And seeing one of them being attacked, he went to his help and gave the Egyptian a death-blow:
Now when Moses had become a man, one day he went out to his people and saw how hard their work was; and he saw an Egyptian giving blows to a Hebrew, one of his people.
And turning this way and that, and seeing no one, he put the Egyptian to death, covering his body with sand.
But when he was almost forty years old, it came into his heart to go and see his brothers, the children of Israel.
And he was hoping that his brothers would see that God had sent him to be their saviour; but they did not see.
Will you put me to death as you did the Egyptian yesterday?
