Exodus

Chapter 2

1 And there went1980 a man376 of the house4480 1004 of Levi,3878 and took3947 to wife a853 daughter1323 of Levi.3878

2 And the woman802 conceived,2029 and bore3205 a son:1121 and when she saw7200 him that3588 he1931 was a goodly2896 child, she hid6845 him three7969 months.3391

3 And when she could3201 not3808 longer5750 hide6845 him, she took3947 for him an ark8392 of bulrushes,1573 and daubed2560 it with slime2564 and with pitch,2203 and put7760 853 the child3206 therein; and she laid7760 it in the flags5488 by5921 the river's2975 brink.8193

4 And his sister269 stood3320 afar off,4480 7350 to know3045 what4100 would be done6213 to him.

5 And the daughter1323 of Pharaoh6547 came down3381 to wash7364 herself at5921 the river;2975 and her maidens5291 walked along1980 by5921 the river's2975 side;3027 and when she saw7200 853 the ark8392 among8432 the flags,5488 she sent7971 853 her maid519 to fetch3947 it.

6 And when she had opened6605 it, she saw7200 853 the child:3206 and, behold,2009 the babe5288 wept.1058 And she had compassion2550 on5921 him, and said,559 This2088 is one of the Hebrews' children.4480 3206 5680

7 Then said559 his sister269 to413 Pharaoh's6547 daughter,1323 Shall I go1980 and call7121 to thee a nurse802 3243 of4480 the Hebrew women,5680 that she may nurse3243 853 the child3206 for thee?

8 And Pharaoh's6547 daughter1323 said559 to her, Go.1980 And the maid5959 went1980 and called7121 the child's3206 853 mother.517

9 And Pharaoh's6547 daughter1323 said559 unto her, Take this child away,1980 853 2088 3206 and nurse3243 it for me, and I589 will give5414 thee853 thy wages.7939 And the woman802 took3947 the child,3206 and nursed5134 it.

10 And the child3206 grew,1431 and she brought935 him unto Pharaoh's6547 daughter,1323 and he became1961 her son.1121 And she called7121 his name8034 Moses:4872 and she said,559 Because3588 I drew4871 him out of4480 the water.4325

11 And it came to pass1961 in those1992 days,3117 when Moses4872 was grown,1431 that he went out3318 unto413 his brethren,251 and looked7200 on their burdens:5450 and he spied7200 an Egyptian376 4713 smiting5221 a Hebrew,376 5680 one of his brethren.4480 251

12 And he looked6437 this way3541 and that way,3541 and when he saw7200 that3588 there was no369 man,376 he slew5221 853 the Egyptian,4713 and hid2934 him in the sand.2344

13 And when he went out3318 the second8145 day,3117 behold,2009 two8147 men376 of the Hebrews5680 strove together:5327 and he said559 to him that did the wrong,7563 Wherefore4100 smitest5221 thou thy fellow?7453

14 And he said,559 Who4310 made7760 thee a prince8269 and a judge8199 over5921 us? intendest559 thou859 to kill2026 me, as834 thou killedst2026 853 the Egyptian?4713 And Moses4872 feared,3372 and said,559 Surely403 this thing1697 is known.3045

15 Now when Pharaoh6547 heard8085 this2088 853 thing,1697 he sought1245 to slay2026 853 Moses.4872 But Moses4872 fled1272 from the face4480 6440 of Pharaoh,6547 and dwelt3427 in the land776 of Midian:4080 and he sat down3427 by5921 a well.875

16 Now the priest3548 of Midian4080 had seven7651 daughters:1323 and they came935 and drew1802 water, and filled4390 853 the troughs7298 to water8248 their father's1 flock.6629

17 And the shepherds7462 came935 and drove them away:1644 but Moses4872 stood up6965 and helped3467 them, and watered8248 853 their flock.6629

18 And when they came935 to413 Reuel7467 their father,1 he said,559 How4069 is it that ye are come935 so soon4116 today?3117

19 And they said,559 An Egyptian376 4713 delivered5337 us out of the hand4480 3027 of the shepherds,7462 and also1571 drew water enough1802 1802 for us, and watered8248 853 the flock.6629

20 And he said559 unto413 his daughters,1323 And where346 is he? why4100 is it2088 that ye have left5800 853 the man?376 call7121 him, that he may eat398 bread.3899

21 And Moses4872 was content2974 to dwell3427 with854 the man:376 and he gave5414 Moses4872 853 Zipporah6855 his daughter.1323

22 And she bore3205 him a son,1121 and he called7121 853 his name8034 Gershom:1648 for3588 he said,559 I have been1961 a stranger1616 in a strange5237 land.776

23 And it came to pass1961 in process of time,3117 7227 1992 that the king4428 of Egypt4714 died:4191 and the children1121 of Israel3478 sighed584 by reason of4480 the bondage,5656 and they cried,2199 and their cry7775 came up5927 unto413 God430 by reason of4480 the bondage.5656

24 And God430 heard8085 853 their groaning,5009 and God430 remembered2142 853 his covenant1285 with854 Abraham,85 with854 Isaac,3327 and with854 Jacob.3290

25 And God430 looked upon7200 853 the children1121 of Israel,3478 and God430 had respect3045 unto them.

Chapter 2

1 AND there went a man from the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of the house of Levi.

2 And the woman conceived and bore a son; and when she saw that he was a handsome boy, she hid him for three months

3 And when she could no longer hide him, she took for herself an ark made of acacia wood, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child into it; and laid it among the reeds by the river's bank.

4 And his sister stood afar off, to know what would be done to him.

5 And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe in the river; and her maidens walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the reeds, she sent her maidens to fetch it.

6 And when she had opened it, she saw the child; and, behold, the babe was weeping. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children.

7 Then his sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call for you a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse this child for you?

8 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the girl went and called the child's mother.

9 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Take this child away and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages. So the woman took the child and nursed him.

10 And the child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses; for she said, I drew him out of the water.

11 And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown up, that he went out among his brethren, and saw their oppression; and he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his brethren of the children of Israel.

12 And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man watching, he slew the Egyptian and hid him in the sand.

13 And when he went out the second day, he looked, and behold, two Hebrew men were quarreling together; and he said to him that did the wrong, Why do you beat your fellow?

14 And he replied, Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you intend to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian yesterday? And Moses was afraid, and said, Surely this thing is known.

15 Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the presence of Pharaoh, and went to the land of Midian; and he sat down by a well.

16 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters; and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father's flock.

17 And the shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses rose up and rescued them, and watered their flock.

18 And when they came to Reuel their father, he said to them, How is it that you have watered the flock so soon today?

19 And they said to him, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hands of the shepherds and also drew water for us and watered our flock.

20 And he said to his daughters, And where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Go, invite him, that he may eat bread.

21 And Moses was content to dwell with the man; and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.

22 And she bore a son, and he called his name Gershon; for Moses said, I have been a stranger in a strange land. And she bore again, the second son to Moses, and he called his name Eleazar, saying, For the God of my fathers has helped me and has delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh.

23 And it came to pass after a long time that the king of Egypt died; and the children of Israel groaned because of severe oppression, and they prayed, and their cry came up to God because of severe oppression.

24 And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.

25 And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God noticed their oppression.

4 And his sister stood afar off, to know what would be done to him.

5 And the daughter1323 of Pharaoh6547 came down3381 to wash7364 herself at5921 the river;2975 and her maidens5291 walked along1980 by5921 the river's2975 side;3027 and when she saw7200 853 the ark8392 among8432 the flags,5488 she sent7971 853 her maid519 to fetch3947 it.

7 Then his sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call for you a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse this child for you?

8 And Pharaoh's6547 daughter1323 said559 to her, Go.1980 And the maid5959 went1980 and called7121 the child's3206 853 mother.517

8 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the girl went and called the child's mother.

9 And Pharaoh's6547 daughter1323 said559 unto her, Take this child away,1980 853 2088 3206 and nurse3243 it for me, and I589 will give5414 thee853 thy wages.7939 And the woman802 took3947 the child,3206 and nursed5134 it.

9 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Take this child away and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages. So the woman took the child and nursed him.

10 And the child3206 grew,1431 and she brought935 him unto Pharaoh's6547 daughter,1323 and he became1961 her son.1121 And she called7121 his name8034 Moses:4872 and she said,559 Because3588 I drew4871 him out of4480 the water.4325

10 And the child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses; for she said, I drew him out of the water.

11 And it came to pass1961 in those1992 days,3117 when Moses4872 was grown,1431 that he went out3318 unto413 his brethren,251 and looked7200 on their burdens:5450 and he spied7200 an Egyptian376 4713 smiting5221 a Hebrew,376 5680 one of his brethren.4480 251

11 And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown up, that he went out among his brethren, and saw their oppression; and he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his brethren of the children of Israel.

12 And he looked6437 this way3541 and that way,3541 and when he saw7200 that3588 there was no369 man,376 he slew5221 853 the Egyptian,4713 and hid2934 him in the sand.2344

12 And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man watching, he slew the Egyptian and hid him in the sand.

13 And when he went out3318 the second8145 day,3117 behold,2009 two8147 men376 of the Hebrews5680 strove together:5327 and he said559 to him that did the wrong,7563 Wherefore4100 smitest5221 thou thy fellow?7453

13 And when he went out the second day, he looked, and behold, two Hebrew men were quarreling together; and he said to him that did the wrong, Why do you beat your fellow?

14 And he replied, Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you intend to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian yesterday? And Moses was afraid, and said, Surely this thing is known.

15 Now when Pharaoh6547 heard8085 this2088 853 thing,1697 he sought1245 to slay2026 853 Moses.4872 But Moses4872 fled1272 from the face4480 6440 of Pharaoh,6547 and dwelt3427 in the land776 of Midian:4080 and he sat down3427 by5921 a well.875

15 Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the presence of Pharaoh, and went to the land of Midian; and he sat down by a well.

16 Now the priest3548 of Midian4080 had seven7651 daughters:1323 and they came935 and drew1802 water, and filled4390 853 the troughs7298 to water8248 their father's1 flock.6629

16 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters; and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father's flock.

17 And the shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses rose up and rescued them, and watered their flock.

18 And when they came935 to413 Reuel7467 their father,1 he said,559 How4069 is it that ye are come935 so soon4116 today?3117

18 And when they came to Reuel their father, he said to them, How is it that you have watered the flock so soon today?

19 And they said,559 An Egyptian376 4713 delivered5337 us out of the hand4480 3027 of the shepherds,7462 and also1571 drew water enough1802 1802 for us, and watered8248 853 the flock.6629

19 And they said to him, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hands of the shepherds and also drew water for us and watered our flock.

20 And he said559 unto413 his daughters,1323 And where346 is he? why4100 is it2088 that ye have left5800 853 the man?376 call7121 him, that he may eat398 bread.3899

20 And he said to his daughters, And where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Go, invite him, that he may eat bread.

21 And Moses4872 was content2974 to dwell3427 with854 the man:376 and he gave5414 Moses4872 853 Zipporah6855 his daughter.1323

21 And Moses was content to dwell with the man; and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.

22 And she bore3205 him a son,1121 and he called7121 853 his name8034 Gershom:1648 for3588 he said,559 I have been1961 a stranger1616 in a strange5237 land.776

22 And she bore a son, and he called his name Gershon; for Moses said, I have been a stranger in a strange land. And she bore again, the second son to Moses, and he called his name Eleazar, saying, For the God of my fathers has helped me and has delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh.

23 And it came to pass1961 in process of time,3117 7227 1992 that the king4428 of Egypt4714 died:4191 and the children1121 of Israel3478 sighed584 by reason of4480 the bondage,5656 and they cried,2199 and their cry7775 came up5927 unto413 God430 by reason of4480 the bondage.5656

23 And it came to pass after a long time that the king of Egypt died; and the children of Israel groaned because of severe oppression, and they prayed, and their cry came up to God because of severe oppression.

24 And God430 heard8085 853 their groaning,5009 and God430 remembered2142 853 his covenant1285 with854 Abraham,85 with854 Isaac,3327 and with854 Jacob.3290

24 And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.

25 And God430 looked upon7200 853 the children1121 of Israel,3478 and God430 had respect3045 unto them.

25 And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God noticed their oppression.
