1: Said_G2036 then_G1161 the_G3588 high priest,_G0749 If_G1487 these things_G3778 so_G3779 are?_G2192

2: -_G3588 And_G1161 he began to speak:_G5346 Men,_G0435 brothers,_G0080 and_G2532 fathers,_G3962 listen!_G0191 The_G3588 God_G2316 -_G3588 of glory_G1391 appeared_G3708 to the_G3588 father_G3962 of us_G1473 Abraham,_G0011 being_G1510 in_G1722 -_G3588 Mesopotamia,_G3318 before_G4250 rather_G2228 dwelling_G2730 his_G0846 in_G1722 Haran,_G5488

3: and_G2532 He said_G2036 to_G4314 him,_G0846 Go out_G1831 from_G1537 the_G3588 country_G1093 of you_G4771 and_G2532 from_G1537 the_G3588 kindred_G4772 of you,_G4771 and_G2532 come_G1204 into_G1519 the_G3588 land_G1093 which_G3739 -_G0302 to you_G4771 I will show._G1166

4: Then_G5119 having gone out_G1831 from_G1537 [the] land_G1093 of Chaldeans,_G5466 he dwelt_G2730 in_G1722 Haran._G5488 And from there,_G2547 after_G3326 -_G3588 died_G0599 the_G3588 father_G3962 of him,_G0846 He removed_G3351 him_G0846 into_G1519 the_G3588 land_G1093 this,_G3778 in_G1519 which_G3739 you_G4771 now_G3568 dwell._G2730

5: And_G2532 not_G3756 He did give_G1325 to him_G0846 an inheritance_G2817 in_G1722 it,_G0846 not even_G3761 [the] length_G0968 of a foot;_G4228 but_G2532 He promised_G1861 to give_G1325 to him_G0846 for_G1519 a possession_G2697 it,_G0846 and_G2532 to the_G3588 descendants_G4690 of him_G0846 after_G3326 him,_G0846 not_G3756 there being_G1510 to him_G0846 a child._G5043

6: Spoke_G2980 however_G1161 thus_G3779 -_G3588 God_G2316 that_G3754 will be_G1510 the_G3588 seed_G4690 of him_G0846 a sojourner_G3941 in_G1722 a land_G1093 strange,_G0245 and_G2532 they will enslave_G1402 it,_G0846 and_G2532 will mistreat [it]_G2559 years_G2094 four hundred._G5071

7: And_G2532 the_G3588 nation_G1484 to which_G3739 if_G1437 they will be in bondage,_G1398 will judge_G2919 I,_G1473 -_G3588 God_G2316 said,_G2036 and_G2532 after_G3326 these things_G3778 they will come forth_G1831 and_G2532 will serve_G3000 Me_G1473 in_G1722 the_G3588 place_G5117 this._G3778

8: And_G2532 He gave_G1325 to him_G0846 [the] covenant_G1242 of circumcision;_G4061 and_G2532 thus_G3779 he begat_G1080 -_G3588 Isaac_G2464 and_G2532 circumcised_G4059 him_G0846 on the_G3588 day_G2250 -_G3588 eighth;_G3590 and_G2532 Isaac_G2464 -_G3588 Jacob,_G2384 and_G2532 Jacob_G2384 the_G3588 twelve_G1427 patriarchs._G3966

9: And_G2532 the_G3588 patriarchs,_G3966 having envied_G2206 -_G3588 Joseph,_G2501 sold [him]_G0591 into_G1519 Egypt._G0125 But_G2532 was_G1510 -_G3588 God_G2316 with_G3326 him,_G0846

10: and_G2532 rescued_G1807 him_G0846 out of_G1537 all_G3956 the_G3588 tribulations_G2347 of him,_G0846 and_G2532 gave_G1325 him_G0846 favor_G5485 and_G2532 wisdom_G4678 before_G1726 Pharaoh,_G5328 king_G0935 of Egypt;_G0125 and_G2532 he appointed_G2525 him_G0846 ruler_G2233 over_G1909 Egypt,_G0125 and_G2532 over_G1909 all_G3650 the_G3588 house_G3624 of him._G0846

11: Came_G2064 then_G1161 a famine_G3042 upon_G1909 all_G3650 -_G3588 of Egypt_G0125 and_G2532 Canaan,_G5477 and_G2532 affliction_G2347 great,_G3173 and_G2532 not_G3756 were finding_G2147 sustenance_G5527 the_G3588 fathers_G3962 of us._G1473

12: Having heard_G0191 now_G1161 Jacob_G2384 [there] is_G1510 grain_G4621 in_G1519 Egypt,_G0125 he sent forth_G1821 the_G3588 fathers_G3962 of us_G1473 first;_G4412

13: and_G2532 on_G1722 the_G3588 second time,_G1208 was made known_G0319 Joseph_G2501 to_G3588 brothers_G0080 of him,_G0846 and_G2532 known_G5318 became_G1096 -_G3588 to Pharaoh_G5328 the_G3588 family_G1085 -_G3588 of Joseph._G2501

14: Having sent_G0649 then_G1161 Joseph,_G2501 he called for_G3333 Jacob,_G2384 the_G3588 father_G3962 of him,_G0846 and_G2532 all_G3956 the_G3588 kindred,_G4772 in all_G1722 souls_G5590 seventy_G1440 five._G4002

15: And_G2532 went down_G2597 Jacob_G2384 into_G1519 Egypt_G0125 and_G2532 died,_G5053 he_G0846 and_G2532 the_G3588 fathers_G3962 of us,_G1473

16: and_G2532 they were carried over_G3346 into_G1519 Shechem_G4966 and_G2532 were placed_G5087 in_G1722 the_G3588 tomb_G3418 which_G3739 had bought_G5608 Abraham_G0011 for a sum_G5092 of silver_G0694 from_G3844 the_G3588 sons_G5207 of Hamor_G1697 in_G1722 Shechem._G4966

17: As_G2531 now_G1161 was drawing near_G1448 the_G3588 time_G5550 of the_G3588 promise_G1860 that_G3739 had made_G3670 -_G3588 God_G2316 -_G3588 to Abraham,_G0011 increased_G0837 the_G3588 people_G2992 and_G2532 multiplied_G4129 in_G1722 Egypt,_G0125

18: until_G0891 that_G3739 there arose_G0450 king_G0935 another_G2087 over_G1909 Egypt,_G0125 who_G3739 not_G3756 knew_G1492 -_G3588 Joseph._G2501

19: He_G3778 having dealt treacherously with_G2686 the_G3588 race_G1085 of us,_G1473 he mistreated_G2559 the_G3588 fathers_G3962 of us,_G1473 -_G3588 making [them]_G4160 the_G3588 infants_G1025 abandon_G1570 of them_G0846 unto_G1519 the_G3588 not_G3361 they would live._G2225

20: In_G1722 that_G3739 time_G2540 was born_G1080 Moses,_G3475 and_G2532 he was_G1510 beautiful_G0791 -_G3588 to God,_G2316 who_G3739 was brought up_G0397 months_G3376 three_G5140 in_G1722 the_G3588 house_G3624 of the_G3588 father._G3962

21: Having been set outside_G1620 then_G1161 he,_G0846 took up_G0337 him_G0846 the_G3588 daughter_G2364 of Pharaoh,_G5328 and_G2532 brought up_G0397 him_G0846 for herself_G1438 for_G1519 a son._G5207

22: And_G2532 was instructed_G3811 Moses_G3475 in_G1722 all_G3956 [the] wisdom_G4678 of [the] Egyptians;_G0124 he was_G1510 now_G1161 mighty_G1415 in_G1722 words_G3056 and_G2532 deeds_G2041 of him._G0846

23: When_G5613 then_G1161 was fulfilled_G4137 to him_G0846 of forty years_G5063 a period,_G5550 it came_G0305 into_G1909 the_G3588 mind_G2588 of him_G0846 to visit_G1980 the_G3588 brothers_G0080 of him,_G0846 the_G3588 sons_G5207 of Israel._G2474

24: And_G2532 having seen_G3708 a certain one_G5100 being wronged,_G0091 he defended [him]_G0292 and_G2532 did_G4160 vengeance_G1557 for the [one]_G3588 being oppressed,_G2669 having struck down_G3960 the_G3588 Egyptian._G0124

25: He was supposing_G3543 now_G1161 to understand_G4920 the_G3588 brothers_G0080 of him_G0846 that_G3754 -_G3588 God_G2316 by_G1223 [the] hand_G5495 of him_G0846 is giving_G1325 salvation_G4991 them,_G0846 -_G3588 but_G1161 not_G3756 they understood._G4920

26: On the_G3588 and_G5037 following_G1966 day,_G2250 he appeared_G3708 to those who_G0846 were quarreling_G3164 and_G2532 urged_G4900 them_G0846 to_G1519 peace,_G1515 having said,_G2036 Men,_G0435 brothers_G0080 you are._G1510 So that_G2443 why_G5101 wrong you_G0091 one another?_G0240

27: The [one]_G3588 however_G1161 mistreating_G0091 the_G3588 neighbor_G4139 pushed away_G0683 him,_G0846 having said,_G2036 Who_G5101 you_G4771 appointed,_G2525 ruler_G0758 and_G2532 judge_G1348 over_G1909 us?_G1473

28: Not_G3361 to kill_G0337 me_G1473 you_G4771 desire,_G2309 the same_G3739 way_G5158 you put to death_G0337 yesterday_G5504 the_G3588 Egyptian?_G0124

29: Fled_G5343 then_G1161 Moses_G3475 at_G1722 the_G3588 remark_G3056 this,_G3778 and_G2532 became_G1096 exiled_G3941 in_G1722 [the] land_G1093 of Midian,_G3099 where_G3757 he begat_G1080 sons_G5207 two._G1417

30: And_G2532 having been passed_G4137 years_G2094 forty,_G5062 appeared_G3708 to him_G0846 in_G1722 the_G3588 wilderness_G2048 of the_G3588 Mount_G3735 Sinai_G4614 an angel_G0032 in_G1722 a flame_G5395 of fire_G4442 of a bush._G0942

31: -_G3588 And_G1161 Moses_G3475 having seen [it],_G3708 marveled at_G2296 the_G3588 vision;_G3705 coming near_G4334 then_G1161 of him_G0846 to behold [it],_G2657 there was_G1096 [the] voice_G5456 of [the] Lord:_G2962

32: I [am]_G1473 the_G3588 God_G2316 of the_G3588 fathers_G3962 of you,_G4771 the_G3588 God_G2316 of Abraham,_G0011 and_G2532 of Isaac,_G2464 and_G2532 of Jacob._G2384 Terrified_G1790 then_G1161 having become_G1096 Moses,_G3475 not_G3756 he dared_G5111 to look._G2657

33: Said_G2036 then_G1161 to him_G0846 the_G3588 Lord,_G2962 Take off_G3089 the_G3588 sandal_G5266 of the_G3588 feet_G4228 of you,_G4771 -_G3588 for_G1063 the place_G5117 on_G1909 which_G3739 you stand,_G2476 ground_G1093 holy_G0040 is._G1510

34: Having seen,_G3708 I saw_G3708 the_G3588 oppression_G2561 of the_G3588 people_G2992 of Me_G1473 -_G3588 in_G1722 Egypt,_G0125 and_G2532 the_G3588 groans_G4726 of them_G0846 I have heard,_G0191 and_G2532 I have come down_G2597 to deliver_G1807 them;_G0846 and_G2532 now_G3568 come,_G1204 I will send_G0649 you_G4771 to_G1519 Egypt._G0125

35: This_G3778 -_G3588 Moses,_G3475 whom_G3739 they rejected,_G0720 having said,_G2036 Who_G5101 you_G4771 appointed_G2525 ruler_G0758 and_G2532 judge? —_G1348 him_G3778 whom_G3588 God [as]_G2316 and_G2532 ruler_G0758 and_G2532 redeemer_G3086 sent_G0649 by_G4862 [the] hand_G5495 of [the] angel_G0032 -_G3588 having appeared_G3708 to him_G0846 in_G1722 the_G3588 bush—_G0942

36: this one_G3778 led out_G1806 them,_G0846 having done_G4160 wonders_G5059 and_G2532 signs_G4592 in_G1722 [the] land_G1093 of Egypt,_G0125 and_G2532 in_G1722 [the] Red_G2063 Sea,_G2281 and_G2532 in_G1722 the_G3588 wilderness_G2048 years_G2094 forty._G5062

37: This_G3778 is_G1510 the_G3588 Moses_G3475 -_G3588 having said_G2036 to the_G3588 sons_G5207 of Israel,_G2474 A prophet_G4396 for you_G4771 will raise up_G0450 -_G3588 God_G2316 out from_G1537 the_G3588 brothers_G0080 of you,_G4771 like_G5613 me._G1473

38: This_G3778 is_G1510 the [one]_G3588 having been_G1096 in_G1722 the_G3588 congregation_G1577 in_G1722 the_G3588 wilderness,_G2048 with_G3326 the_G3588 angel_G0032 -_G3588 speaking_G2980 to him_G0846 in_G1722 the_G3588 Mount_G3735 Sinai,_G4614 and_G2532 of the_G3588 fathers_G3962 of us,_G1473 who_G3739 received_G1209 oracles_G3051 living_G2198 to give_G1325 to us,_G1473

39: to whom_G3739 not_G3756 were willing_G2309 obedient_G5255 to be_G1096 the_G3588 fathers_G3962 of us,_G1473 but_G0235 thrust away,_G0683 and_G2532 turned back_G4762 in_G1722 the_G3588 hearts_G2588 of them_G0846 to_G1519 Egypt,_G0125

40: having said_G2036 -_G3588 to Aaron,_G0002 Make_G4160 us_G1473 gods_G2316 who_G3739 will go before_G4313 us._G1473 -_G3588 As for_G1063 Moses_G3475 this,_G3778 who_G3739 brought out_G1806 us_G1473 from_G1537 [the] land_G1093 of Egypt,_G0125 not_G3756 we know_G1492 what_G5101 has happened_G1096 to him._G0846

41: And_G2532 they made a calf_G3447 in_G1722 the_G3588 days_G2250 those_G1565 and_G2532 offered_G0321 a sacrifice_G2378 to the_G3588 idol,_G1497 and_G2532 they were rejoicing_G2165 in_G1722 the_G3588 works_G2041 of the_G3588 hands_G5495 of them._G0846

42: Turned away_G4762 however_G1161 -_G3588 God_G2316 and_G2532 delivered_G3860 them_G0846 to worship_G3000 the_G3588 host_G4756 of_G3588 heaven,_G3772 as_G2531 it has been written_G1125 in [the]_G1722 book_G0976 of the_G3588 prophets:_G4396 Not_G3361 slain beasts_G4968 and_G2532 sacrifices_G2378 did you offer_G4374 to Me,_G1473 years_G2094 forty_G5062 in_G1722 the_G3588 wilderness,_G2048 O house_G3624 of Israel?_G2474

43: And_G2532 You took up_G0353 the_G3588 tabernacle_G4633 -_G3588 of Moloch,_G3434 and_G2532 the_G3588 star_G0798 of the_G3588 god_G2316 of you_G4771 Rephan,_G4481 the_G3588 images_G5179 that_G3739 you made_G4160 to worship_G4352 them;_G0846 and_G2532 I will remove_G3351 you_G4771 beyond_G1900 Babylon._G0897

44: The_G3588 tabernacle_G4633 of the_G3588 testimony_G3142 was_G1510 with_G3588 fathers_G3962 of us_G1473 in_G1722 the_G3588 wilderness,_G2048 just as_G2531 had commanded_G1299 the [One]_G3588 speaking_G2980 -_G3588 to Moses,_G3475 to make_G4160 it_G0846 according to_G2596 the_G3588 pattern_G5179 that_G3739 he had seen,_G3708

45: which_G3739 also_G2532 brought [it],_G1521 having received by succession,_G1237 the_G3588 fathers_G3962 of us,_G1473 with_G3326 Joshua_G2424 in_G1722 the_G3588 taking possession_G2697 of the_G3588 nations_G1484 whom_G3739 drove out_G1856 -_G3588 God_G2316 from [the]_G0575 face_G4383 of the_G3588 fathers_G3962 of us,_G1473 until_G2193 the_G3588 days_G2250 of David,_G1138

46: who_G3739 found_G2147 favor_G5485 before_G1799 -_G3588 God_G2316 and_G2532 asked_G0154 to find_G2147 a dwelling place_G4638 for the_G3588 God_G2316 of Jacob._G2384

47: Solomon_G4672 however_G1161 built_G3618 Him_G0846 [the] house._G3624

48: Yet_G0235 not_G3756 the_G3588 Most High_G5310 in_G1722 hand-made [houses]_G5499 dwells._G2730 As_G2531 the_G3588 prophet_G4396 says:_G3004

49: -_G3588 Heaven [is]_G3772 to Me_G1473 a throne,_G2362 -_G3588 and_G1161 the earth_G1093 a footstool_G5286 of the_G3588 feet_G4228 of Me._G1473 What kind of_G4169 house_G3624 will you build_G3618 Me,_G1473 says_G3004 [the] Lord,_G2962 or_G2228 what [is]_G5101 [the] place_G5117 of the_G3588 rest_G2663 of Me?_G1473

50: Not_G3780 the_G3588 hand_G5495 of Me_G1473 has made_G4160 these things_G3778 all?_G3956

51: Stiff-necked_G4644 and_G2532 uncircumcised_G0564 in heart_G2588 and_G2532 -_G3588 ears,_G3775 you_G4771 always_G0104 the_G3588 Spirit_G4151 -_G3588 Holy_G0040 resist;_G0496 as_G5613 the_G3588 fathers_G3962 of you,_G4771 also_G2532 you._G4771

52: Which_G5101 of the_G3588 prophets_G4396 not_G3756 did persecute_G1377 the_G3588 fathers_G3962 of you?_G4771 And_G2532 they killed_G0615 those_G3588 having foretold_G4293 about_G4012 the_G3588 coming_G1660 of the_G3588 Righteous One,_G1342 of whom_G3739 now_G3568 you_G4771 betrayers_G4273 and_G2532 murderers_G5406 have become,_G1096

53: who_G3748 received_G2983 the_G3588 law_G3551 by_G1519 [the] ordination_G1296 of angels,_G0032 and_G2532 not_G3756 have kept [it]._G5442

54: Hearing_G0191 now_G1161 these things,_G3778 they were cut_G1282 in the_G3588 hearts_G2588 of them_G0846 and_G2532 began gnashing_G1031 the_G3588 teeth_G3599 at_G1909 him._G0846

55: He being_G5225 however_G1161 full_G4134 of [the] Spirit_G4151 Holy,_G0040 having looked intently_G0816 into_G1519 -_G3588 heaven,_G3772 saw_G3708 [the] glory_G1391 of God_G2316 and_G2532 Jesus_G2424 standing_G2476 at_G1537 the right hand_G1188 -_G3588 of God,_G2316

56: and_G2532 he said,_G2036 Behold,_G2400 I see_G2334 the_G3588 heavens_G3772 having been opened,_G1272 and_G2532 the_G3588 Son_G5207 -_G3588 of Man_G0444 at_G1537 the right [hand]_G1188 standing_G2476 -_G3588 of God._G2316

57: Having cried out_G2896 then_G1161 in a voice_G5456 loud,_G3173 they held_G4912 the_G3588 ears_G3775 of them_G0846 and_G2532 rushed_G3729 with one accord_G3661 upon_G1909 him,_G0846

58: and_G2532 having cast [him]_G1544 out of_G1854 the_G3588 city,_G4172 they began to stone [him]._G3036 And_G2532 the_G3588 witnesses_G3144 laid aside_G0659 the_G3588 garments_G2440 of them_G0846 at_G3844 the_G3588 feet_G4228 of a young man_G3494 named_G2564 Saul._G4569

59: And [as]_G2532 they were stoning_G3036 -_G3588 Stephen,_G4736 he was calling out_G1941 and_G2532 saying,_G3004 Lord_G2962 Jesus,_G2424 receive_G1209 the_G3588 spirit_G4151 of me._G1473

60: Having fallen_G5087 then_G1161 on [his]_G3588 knees,_G1119 he cried_G2896 in a voice_G5456 loud,_G3173 Lord,_G2962 not_G3361 place_G2476 to them_G0846 this_G3778 -_G3588 sin._G0266 And_G2532 this_G3778 having said,_G2036 he fell asleep._G2837
