1
H3212 [H8799]
And there went
H376
a man
H1004
of the house
H3878
of Levi,
H3947 [H8799]
and married
H1323
a daughter
H3878
of Levi.
2
H802
And the woman
H2029 [H8799]
conceived,
H3205 [H8799]
and bore
H1121
a son:
H7200 [H8799]
and when she saw
H2896
him that he was a beautiful
H6845 [H8799]
child, she hid
H7969
him three
H3391
months.
3
H3201 [H8804]
And when she could
H5750
no longer
H6845 [H8687]
hide
H3947 [H8799]
him, she took
H8392
for him an ark
H1573
of bulrushes,
H2560 [H8799]
and daubed
H2564
it with slime
H2203
and with pitch,
H7760 [H8799]
and put
H3206
the child
H7760 [H8799]
in it; and she laid
H5488
it in the flags
H2975
by the river's
H8193
brink.
4
H269
And his sister
H3320 [H8691]
stood
H7350
afar off,
H3045 [H8800]
to know
H6213 [H8735]
what would be done to him.
5
H1323
And the daughter
H6547
of Pharaoh
H3381 [H8799]
came down
H7364 [H8800]
to wash
H2975
herself at the river;
H5291
and her damsels
H1980 [H8802]
walked
H2975
along by the river's
H3027
side;
H7200 [H8799]
and when she saw
H8392
the ark
H8432
among
H5488
the flags,
H7971 [H8799]
she sent
H519
her maid
H3947 [H8799]
to fetch it.
6
H6605 [H8799]
And when she had opened
H7200 [H8799]
it, she saw
H3206
the child:
H5288
and, behold, the babe
H1058 [H8802]
wept.
H2550 [H8799]
And she had commiseration
H559 [H8799]
on him, and said,
H5680
This is one of the Hebrews'
H3206
children.
7
H559 [H8799]
Then said
H269
his sister
H6547
to Pharaoh's
H1323
daughter,
H3212 [H8799]
Shall I go
H7121 [H8804]
and call
H3243 [H8688]
to thee a nurse
H5680
of the Hebrew
H802
women,
H3243 [H8686]
that she may nurse
H3206
the child for thee?
8
H6547
And Pharaoh's
H1323
daughter
H559 [H8799]
said
H3212 [H8798]
to her, Go.
H5959
And the maid
H3212 [H8799]
went
H7121 [H8799]
and called
H3206
the child's
H517
mother.
9
H6547
And Pharaoh's
H1323
daughter
H559 [H8799]
said
H3212 0
to her, Take
H3206
this child
H3212 [H8685]
away,
H3243 [H8685]
and nurse
H5414 [H8799]
it for me, and I will give
H7939
thee thy wages.
H802
And the woman
H3947 [H8799]
took
H3206
the child,
H5134 [H8686]
and nursed him.
10
H3206
And the child
H1431 [H8799]
grew,
H935 [H8686]
and she brought
H6547
him to Pharaoh's
H1323
daughter,
H1121
and he became her son.
H7121 [H8799]
And she called
H8034
his name
H4872
Moses:
H559 [H8799]
and she said,
H4871 [H8804]
Because I drew
H4325
him out of the water.
11
H3117
And it came to pass in those days,
H4872
when Moses
H1431 [H8799]
was grown,
H3318 [H8799]
that he went out
H251
to his brethren,
H7200 [H8799]
and looked
H5450
on their burdens:
H7200 [H8799]
and he saw
H4713 H376
an Egyptian
H5221 [H8688]
smiting
H5680
an Hebrew,
H251
one of his brethren.
12
H6437 [H8799]
And he looked
H3541
this way
H3541
and that way,
H7200 [H8799]
and when he saw
H376
that there was no man,
H5221 [H8686]
he slew
H4713
the Egyptian,
H2934 [H8799]
and hid
H2344
him in the sand.
13
H3318 [H8799]
And when he went out
H8145
the second
H3117
day,
H8147
behold, two
H582
men
H5680
of the Hebrews
H5327 [H8737]
strove
H559 [H8799]
together: and he said
H7563
to him that did the wrong,
H5221 [H8686]
Why smitest
H7453
thou thy companion?
14
H559 [H8799]
And he said,
H7760 [H8804]
Who made
H376
thee
H8269
a prince
H8199 [H8802]
and a judge
H559 [H8802]
over us? intendest
H2026 [H8800]
thou to kill
H2026 [H8804]
me, as thou didst kill
H4713
the Egyptian?
H4872
And Moses
H3372 [H8799]
feared,
H559 [H8799]
and said,
H403
Surely
H1697
this thing
H3045 [H8738]
is known.
15
H6547
Now when Pharaoh
H8085 [H8799]
heard
H1697
this thing,
H1245 [H8762]
he sought
H2026 [H8800]
to slay
H4872
Moses.
H4872
But Moses
H1272 [H8799]
fled
H6440
from the face
H6547
of Pharaoh,
H3427 [H8799]
and dwelt
H776
in the land
H4080
of Midian:
H3427 [H8799]
and he sat down
H875
by a well.
16
H3548
Now the priest
H4080
of Midian
H7651
had seven
H1323
daughters:
H935 [H8799]
and they came
H1802 [H8799]
and drew
H4390 [H8762]
water, and filled
H7298
the troughs
H8248 [H8687]
to water
H1
their father's
H6629
flock.
17
H7462 [H8802]
And the shepherds
H935 [H8799]
came
H1644 [H8762]
and drove them away:
H4872
but Moses
H6965 [H8799]
stood up
H3467 [H8686]
and liberated
H8248 [H8686]
them, and watered
H6629
their flock.
18
H935 [H8799]
And when they came
H7467
to Reuel
H1
their father,
H559 [H8799]
he said,
H4069
How
H935 [H8800]
is it that ye are come
H4116 [H8765]
so soon
H3117
to day?
19
H559 [H8799]
And they said,
H4713 H376
An Egyptian
H5337 [H8689]
delivered
H3027
us from the hand
H7462 [H8802]
of the shepherds,
H1802 [H8804]
and also drew
H1802 [H8800]
water enough
H8248 [H8686]
for us, and watered
H6629
the flock.
20
H559 [H8799]
And he said
H1323
to his daughters,
H5800 [H8804]
And where is he? why is it that ye have left
H376
the man?
H7121 [H8798]
call
H398 [H8799]
him, that he may eat
H3899
bread.
21
H4872
And Moses
H2974 [H8686]
was content
H3427 [H8800]
to dwell
H376
with the man:
H5414 [H8799]
and he gave
H4872
Moses
H6855
Zipporah
H1323
his daughter.
22
H3205 [H8799]
And she bore
H1121
him a son,
H7121 [H8799]
and he called
H8034
his name
H1647
Gershom:
H559 [H8804]
for he said,
H1616
I have been a guest
H5237
in a foreign
H776
land.
23
H1992 H7227
And it came to pass in process
H3117
of time,
H4428
that the king
H4714
of Egypt
H4191 [H8799]
died:
H1121
and the sons
H3478
of Israel
H584 [H8735]
sighed
H4480
by reason of
H5656
the bondage,
H2199 [H8799]
and they cried,
H7775
and their hallooing
H5927 [H8799]
came up
H430
to God
H5656
by reason of the bondage.
