Acts 7:35-42
English Standard Version

(L)He received (M)living (N)oracles to give to us. 39 Our fathers refused to obey him, but thrust him aside, and (O)in their hearts they turned to Egypt, 40 saying to Aaron, (P)‘Make for us gods who will go before us.

(W)“‘Did you bring to me slain beasts and sacrifices,
(X)during the forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
