Deeds (Act) of Apostles 7:12-21

¹²But when Jacob had heard, that wheat was in Egypt, he sent our fathers first.

¹³And in the second time Joseph was known of his brethren, and his kin was made known to Pharaoh.

¹⁴And Joseph sent, and called Jacob, his father, and all his kindred, seventy and five men or souls.

¹⁵And Jacob came down into Egypt, and was dead, he and our fathers;

¹⁶and 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.

¹⁷And when the time of promise came nigh, which God had acknowl-edged to Abraham, the people waxed, and multiplied in Egypt,

¹⁸till another king rose in Egypt, which knew not Joseph.

¹⁹This beguiled our kin, and torment-ed our fathers, that they should put away or should put out their young children, for they should not live.

²⁰In the same time Moses was born, and he was loved or accepted of God; and he was nourished three months in the house of his father.

²¹And when he was put out in the flood, the daughter of Pharaoh took him up, and nourished him into her son.
