Acts 7:39-43
English Standard Version
39 Our fathers refused to obey him, but thrust him aside, and (A)in their hearts they turned to Egypt, 40 saying to Aaron, (B)‘Make for us gods who will go before us. As for this Moses who led us out from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.’ 41 And (C)they made a calf in those days, and offered a sacrifice to the idol and (D)were rejoicing in (E)the works of their hands. 42 But (F)God turned away and (G)gave them over to worship (H)the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the prophets:
(I)“‘Did you bring to me slain beasts and sacrifices,
(J)during the forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
43 You took up the tent of (K)Moloch
and the star of your god Rephan,
the images that you made to worship;
and I will send you into exile beyond Babylon.’
