1Then the high priest asked Stephen, "Are these charges true?"
“Then said the high priest. Are these things so?”
“then said the high priest, are these things so?”
“the high priest said, are these things so?”
“and the high priest said, Are these things so?”
“then said the high priest are these things so?”
2And Stephen declared: "Brothers and fathers, listen to me! The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham while he was still in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,
“And he said, men, brethren, and fathers, hearken. The God of glory appeared unto our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia before he dwelt in Haran.”

“and said unto him, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall show thee.”
“and said unto him, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall show thee.”
“and Said to him go out from your land and from your kindred and go into the land that I will show you.”
“and said unto him, Get thee out of thy country and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall show thee.”
4So Abraham left the land of the Chaldeans and settled in Haran. After his father died, God brought him out of that place and into this land where you are now living.
“Then he came out of the land of the Chaldeans and dwelt in Haran. And from there, when his father was dead, he moved him to this land in which you now dwell.”
“Then came he out of the land of the Chaldeans and dwelt in Haran. And from thence when his father was dead he removed him into this land wherein ye now dwell.”
“Then came he out of the land of the Chaldeans, and dwelt in Haran. And from thence, when his father was dead, he removed him into this land wherein ye now dwell.'".”
“Then came he out of the land of the Chaldeans, and dwelt in Charon. And from thence, when his father was dead, he removed him into this land wherein ye now dwell.”
“Then came he out of the land of the Chaldeans. And dwelt in Canaan. And from thence, when his father was dead. He removed him into this land. Where in ye now dwell?”

5He gave him no inheritance here, not even a foot of ground. But God promised to give possession of the land to Abraham and his descendants, even though he did not yet have a child.
“He gave him none inheritance in it. No, not so much as to sit his foot on. Yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession and to his seed after him when as yet he had no child.”
“And he gave him none inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on. Yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when as yet he had no child.”
“Yet he gave him no inheritance in it Not even a foot's length but promised to give it to him as a possession and to his offspring after him though He had no child”
“And God gave him no inheritance in the land, not even enough to set his foot on. But even when Abraham had no child, he promised to give it to him for possession and to his descendants after him.”
“and he gave him none inheritance in it. No, not so much as to set his foot on and he promised that he would give it to him in possession. And to his seed after him when as yet he had no child.”
6God told him that his descendants would be foreigners in a strange land, and that they would be enslaved and mistreated four hundred years.
“And God spoke on this wise. That his seeds should sojourn. In a strange land. And that they should bring them into bondage. And entreat them evil. 400 years.”
“God spoke in this way that his descendants would dwell in a foreign land and they would bring them into bondage and oppress them 400 years.”

7'But I will punish the nation that enslaves them,' God said, 'and afterward they will come forth and worship Me in this place.'
“But I will judge the nation that they serve said God and after that they shall come out and worship me in this place”
“And the nation to whom they should be in bondage. Will I judge? Said God. And after that shall they come forth. And serve me in this place.”
“And the nations to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge saith God. And after that shall they come forth and serve me in this place.”
“And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God. And after that, they shall come forth and serve me in this place.”
“And a nation to whom they will be in bondage I will judge, speaking of Egypt, said God. And after that, they shall come out and serve me in this place.”
8Then God gave Abraham the covenant of circumcision, and Abraham became the father of Isaac and circumcised him on the eighth day. And Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob of the twelve patriarchs.
“And he gave him the covenant of circumcision so that Abraham begat Isaac and circumcised him the eighth day. And Isaac begat Jacob and Jacob begat the 12 patriarchs”
9Because the patriarchs were jealous of Joseph, they sold him as a slave into Egypt. But God was with him

“delivered him out of all of his troubles, gave him favor and wisdom in the presence of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and made him governor over Egypt and all his house.”
11Then famine and great suffering swept across Egypt and Canaan, and our fathers could not find food.

13On their second visit, Joseph revealed his identity to his brothers, and his family became known to Pharaoh.
“And at the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren. And Joseph's kindred was made known unto Pharaoh”
“On the second visit, Joseph made himself known to his brothers and Joseph's family was disclosed to Pharaoh”
“And the second time, Joseph was made known to his brothers and Joseph's family became known to the Pharaoh.”

“Then Joseph sent and called his father Jacob and all his relatives to him, 75 people.”
“and Joseph sent and summoned Jacob his father and all his kindred 75 persons in all”
15So Jacob went down to Egypt, where he and our fathers died.
“and Jacob went down into Egypt and he died. He and our fathers”
16Their bones were carried back to Shechem and placed in the tomb that Abraham had bought from the sons of Hamor at Shechem for a price he paid in silver.

“till another king arose who did not know Joseph.”
“till another king arose which knew not Joseph.”
“until there arose another king over Egypt who knew nothing about Joseph.”

19He exploited our people and oppressed our fathers, forcing them to abandon their infants so they would die.
“The same dealt subtly with our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out their young children to the end that they might not live.”
