The God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has given glory to his servant Jesus; whom you gave up, turning your backs on him, when Pilate had made the decision to let him go free.

And he made with him the agreement of which circumcision was the sign. And so Abraham had a son, Isaac, and gave him circumcision on the eighth day; and Isaac had a son, Jacob, and Jacob was the father of the twelve heads of the families of Israel.

But Jacob, hearing that there was grain in Egypt, sent out our fathers the first time.

Then Joseph sent for Jacob his father and all his family, seventy-five persons.

And Jacob went down to Egypt, and came to his end there, and so did our fathers;

I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob. And Moses, shaking with fear, kept his eyes from looking at it.

Who was pleasing to God; and he had a desire to make a holy tent for the God of Jacob.
