Acts 7
1 The cohen hagadol said, "Are these things so?"
ειπεν δε ο αρχιερευσ ει αρα ταυτα ουτωσ εχει
2 He said, "Brothers and fathers, listen. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,
ο δε εφη ανδρεσ αδελφοι και πατερεσ ακουσατε ο θεοσ τησ δοξησ ωφθη τω πατρι ημων αβρααμ οντι εν τη μεσοποταμια πριν η κατοικησαι αυτον εν χαρραν
3 and said to him, 'Go out from your land and from your relatives, and come into a land which I will show you.'
και ειπεν προσ αυτον εξελθε εκ τησ γησ σου και εκ τησ συγγενειασ σου και δευρο εισ γην ην αν σοι δειξω
4 Then he came out of the land of the Kasdim, and lived in Haran. From there, after his father died, he moved him into this land, where you are now living.
τοτε εξελθων εκ γησ χαλδαιων κατωκησεν εν χαρραν κακειθεν μετα το αποθανειν τον πατερα αυτου μετωκισεν αυτον εισ την γην ταυτην εισ ην υμεισ νυν κατοικειτε
5 He gave him no inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on. He promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his descendants after him, when he still had no child.
και ουκ εδωκεν αυτω κληρονομιαν εν αυτη ουδε βημα ποδοσ και επηγγειλατο δουναι αυτω εισ κατασχεσιν αυτην και τω σπερματι αυτου μετ αυτον ουκ οντοσ αυτω τεκνου
6 But God spoke in this way, 'His descendants will live as strangers in a foreign land, and that they will be slaves and mistreated, for four hundred years.
ελαλησεν δε ουτωσ ο θεοσ οτι εσται το σπερμα αυτου παροικον εν γη αλλοτρια και δουλωσουσιν αυτο και κακωσουσιν ετη τετρακοσια
7 But I will judge the nation to which they will be in bondage,' said God, 'and after that will they come out, and serve me in this place.'
και το εθνοσ ω εαν δουλευσωσιν κρινω εγω ειπεν ο θεοσ και μετα ταυτα εξελευσονται και λατρευσουσιν μοι εν τω τοπω τουτω
8 He gave him the covenant of circumcision. So Abraham became the father of Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day. Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob became the father of the twelve patriarchs.
και εδωκεν αυτω διαθηκην περιτομησ και ουτωσ εγεννησεν τον ισαακ και περιετεμεν αυτον τη ημερα τη ογδοη και ο ισαακ τον ιακωβ και ο ιακωβ τουσ δωδεκα πατριαρχασ
9 "The patriarchs, moved with jealousy against Joseph, sold him into Egypt; and God was with him,
και οι πατριαρχαι ζηλωσαντεσ τον ιωσηφ απεδοντο εισ αιγυπτον και ην ο θεοσ μετ αυτου
10 and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. He made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
και εξειλετο αυτον εκ πασων των θλιψεων αυτου και εδωκεν αυτω χαριν και σοφιαν εναντιον φαραω βασιλεωσ αιγυπτου και κατεστησεν αυτον ηγουμενον επ αιγυπτον και ολον τον οικον αυτου
11 Now a famine came over all Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction, and our fathers found no food.
ηλθεν δε λιμοσ εφ ολην την γην αιγυπτου και χανααν και θλιψισ μεγαλη και ουχ ευρισκον χορτασματα οι πατερεσ ημων
12 But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers the first time.
ακουσασ δε ιακωβ οντα σιτα εν αιγυπτω εξαπεστειλεν τουσ πατερασ ημων πρωτον
13 On the second time Joseph was made known to his brothers, and Joseph's family became known to Pharaoh.
και εν τω δευτερω ανεγνωρισθη ιωσηφ τοισ αδελφοισ αυτου και φανερον εγενετο τω φαραω το γενοσ του ιωσηφ
14 Then Joseph sent, and summoned Jacob, his father, and all his relatives, seventy-five souls.
αποστειλασ δε ιωσηφ μετεκαλεσατο τον πατερα αυτου ιακωβ και πασαν την συγγενειαν εν ψυχαισ εβδομηκοντα πεντε
15 Jacob went down into Egypt, and he died, himself and our fathers,
κατεβη δε ιακωβ εισ αιγυπτον και ετελευτησεν αυτοσ και οι πατερεσ ημων
16 and they were brought back to Shechem, and placed in the tomb that Abraham bought for a price in silver from the children of Hamor in Shechem.
και μετετεθησαν εισ συχεμ και ετεθησαν εν τω μνηματι ο ωνησατο αβρααμ τιμησ αργυριου παρα των υιων εμμορ του συχεμ
17 "But as the time of the promise came close which God had made to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,
καθωσ δε ηγγιζεν ο χρονοσ τησ επαγγελιασ ησ ωμοσεν ο θεοσ τω αβρααμ ηυξησεν ο λαοσ και επληθυνθη εν αιγυπτω
18 until 'there arose a different king over Egypt, who did not know Joseph.'
αχρι ου ανεστη βασιλευσ ετεροσ οσ ουκ ηδει τον ιωσηφ
19 The same took advantage of our race, and mistreated our fathers, and forced them to throw out their babies, so that they would not stay alive.
ουτοσ κατασοφισαμενοσ το γενοσ ημων εκακωσεν τουσ πατερασ ημων του ποιειν εκθετα τα βρεφη αυτων εισ το μη ζωογονεισθαι
20 At that time Moses was born, and was exceedingly handsome. He was nourished three months in his father's house.
εν ω καιρω εγεννηθη μωσησ και ην αστειοσ τω θεω οσ ανετραφη μηνασ τρεισ εν τω οικω του πατροσ
21 When he was thrown out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and reared him as her own son.
εκτεθεντα δε αυτον ανειλετο η θυγατηρ φαραω και ανεθρεψατο αυτον εαυτη εισ υιον
22 Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians. He was mighty in his words and works.
και επαιδευθη μωσησ παση σοφια αιγυπτιων ην δε δυνατοσ εν λογοισ και εργοισ
23 But when he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brothers, the children of Israel.
ωσ δε επληρουτο αυτω τεσσαρακονταετησ χρονοσ ανεβη επι την καρδιαν αυτου επισκεψασθαι τουσ αδελφουσ αυτου τουσ υιουσ ισραηλ
24 Seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him, and avenged him who was oppressed, striking the Egyptian.
και ιδων τινα αδικουμενον ημυνατο και εποιησεν εκδικησιν τω καταπονουμενω παταξασ τον αιγυπτιον
25 He supposed that his brothers understood that God, by his hand, was giving them deliverance; but they did not understand.
ενομιζεν δε συνιεναι τουσ αδελφουσ αυτου οτι ο θεοσ δια χειροσ αυτου διδωσιν αυτοισ σωτηριαν οι δε ου συνηκαν
26 "The day following, he appeared to them as they fought, and urged them to be at peace again, saying, 'Men, you are brothers. Why do you wrong one another?'
τη τε επιουση ημερα ωφθη αυτοισ μαχομενοισ και συνηλασεν αυτουσ εισ ειρηνην ειπων ανδρεσ αδελφοι εστε υμεισ ινα τι αδικειτε αλληλουσ
27 But he who did his neighbor wrong pushed him away, saying, 'Who made you a ruler and a judge over us?
ο δε αδικων τον πλησιον απωσατο αυτον ειπων τισ σε κατεστησεν αρχοντα και δικαστην εφ ημασ
28 Do you want to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?'
μη ανελειν με συ θελεισ ον τροπον ανειλεσ χθεσ τον αιγυπτιον
29 Moses fled at this saying, and became a stranger in the land of Midian, where he became the father of two sons.
εφυγεν δε μωσησ εν τω λογω τουτω και εγενετο παροικοσ εν γη μαδιαμ ου εγεννησεν υιουσ δυο
30 "When forty years were fulfilled, an angel appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in a flame of fire in a bush.
και πληρωθεντων ετων τεσσαρακοντα ωφθη αυτω εν τη ερημω του ορουσ σινα αγγελοσ κυριου εν φλογι πυροσ βατου
31 When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight. As he came close to see, a voice of the Lord came,
ο δε μωσησ ιδων εθαυμαζεν το οραμα προσερχομενου δε αυτου κατανοησαι εγενετο φωνη κυριου προσ αυτον
32 'I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob.' Moses trembled, and dared not look.
εγω ο θεοσ των πατερων σου ο θεοσ αβρααμ και ο θεοσ ισαακ και ο θεοσ ιακωβ εντρομοσ δε γενομενοσ μωσησ ουκ ετολμα κατανοησαι
33 The Lord said to him, 'Take your sandals off of your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground.
ειπεν δε αυτω ο κυριοσ λυσον το υποδημα των ποδων σου ο γαρ τοποσ εν ω εστηκασ γη αγια εστιν
34 I have surely seen the affliction of my people that is in Egypt, and have heard their groaning. I have come down to deliver them. Now come, I will send you to Egypt.'
ιδων ειδον την κακωσιν του λαου μου του εν αιγυπτω και του στεναγμου αυτων ηκουσα και κατεβην εξελεσθαι αυτουσ και νυν δευρο αποστελω σε εισ αιγυπτον
35 "This Moses, whom they refused, saying, 'Who made you a ruler and a judge?'—God has sent him as both a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.
τουτον τον μωσην ον ηρνησαντο ειποντεσ τισ σε κατεστησεν αρχοντα και δικαστην τουτον ο θεοσ αρχοντα και λυτρωτην απεστειλεν εν χειρι αγγελου του οφθεντοσ αυτω εν τη βατω
36 This man led them out, having worked wonders and signs in Egypt, in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness for forty years.
ουτοσ εξηγαγεν αυτουσ ποιησασ τερατα και σημεια εν γη αιγυπτω και εν ερυθρα θαλασση και εν τη ερημω ετη τεσσαρακοντα
37 This is that Moses, who said to the children of Israel, 'God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brothers, like me.'
ουτοσ εστιν ο μωσησ ο ειπων τοισ υιοισ ισραηλ προφητην υμιν αναστησει κυριοσ ο θεοσ ημων εκ των αδελφων υμων ωσ εμε
38 This is he who was in the assembly in the wilderness with the angel that spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, who received words of life to give to us,
ουτοσ εστιν ο γενομενοσ εν τη εκκλησια εν τη ερημω μετα του αγγελου του λαλουντοσ αυτω εν τω ορει σινα και των πατερων ημων οσ εδεξατο λογον ζωντα δουναι ημιν
39 to whom our fathers would not be obedient, but rejected him, and turned back in their hearts to Egypt,
ω ουκ ηθελησαν υπηκοοι γενεσθαι οι πατερεσ ημων αλλ απωσαντο και εστραφησαν τη καρδια αυτων εισ αιγυπτον
40 saying to Aaron, 'Make us gods that will go before us, for as for this Moses, who led us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.'
ειποντεσ τω ααρων ποιησον ημιν θεουσ οι προπορευσονται ημων ο γαρ μωσησ ουτοσ οσ εξηγαγεν ημασ εκ γησ αιγυπτου ουκ οιδαμεν τι γεγονεν αυτω
41 They made a calf in those days, and brought a sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their hands.
και εμοσχοποιησαν εν ταισ ημεραισ εκειναισ και ανηγαγον θυσιαν τω ειδωλω και ευφραινοντο εν τοισ εργοισ των χειρων αυτων
42 But God turned, and gave them over to worship the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the prophets, 'Did you offer to me sacrifices and offerings forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
εστρεψεν δε ο θεοσ και παρεδωκεν αυτουσ λατρευειν τη στρατια του ουρανου καθωσ γεγραπται εν βιβλω των προφητων μη σφαγια και θυσιασ προσηνεγκατε μοι ετη τεσσαρακοντα εν τη ερημω οικοσ ισραηλ
43 You took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Rephan, the images that you made to worship them. Therefore I will exile you beyond Babylon.'
και ανελαβετε την σκηνην του μολοχ και το αστρον του θεου υμων ρεμφαν τουσ τυπουσ ουσ εποιησατε προσκυνειν αυτοισ και μετοικιω υμασ επεκεινα βαβυλωνοσ
44 "Our fathers had the tabernacle of the testimony in the wilderness, even as he who spoke to Moses commanded him to make it according to the pattern that he had seen;
η σκηνη του μαρτυριου ην τοισ πατρασιν ημων εν τη ερημω καθωσ διεταξατο ο λαλων τω μωση ποιησαι αυτην κατα τον τυπον ον εωρακει
45 which also our fathers, in their turn, brought in with Joshua when they entered into the possession of the nations, whom God drove out before the face of our fathers, to the days of David,
ην και εισηγαγον διαδεξαμενοι οι πατερεσ ημων μετα ιησου εν τη κατασχεσει των εθνων ων εξωσεν ο θεοσ απο προσωπου των πατερων ημων εωσ των ημερων δαυιδ
46 who found favor in the sight of God, and asked to find a habitation for the God of Jacob.
οσ ευρεν χαριν ενωπιον του θεου και ητησατο ευρειν σκηνωμα τω θεω ιακωβ
47 But Solomon built him a house.
σολομων δε ωκοδομησεν αυτω οικον
48 However, the Most High does not dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says,
αλλ ουχ ο υψιστοσ εν χειροποιητοισ ναοισ κατοικει καθωσ ο προφητησ λεγει
49 'Heaven is my throne, and the earth a footstool for my feet. What kind of house will you build me?' says the Lord; 'or what is the place of my rest?
ο ουρανοσ μοι θρονοσ η δε γη υποποδιον των ποδων μου ποιον οικον οικοδομησετε μοι λεγει κυριοσ η τισ τοποσ τησ καταπαυσεωσ μου
50 Did not my hand make all these things?'
ουχι η χειρ μου εποιησεν ταυτα παντα
51 "You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Ruach ha-Kodesh. As your fathers did, so you do.
σκληροτραχηλοι και απεριτμητοι τη καρδια και τοισ ωσιν υμεισ αει τω πνευματι τω αγιω αντιπιπτετε ωσ οι πατερεσ υμων και υμεισ
52 Which of the prophets did not your fathers persecute? They killed those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One, of whom you have now become betrayers and murderers.
τινα των προφητων ουκ εδιωξαν οι πατερεσ υμων και απεκτειναν τουσ προκαταγγειλαντασ περι τησ ελευσεωσ του δικαιου ου νυν υμεισ προδοται και φονεισ γεγενησθε
53 You received the Law as it was ordained by angels, and did not keep it."
οιτινεσ ελαβετε τον νομον εισ διαταγασ αγγελων και ουκ εφυλαξατε
54 Now when they heard these things, they were furious, and they ground their teeth at him.
ακουοντεσ δε ταυτα διεπριοντο ταισ καρδιαισ αυτων και εβρυχον τουσ οδοντασ επ αυτον
55 But he, being full of the Ruach ha-Kodesh, looked up steadfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Yeshua standing on the right hand of God.
υπαρχων δε πληρησ πνευματοσ αγιου ατενισασ εισ τον ουρανον ειδεν δοξαν θεου και ιησουν εστωτα εκ δεξιων του θεου
56 And he said, "Look, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God."
και ειπεν ιδου θεωρω τουσ ουρανουσ ανεωγμενουσ και τον υιον του ανθρωπου εκ δεξιων εστωτα του θεου
57 But they shouted out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and rushed at him with one accord.
κραξαντεσ δε φωνη μεγαλη συνεσχον τα ωτα αυτων και ωρμησαν ομοθυμαδον επ αυτον
58 They threw him out of the city, and stoned him. The witnesses placed their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul.
και εκβαλοντεσ εξω τησ πολεωσ ελιθοβολουν και οι μαρτυρεσ απεθεντο τα ιματια παρα τουσ ποδασ νεανιου καλουμενου σαυλου
59 They stoned Stephen as he called out, saying, "Lord Yeshua, receive my spirit."
και ελιθοβολουν τον στεφανον επικαλουμενον και λεγοντα κυριε ιησου δεξαι το πνευμα μου
60 He kneeled down, and shouted out, "Lord, do not hold this sin against them." When he had said this, he fell asleep.
θεισ δε τα γονατα εκραξεν φωνη μεγαλη κυριε μη στησησ αυτοισ την αμαρτιαν ταυτην και τουτο ειπων εκοιμηθη
