663 my^G3450 rest^G2663? 50Did^G4160 not^G3780 my^G3450 hand^G5495 make^G4160 all^G3956 these things^G5023? 51Ye^G5210 stiffnecked^G4644 and^G2532 uncircumcised^G564 in heart^G2588 and^G2532 ears^G3775, ye do^G496 always^G104 resist^G496 the^G4151 Holy^G40 Spirit^G4151: as^G5613 your^G5216 fathers^G3962 did, so^G2532 do ye^G5210. 52Which^G5101 of the prophets^G4396 did^G1377 not^G3756 your^G5216 fathers^G3962 persecute^G1377? and^G2532 they killed^G615 them that^G3588 showed before^G4293 of^G4012 the coming^G1660 of the Righteous One^G1342; of whom^G3739 ye^G5210 have now^G3568 become^G1096 betrayers^G4273 and^G2532 murderers^G5406; 53ye who^G3748 received^G2983 the law^G3551 as it was ordained^G1296 by^G1519 angels^G32, and^G2532 kept^G5442 it not^G3756. 54Now when^G1161 they heard^G191 these things^G5023, they were cut^G1282 to the heart^G846, and^G2532 they gnashed^G1031 on^G1909 him^G846 with^G3599 their teeth^G3599. 55But^G1161 he, being^G5225 full^G4134 of the^G4151 Holy^G40 Spirit^G4151, looked^G816 up^G1519 stedfastly^G816 into^G1519 heaven^G3772, and^G2532 saw^G1492 the glory^G1391 of God^G2316, and^G2532 Jesus^G2424 standing^G2476 on^G1537 the right hand^G1188 of God^G2316, 56and^G2532 said^G2036, Behold^G2400, I see^G2334 the heavens^G3772 opened^G455, and^G2532 the Son^G5207 of Man^G444 standing^G2476 on^G1537 the right hand^G1188 of God^G2316. 57But^G1161 they cried out^G2896 with a^G5456 loud^G3173 voice^G5456, and stopped^G4912 their^G846 ears^G3775, and^G2532 rushed^G3729 upon^G1909 him^G846 with one accord^G3661; 58and^G2532 they cast^G1544 him out^G1854 of the city^G4172, and^G2532 stoned^G3036 him: and^G2532 the witnesses^G3144 laid down^G659 their^G846 garments^G2440 at^G3844 the feet^G4228 of a young man^G3494 named^G2564 Saul^G4569. 59And^G2532 they stoned^G3036 Stephen^G4736, calling upon^G1941 the Lord, and^G2532 saying^G3004, Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424, receive^G1209 my^G3450 spirit^G4151. 60And^G1161 he kneeled^G5087 down^G1119, and^G1161 cried^G2896 with a^G5456 loud^G3173 voice^G5456, Lord^G2962, lay^G2476 not^G3361 this^G3778 sin^G266 to their^G846 charge^G2476. And^G2532 when he had said^G2036 this^G5124, he fell asleep^G2837.
