Acts 7:17-29

17“But as the 1timeG5550 of the promiseG1860 whichG3739 GodG2316 had assuredG3670 to AbrahamG11 was approachingG1448, 2the peopleG2992 increasedG837 and multipliedG4129 in EgyptG125, 18untilG891 3anotherG2087 kingG935 aroseG450 overG1909 EgyptG125 whoG3739 did not knowG3609 JosephG2501. 19It was he who 4shrewdlyG2686 tookG2686 advantageG2686 ofG2686 our nationG1085 and mistreatedG2559 our fathersG3962 in order that they would 5abandonG4160G1570 their infantsG1025 in the Nile, soG1519 thatG1519 they would not surviveG2225. 20At thisG3739 timeG2540 6MosesG3475 was bornG1080; and he was beautifulG791 to GodG2316. He was nurturedG397 for threeG5140 monthsG3376 in his father’sG3962 homeG3624. 21And after he had been putG1620 outsideG1620, 7Pharaoh’sG5328 daughterG2364 8tookG337 him awayG337 and nurturedG397 him as her ownG1438 sonG5207. 22MosesG3475 was educatedG3811 in allG3956 9the wisdomG4678 of the EgyptiansG124, and he was proficientG1415 in 10speakingG3056 and actionG2041. 23But whenG5613 he was approachingG4137 the ageG5550 of fortyG5066, 11it enteredG305 his 12mindG2588 to visitG1980 his countrymenG80, the sonsG5207 of IsraelG2474. 24And when he sawG3708 oneG5100 of them being treatedG91 unjustlyG91, he defendedG292 and tookG4160 vengeanceG1557 for the oppressedG2669 manG2669 by fatally strikingG3960 the EgyptianG124. 25And he thoughtG3543 that his brothersG80 understoodG4920 that GodG2316 was grantingG1325 them 13deliveranceG4991 14throughG1223 him; but they did not understandG4920. 2615And on the followingG1897 dayG2250 he appearedG3708 to them as they were fightingG3164 eachG3164 otherG3164, and he tried to reconcileG4871 them to peaceG1515, by sayingG3004, ‘MenG435, you are brothersG80, whyG2443G5101 are you injuringG91 eachG240 otherG240?’ 27But the one who was injuringG91 his neighborG4139 pushedG683 him awayG683, sayingG3004, ‘16WhoG5101 madeG2525 you a rulerG758 and judgeG1348 overG1909 us? 2817You do not intendG2309 to killG337 me as you killedG337 the EgyptianG124 yesterdayG2189, do you?’ 29At thisG3778 remarkG3056, 18MosesG3475 fledG5343 and becameG1096 a strangerG3941 in the landG1093 of 19MidianG3099, whereG3757 he 20fatheredG1080 twoG1417 sonsG5207.
