Exodus 2:11-25
11And it came to pass in those daysH3117, when MosesH4872 was grownH1431, that he went outH3318 unto his brethrenH251, and lookedH7200 on their burdensH5450: and he spiedH7200 an EgyptianH376H4713 smitingH5221 an HebrewH5680, one of his brethrenH251. 12And he lookedH6437 this wayH3541 and that wayH3541, and when he sawH7200 that there was no manH376, he slewH5221 the EgyptianH4713, and hidH2934 him in the sandH2344. 13And when he went outH3318 the secondH8145 dayH3117, behold, twoH8147 menH582 of the HebrewsH5680 stroveH5327 together: and he saidH559 to him that did the wrongH7563, Wherefore smitestH5221 thou thy fellowH7453? 14And he saidH559, Who madeH7760 theeH376 a princeH8269 and a judgeH8199 over us? intendestH559 thou to killH2026 me, as thou killedstH2026 the EgyptianH4713? And MosesH4872 fearedH3372, and saidH559, SurelyH403 this thingH1697 is knownH3045.1 15Now when PharaohH6547 heardH8085 this thingH1697, he soughtH1245 to slayH2026 MosesH4872. But MosesH4872 fledH1272 from the faceH6440 of PharaohH6547, and dweltH3427 in the landH776 of MidianH4080: and he sat downH3427 by a wellH875. 16Now the priestH3548 of MidianH4080 had sevenH7651 daughtersH1323: and they cameH935 and drewH1802 water, and filledH4390 the troughsH7298 to waterH8248 their father’sH1 flockH6629.2 17And the shepherdsH7462 cameH935 and drove them awayH1644: but MosesH4872 stood upH6965 and helpedH3467 them, and wateredH8248 their flockH6629. 18And when they cameH935 to ReuelH7467 their fatherH1, he saidH559, HowH4069 is it that ye are comeH935 so soonH4116 to dayH3117?3 19And they saidH559, An EgyptianH376H4713 deliveredH5337 us out of the handH3027 of the shepherdsH7462, and also drewH1802 water enoughH1802 for us, and wateredH8248 the flockH6629. 20And he saidH559 unto his daughtersH1323, And where is he? why is it that ye have leftH5800 the manH376? callH7121 him, that he may eatH398 breadH3899. 21And MosesH4872 was contentH2974 to dwellH3427 with the manH376: and he gaveH5414 MosesH4872 ZipporahH6855 his daughterH1323. 22And she bareH3205 him a sonH1121, and he calledH7121 his nameH8034 GershomH1647: for he saidH559, I have been a strangerH1616 in a strangeH5237 landH776.4
23And it came to pass in processH7227H1992 of timeH3117, that the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 diedH4191: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 sighedH584 by reason ofH4480 the bondageH5656, and they criedH2199, and their cryH7775 came upH5927 unto GodH430 by reason of the bondageH5656. 24And GodH430 heardH8085 their groaningH5009, and GodH430 rememberedH2142 his covenantH1285 with AbrahamH85, with IsaacH3327, and with JacobH3290. 25And GodH430 lookedH7200 upon the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and GodH430 had respectH3045 unto them.5
