Exodus 2:11-25

2:11

And it came to pass in those days
<03117>_,

when Moses
<04872>

was grown
<01431> (8799)_,

that he went out
<03318> (8799)

unto his brethren
<0251>_,

and looked
<07200> (8799)

on their burdens
<05450>_:

and he spied
<07200> (8799)

an Egyptian
<04713> <0376>

smiting
<05221> (8688)

an Hebrew
<05680>_,

one of his brethren
<0251>_.

2:12

And he looked
<06437> (8799)

this way
<03541>

and that way
<03541>_,

and when he saw
<07200> (8799)

that [there was] no man
<0376>_,

he slew
<05221> (8686)

the Egyptian
<04713>_,

and hid
<02934> (8799)

him in the sand
<02344>_.

2:13

And when he went out
<03318> (8799)

the second
<08145>

day
<03117>_,

behold, two
<08147>

men
<0582>

of the Hebrews
<05680>

strove
<05327> (8737)

together: and he said
<0559> (8799)

to him that did the wrong
<07563>_,

Wherefore smitest
<05221> (8686)

thou thy fellow
<07453>_?

2:14

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Who made
<07760> (8804)

thee
<0376>

a prince
<08269>

and a judge
<08199> (8802)

over us? intendest
<0559> (8802)

thou to kill
<02026> (8800)

me, as thou killedst
<02026> (8804)

the Egyptian
<04713>_?

And Moses
<04872>

feared
<03372> (8799)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Surely
<0403>

this thing
<01697>

is known
<03045> (8738)_.

{a prince: Heb. a man, a prince}

2:15

Now when Pharaoh
<06547>

heard
<08085> (8799)

this thing
<01697>_,

he sought
<01245> (8762)

to slay
<02026> (8800)

Moses
<04872>_.

But Moses
<04872>

fled
<01272> (8799)

from the face
<06440>

of Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in the land
<0776>

of Midian
<04080>_:

and he sat down
<03427> (8799)

by a well
<0875>_.

2:16

Now the priest
<03548>

of Midian
<04080>

had seven
<07651>

daughters
<01323>_:

and they came
<0935> (8799)

and drew
<01802> (8799)

[water], and filled
<04390> (8762)

the troughs
<07298>

to water
<08248> (8687)

their father's
<01>

flock
<06629>_.

{priest: or, prince}

2:17

And the shepherds
<07462> (8802)

came
<0935> (8799)

and drove them away
<01644> (8762)_:

but Moses
<04872>

stood up
<06965> (8799)

and helped
<03467> (8686)

them, and watered
<08248> (8686)

their flock
<06629>_.

2:18

And when they came
<0935> (8799)

to Reuel
<07467>

their father
<01>_,

he said
<0559> (8799)_,

How
<04069>

[is it that] ye are come
<0935> (8800)

so soon
<04116> (8765)

to day
<03117>_?

{Reuel: called also Jethro, or, Jether}

2:19

And they said
<0559> (8799)_,

An Egyptian
<04713> <0376>

delivered
<05337> (8689)

us out of the hand
<03027>

of the shepherds
<07462> (8802)_,

and also drew
<01802> (8804)

[water] enough
<01802> (8800)

for us, and watered
<08248> (8686)

the flock
<06629>_.

2:20

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto his daughters
<01323>_,

And where [is] he? why [is] it [that] ye have left
<05800> (8804)

the man
<0376>_?

call
<07121> (8798)

him, that he may eat
<0398> (8799)

bread
<03899>_.

2:21

And Moses
<04872>

was content
<02974> (8686)

to dwell
<03427> (8800)

with the man
<0376>_:

and he gave
<05414> (8799)

Moses
<04872>

Zipporah
<06855>

his daughter
<01323>_.

2:22

And she bare
<03205> (8799)

[him] a son
<01121>_,

and he called
<07121> (8799)

his name
<08034>

Gershom
<01647>_:

for he said
<0559> (8804)_,

I have been a stranger
<01616>

in a strange
<05237>

land
<0776>_.

{Gershom: that is, A stranger here}

2:23

And it came to pass in process
<01992> <07227>

of time
<03117>_,

that the king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>

died
<04191> (8799)_:

and the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

sighed
<0584> (8735)

by reason of
<04480>

the bondage
<05656>_,

and they cried
<02199> (8799)_,

and their cry
<07775>

came up
<05927> (8799)

unto God
<0430>

by reason of the bondage
<05656>_.

2:24

And God
<0430>

heard
<08085> (8799)

their groaning
<05009>_,

and God
<0430>

remembered
<02142> (8799)

his covenant
<01285>

with Abraham
<085>_,

with Isaac
<03327>_,

and with Jacob
<03290>_.

2:25

And God
<0430>

looked
<07200> (8799)

upon the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and God
<0430>

had respect
<03045> (8799)

unto [them]. {had...: Heb. knew}
