Exodus 2:13-16-17 The Message (MSG)

13. The next day he went out there again. Two Hebrew men were fighting. He spoke to the man who started it: “Why are you hitting your neighbor?”

14. The man shot back: “Who do you think you are, telling us what to do? Are you going to kill me the way you killed that Egyptian?”Then Moses panicked: “Word’s gotten out—people know about this.”

15. Pharaoh heard about it and tried to kill Moses, but Moses got away to the land of Midian. He sat down by a well.

16-17. The priest of Midian had seven daughters. They came and drew water, filling the troughs and watering their father’s sheep. When some shepherds came and chased the girls off, Moses came to their rescue and helped them water their sheep.
