Acts 7:38-43
New King James Version
38 (A)“This is he who was in the [a]congregation in the wilderness with (B)the Angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, (C)the one who received the living (D)oracles[b] to give to us, 39 whom our fathers (E)would not obey, but rejected. And in their hearts they turned back to Egypt, 40 (F)saying to Aaron, ‘Make us gods to go before us; as for this Moses who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.’ 41 (G)And they made a calf in those days, offered sacrifices to the idol, and (H)rejoiced in the works of their own hands. 42 Then (I)God turned and gave them up to worship (J)the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the Prophets:
(K)‘Did you offer Me slaughtered animals and sacrifices during forty years in the wilderness,
O house of Israel?
43 You also took up the tabernacle of Moloch,
And the star of your god Remphan,
Images which you made to worship;
And (L)I will carry you away beyond Babylon.’
