Acts 7:20-29

20At this time 1Moses was born; and he was beautiful to God. He was nurtured for three months in his father’s home. 21And after he had been put outside, 2Pharaoh’s daughter 3took him away and nurtured him as her own son. 22Moses was educated in all 4the wisdom of the Egyptians, and he was proficient in 5speaking and action. 23But when he was approaching the age of forty, 6it entered his 7mind to visit his countrymen, the sons of Israel. 24And when he saw one of them being treated unjustly, he defended and took vengeance for the oppressed man by fatally striking the Egyptian. 25And he thought that his brothers understood that God was granting them 8deliverance 9through him; but they did not understand. 2610And on the following day he appeared to them as they were fighting each other, and he tried to reconcile them to peace, by saying, ‘Men, you are brothers, why are you injuring each other?’ 27But the one who was injuring his neighbor pushed him away, saying, ‘11Who made you a ruler and judge over us? 2812You do not intend to kill me as you killed the Egyptian yesterday, do you?’ 29At this remark, 13Moses fled and became a stranger in the land of 14Midian, where he 15fathered two sons.
