Acts 7:20-29
20It was at thisG3739 timeG2540 that 1MosesG3475 was bornG1080; and he was lovelyG791 2in the sightG3588 of GodG2316, and he was nurturedG397 threeG5140 monthsG3376 in his father’sG3962 homeG3624. 21And after he had been setG1620 outsideG1620, 3Pharaoh’sG5328 daughterG2364 4tookG337 him awayG337 and nurturedG397 him as her ownG1438 sonG5207. 22MosesG3475 was educatedG3811 in allG3956 5the learningG4678 of the EgyptiansG124, and he was a manG1415 of powerG1415 in wordsG3056 and deedsG2041. 23But whenG5613 he was approachingG4137 the ageG5550 of fortyG5066, 6it enteredG305 his 7mindG2588 to visitG1980 his brethrenG80, the sonsG5207 of IsraelG2274. 24And when he sawG3708 oneG5100 of them being treatedG91 unjustlyG91, he defendedG292 him and tookG4160 vengeanceG1557 for the oppressedG2669 by strikingG3960 downG3960 the EgyptianG124. 25And he supposedG3543 that his brethrenG80 understoodG4920 that GodG2316 was grantingG1325 them 8deliveranceG4991 9throughG1223 him, but they did not understandG4920. 2610On the followingG1897 dayG2250 he appearedG3708 to them as they were fightingG3164 togetherG3164, and he tried to reconcileG4871 them in peaceG1515, sayingG3004, ‘MenG435, you are brethrenG80, whyG2443G5101 do you injureG91 oneG240 anotherG240?’ 27But the one who was injuringG91 his neighborG4139 pushedG683 him awayG683, sayingG3004, ‘11WhoG5101 madeG2525 you a rulerG758 and judgeG1348 overG1909 us? 2812You do not meanG2309 to killG337 me as you killedG337 the EgyptianG124 yesterdayG2189, do you?’ 29At thisG3778 remarkG3056, 13MosesG3475 fledG5343 and becameG1096 an alienG3941 in the landG1093 of 14MidianG3099, whereG3757 he 15becameG1080 the fatherG1080 of twoG1417 sonsG5207.
