12: So he lookedH6437 this wayH3541 [and] that way,H3541 and when he sawH7200 thatH3588 noH0369 one,H0376 then he killedH5221 -H0853 the Egyptian,H4713 and hid himH2934 in the sand.H2344

14: and he said,H0559 whoH4310 made youH7760 -H0376 a princeH8269 and a judgeH8199 over us?H5921 to kill meH2026 youH0859 intend,H0559 asH0834 you killedH2026 -H0853 the Egyptian?H4713 and fearedH3372 Moses,H4872 and said,H0559 surelyH0403 is knownH3045 this thing.H1697

15: And when heardH8085 PharaohH6547 -H0853 of matterH1697 this,H2088 then he soughtH1245 to killH2026 -H0853 Moses.H4872 But fledH1272 MosesH4872 from the faceH6440 of Pharaoh,H6547 and dweltH3427 in the landH0776 of Midian,H4080 and he sat downH3427 byH5921 a well.H0875

18: And they cameH0935 toH0413 ReuelH7467 their father,H0001 and he said,H0559 WhyH4069 so earlyH4116 have you returnedH0935 today?H3117

19: and they said,H0559 -H0376 An EgyptianH4713 delivered usH5337 from the handH3027 of the shepherds,H7462 and alsoH1571 evenH1802 he drew waterH1802 and wateredH8248 -H0853 the flock .H6629

20: So he saidH0559 toH0413 his daughters,H1323 and where [is] he?H0346 whatH4100 [is] thisH2088 [that] you have leftH5800 -H0853 the man?H0376 CallH7121 that he may eatH0398 bread.H3899

21: And was contentH2974 MosesH4872 to liveH3427 withH0854 the man,H0376 and he gaveH5414 -H0853 ZipporahH6855 his daughterH1323 to Moses.H4872

22: And she bore [him]H3205 a son,H1121 and he calledH7121 -H0853 his nameH8034 Gershom,H1647 forH3588 he said,H0559 a strangerH1616 I have beenH1961 in a land.H0776 Strange.H5237

23: And it came to passH1961 after daysH3117 manyH7227 those,H1992 that died.H4191 The kingH4428 of Egypt,H4714 and groanedH0584 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 becauseH4480 of the bondage-H5656 and they cried out,H2199 And came upH5927 their cryH7775 toH0413 God,H0430 becauseH4480 of the bondage.H5656

24: So heardH8085 GodH0430 -H0853 their groaning,H5009 and rememberedH2142 GodH0430 -H0853 His covenantH1285 withH0854 Abraham,H0085 withH0854 Isaac,H3327 and withH0854 Jacob.H3290
