kjv - Acts:7:20-43

kjv@Acts:7:20 @ In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished up in his father's house three months:

kjv@Acts:7:21 @ And when he was cast out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.

kjv@Acts:7:22 @ And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.

kjv@Acts:7:23 @ And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel.

kjv@Acts:7:24 @ And seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him, and avenged him that was oppressed, and smote the Egyptian:

kjv@Acts:7:25 @ For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not.

kjv@Acts:7:26 @ And the next day he shewed himself unto them as they strove, and would have set them at one again, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye wrong one to another?

kjv@Acts:7:27 @ But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?

kjv@Acts:7:28 @ Wilt thou kill me, as thou diddest the Egyptian yesterday?

kjv@Acts:7:29 @ Then fled Moses at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Madian, where he begat two sons.

kjv@Acts:7:30 @ And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sina an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.

kjv@Acts:7:31 @ When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold it, the voice of the Lord came unto him,

kjv@Acts:7:32 @ Saying, I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Then Moses trembled, and durst not behold.

kjv@Acts:7:33 @ Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground.

kjv@Acts:7:34 @ I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send thee into Egypt.

kjv@Acts:7:35 @ This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did God send to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel which appeared to him in the bush.

kjv@Acts:7:36 @ He brought them out, after that he had shewed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years.

kjv@Acts:7:37 @ This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear.

kjv@Acts:7:38 @ This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:

kjv@Acts:7:39 @ To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt,

kjv@Acts:7:40 @ Saying unto Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for as for this Moses, which brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.

kjv@Acts:7:41 @ And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.

kjv@Acts:7:42 @ Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have ye offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the wilderness?

kjv@Acts:7:43 @ Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.
