Acts 7:6-8
English Standard Version
6 And God spoke to this effect—that (A)his offspring would (B)be sojourners in a land belonging to others, who would enslave them and afflict them (C)four hundred years. 7 ‘But (D)I will judge the nation that they serve,’ said God, ‘and after that they shall come out (E)and worship me in this place.’ 8 And (F)he gave him the covenant of circumcision. And (G)so Abraham became the father of Isaac, and (H)circumcised him on the eighth day, and (I)Isaac became the father of Jacob, and (J)Jacob of the twelve patriarchs.
