22. “And Mosheh was instructed in all the wisdom of the Mitsrites, and was mighty in words and works.
23. “And when he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brothers, the children of Yisra’ĕl.
24. “And seeing one of them being wronged, he defended and revenged him who was oppressed, smiting the Mitsrite.
25. “And he thought that his brothers would have understood that Elohim would give deliverance to them by his hand, but they did not understand.
26. “And the next day he appeared to two of them as they were fighting, and urged them to peace, saying, ‘Men, you are brothers, why do you wrong one another?’
27. “But he who was wronging his neighbour pushed him away, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge over us?
28. ‘Do you wish to kill me as you killed the Mitsrite yesterday?’
29. “And at this saying, Mosheh fled and became a sojourner in the land of Miḏyan, where he fathered two sons.
30. “And after forty years were completed, a Messenger of יהוה appeared to him in a flame of fire in a bush, in the wilderness of Mount Sinai.
31. “And Mosheh, seeing it, marvelled at the sight, and coming near to look, the voice of יהוה came to him,
32. saying, ‘I am the Elohim of your fathers, the Elohim of Aḇraham and the Elohim of Yitsḥaq and the Elohim of Ya‛aqoḇ.’ And Mosheh trembled and did not have the courage to look.
33. ‘But יהוה said to him, “Take your sandals off your feet, for the place where you stand is set-apart ground.
34. “I have certainly seen the evil treatment of my people who are in Mitsrayim, and I have heard their groaning and have come down to deliver them. And now come, let Me send you to Mitsrayim.” ’
35. “This Mosheh whom they had refused, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge?’ – this one Elohim sent to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the Messenger who appeared to him in the bush.
36. “This one led them out, after he had done wonders and signs in the land of Mitsrayim, and in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness forty years.
