5 And he gave not to him heritage in it (or But he did not give him any inheritance in it), neither a pace of a foot, but he promised to give him it into possession, and to his seed after him, when he had not a son.
6 And God spake to him, That his seed shall be a comeling or a guest in an alien land, and they shall make them subject to servage, and shall evil treat them, (for) four hundred years and thirty or (for) four hundred years; (And God said to him, That his descendants shall be newcomers in a foreign or a strange land, and they shall make them subject to servitude, or to slavery, and shall treat them wickedly, for four hundred years;)
7 and I shall judge the folk to whom they shall serve, (or and I shall judge the nation for whom they shall be slaves), saith the Lord. And after these things they shall go out, and they shall serve to me in this place.
8 And he gave to him the testament of circumcision; and so he engendered Isaac, and circumcised him in the eighth day. And Isaac engendered Jacob, and Jacob engendered the twelve patriarchs. (And he gave to him the covenant of circumcision; and so he begat Isaac, and circumcised him on the eighth day. And Isaac begat Jacob, and Jacob begat the twelve patriarchs.)
9 And the patriarchs had envy to Joseph, and sold him into Egypt. And God was with him,
10 and delivered him (out) of all his tribulations, and gave him grace and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh, king of Egypt. And he ordained him sovereign on Egypt, and on all his house.
11 And hunger came into all Egypt, and Canaan, and great tribulation; and our fathers found not meat (or and our fathers could not find any food).
12 But when Jacob had heard, that wheat was in Egypt, he sent our fathers (on their) first (visit).
13 And in the second time Joseph was known of his brethren (or And on the second visit Joseph made himself known to his brothers), and his kin was made known to Pharaoh.
14 And Joseph sent, and called (for) Jacob, his father, and all his kindred, seventy and five men or souls.
15 And Jacob came down into Egypt, and was dead, he and our fathers;
16 and they were translated into Sychem, and were laid in the sepulchre, that Abraham bought by price of silver of the sons of Emmor, the son of Sychem. (and they were taken to Shechem, and were laid in the tomb, that Abraham bought with silver from the sons of Hamor, the father of Shechem.)
17 And when the time of (the) promise came nigh, which God had acknowledged to Abraham, the people waxed (or grew), and multiplied in Egypt,
18 till another king (a)rose in Egypt, which knew not Joseph.
19 This (man) beguiled our kin, and tormented our fathers, that they should put away or they should put out their young children, for they should not live.
20 In the same time Moses was born, and he was loved of God or he was accepted of God, (or At that time Moses was born, and he was loved by God); and he was nourished (or was nursed) three months in the house of his father.
21 And when he was put out in the river, the daughter of Pharaoh took him up, and nourished him into her son (or and raised him as her own son).
22 And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of (the) Egyptians, and he was mighty in his words and works.
23 But when the time of forty years was full-filled to him, it rose up into his heart, that he should visit his brethren, the sons of Israel.
24 And when he saw a man suffering wrong, he (a)venged him, and did vengeance for him that suffered the wrong, and killed the Egyptian.
25 For he guessed that his brethren should understand, that God should give to them health (or deliverance) by the hand of him; but they understood not.
26 For in the day (pur)suing he appeared to them (who were) chiding (or For on the following day he appeared to two men who were fighting), and he accorded them or he reconciled them in peace, and said, Men, ye be brethren; why annoy (or harm) ye each other?
27 But he that did the wrong to his neighbour, putted him away, and said, Who ordained thee prince and doomsman on us? (But he who did the wrong to his neighbour, pushed him away, and said, Who made thee lord and judge over us?)
28 Whether thou wilt slay me, as yesterday thou killedest the Egyptian?
29 And in this word Moses flew, and was made a comeling in the land of Madian (or and was made a newcomer in the land of Midian), where he begat two sons.
30 And when he had ful filled forty years, an angel appeared to him in (the) fire of (the) flame of a bush, in desert of the mount of Sina (or in the desert of Mount Sinai).
31 And Moses saw, and wondered on the sight. And when he nighed to behold, the voice of the Lord was made to him, (And Moses saw, and wondered at the sight. And when he approached to look at it, the voice of the Lord was made to him,)
32 and said, I am (the) God of your fathers, (the) God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and God of Jacob. Moses was made trembling, and durst (or dared) not behold.
33 But God said to him, Do off the shoes of thy feet, for the place in which thou standest is holy earth (or for the place where thou standest is holy ground).
34 I seeing saw the tormenting or the affliction of my people that is in Egypt, and I heard the mourning of them, and came down to deliver them. And now come thou, and I shall send thee into Egypt.
35 This Moses whom they denied, saying, Who ordained thee prince and doomsman on us? God sent this prince and again-buyer, with the hand of the angel, that appeared to him in the bush. (This Moses whom they denied, saying, Who ordained thee lord and judge over us? God sent this leader and this redeemer, by the hand of the angel, who appeared to him in the bush.)
36 This Moses led them out, and did wonders and signs (or miracles) in the land of Egypt, and in the Red Sea (or and in the Sea of Reeds), and in (the) desert (for) forty years.
37 This is Moses, that said to the sons of Israel, God shall raise to you a prophet of your brethren, and as me ye shall hear him.
38 This it is, that was in the church in wilderness, with the angel that spake to him in the mount of Sina, and with our fathers; which took words of life to give to us. (This is he, who was with the congregation in the wilderness, with the angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers; who received the Words of Life to give to us.)
39 To whom our fathers would not obey, but putted him away, and were turned away in their hearts into Egypt (or and their hearts were turned back to Egypt),
40 saying to Aaron, Make thou to us gods, that shall go before us; for to this Moses that led us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is done to him.
41 And they made a calf in those days, and offered a sacrifice to the maumet, or to the simulacrum, (or and offered a sacrifice to the idol); and they were glad in the works of their hands.
42 And God turned, and betook them to serve to the knighthood (or to the host) of heaven, (or And God turned away from them, and delivered them over to serve, or to worship, the stars of the heavens), as it is written in the book of the prophets, Whether ye, house of Israel, offered to me slain sacrifices, either sacrifices, (for) forty years in (the) desert?
43 And ye have taken the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures that ye have made to worship them; and I shall translate you into Babylon (or and so I shall lead you to Babylon).
44 The tabernacle of witnessing was with our fathers in desert, (or The Tabernacle, or the Tent, of the Testimony was with our fathers in the desert), as God assigned to them, and spake to Moses, that he should make it after the form that he saw.
45 Which also our fathers took with Jesus, (or he) that was (called) Joshua, and brought into the possession of (the) heathen men, which God putted away from the face of our fathers, till into the days of David,
46 that found grace with God, and asked that he should find a tabernacle to (the) God of Jacob. (who found grace with God, and asked if he could make a Tabernacle for the God of Jacob.)
47 But Solomon builded the house to him. Solomon forsooth built an house to him. (But it was Solomon who built a House, or the Temple, for him.)
48 But the high God dwelleth not in things made by hand, as he saith by the prophet,
49 Heaven is a seat to me (or Heaven is my throne), and the earth is the stool of my feet; what house shall ye build to me, saith the Lord, either what place is of my resting? or which is the place of my resting?
50 Whether mine hand made not all these things?
51 With hard noll, and uncircumcised hearts and ears, ye withstand (for)evermore the Holy Ghost; and as your fathers, so ye. (With a stiff neck, and uncircumcised hearts and ears, ye always stand against the Holy Spirit; and so ye be just like your fathers.)
52 Whom of the prophets have not your fathers pursued (or Whom of the prophets have your fathers not persecuted), and have slain them that before-told of the coming of the rightful man or of the just man, whose traitors and manslayers ye were now?
53 Which took the law in ordinance of angels, and have not kept it. (Who received the Law through the facility of angels, but have not obeyed it.)
54 And they heard these things, and were diversely tormented in their hearts, and they grinded, or gnashed, with (their) teeth on (or at) him.
55 But when Stephen was full of the Holy Ghost, he beheld into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right half of the virtue of God. (But when Stephen was full of the Holy Spirit, he beheld into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right side, or at the right hand, of the power of God.)
