Acts 7:41

← Acts 7:40	Acts 7:41 (KJV)	Acts 7:42 →
Saying unto Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for [as for] this Moses, which brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.	And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.	Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have ye offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices [by the space of] forty years in the wilderness?
