12. He looked this way and that way, and when he saw no one, he killed the Egyptian and hid him in the sand.
13. When he went out the next day, two men of the Hebrews struggled with each other; and he said to him that did the wrong, “Why do you strike your companion?”
14. He said, “Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you intend to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?” Moses feared 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 settled in the land of Midian, and he dwelled 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. Then shepherds came and drove them away, but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
18. When they came to Reuel their father, he said, “Why is it you have come back so soon today?”
19. And they said, “An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds and also drew water for us and watered the flock.”
20. He said to his daughters, “So where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him so that he may eat bread.”
