Acts 7:37-43
New International Version
37 “This is the Moses who told the Israelites, ‘God will raise up for you a prophet like me from your own people.’[a](A) 38 He was in the assembly in the wilderness, with the angel(B) who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our ancestors;(C) and he received living words(D) to pass on to us.(E)
39 “But our ancestors refused to obey him. Instead, they rejected him and in their hearts turned back to Egypt.(F) 40 They told Aaron, ‘Make us gods who will go before us. As for this fellow Moses who led us out of Egypt—we don’t know what has happened to him!’[b](G) 41 That was the time they made an idol in the form of a calf. They brought sacrifices to it and reveled in what their own hands had made.(H) 42 But God turned away from them(I) and gave them over to the worship of the sun, moon and stars.(J) This agrees with what is written in the book of the prophets:
Acts 7:37-43
King James Version
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.
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:
39 To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt,
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.
41 And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
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?
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.
