Acts 7:20-29

20At which seasonG2540 MosesG3475 wasG1510 bornG1080, and wasG1510 exceeding fair; and he wasG1510 nourished threeG5140 monthsG3376 in his father’sG3962 houseG3624: 21and when he was cast out, Pharaoh’s daughterG2364 took him up, and nourished him for her ownG1438 sonG5207. 22And MosesG3475 wasG1510 instructed in all the wisdomG4678 of the EgyptiansG124; and he wasG1510 mightyG1415 in his wordsG3056 and worksG2041. 23But whenG5613 he was well-nigh fortyG5063 years old, it cameG305 into his heartG2588 to visitG1980 his brethren the children of IsraelG2474. 24And seeingG3708 oneG5100 of them suffer wrongG91, he defended him, and avenged him that was oppressed, smiting the EgyptianG124: 25and he supposed that his brethren understoodG4920 that GodG2316 by his handG5495 was givingG1325 them deliverance; but they understoodG4920 not. 26And the dayG2250 following he appeared unto them as they strove, and would have set them at oneG240 again, sayingG3004, Sirs, ye areG1510 brethren; why do ye wrongG91 oneG240 to another? 27But he that did his neighbor wrongG91 thrust him awayG683, sayingG3004, Who made thee a rulerG758 and a judgeG1348 over us? 28Wouldest thou kill me, as thou killedst the EgyptianG124 yesterdayG5504? 29And MosesG3475 fledG5343 at this sayingG3056, and becameG1096 a sojourner in the landG1093 of Midian, whereG3757 he begat twoG1417 sonsG5207.
