23But whenG5613 he was approachingG4137 the ageG5550 of fortyG5066, 1it enteredG305 his 2mindG2588 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 3deliveranceG4991 4throughG1223 him; but they did not understandG4920. 265And 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, ‘6WhoG5101 madeG2525 you a rulerG758 and judgeG1348 overG1909 us? 287You do not intendG2309 to killG337 me as you killedG337 the EgyptianG124 yesterdayG2189, do you?’ 29At thisG3778 remarkG3056, 8MosesG3475 fledG5343 and becameG1096 a strangerG3941 in the landG1093 of 9MidianG3099, whereG3757 he 10fatheredG1080 twoG1417 sonsG5207.
30“After fortyG5065 yearsG2094 had passedG4137, 11an angelG32 appearedG3708 to him in the wildernessG2048 of MountG3735 SinaiG4614, in the flameG5395 of a burningG4442 thornG942 bushG942.
