Acts 7:41 Context
39To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned backe againe into Egypt, 40Saying vnto Aaron, Make vs gods to goe before vs. For as for this Moses, which brought vs out of the land of Egypt, we wote not what is become of him. 41And they made a calfe in those dayes, and offered sacrifice vnto the idole, and reioyced in the workes of their owne hands. 42Then God turned, and gaue them vp to worship the hoste of heauen, as it is written in the booke of the Prophets, O ye house of Israel, haue ye offered to me slaine beasts, and sacrifices, by the space of fourty yeeres in the wildernesse? 43Yea, ye tooke vp the Tabernacle of Moloch, and the starre of your God Remphan, figures which ye made, to worship them: and I will carie you away beyond Babylon.
