Exodus 2:16 in Context — Exodus 2
14 Et cet homme répondit: Qui t’a établi chef et juge sur nous? Penses-tu me tuer, comme tu as tué l’Égyptien? Moïse eut peur, et dit: Certainement la chose est connue.
15 Pharaon apprit ce qui s’était passé, et il cherchait à faire mourir Moïse. Mais Moïse s’enfuit de devant Pharaon, et il se retira dans le pays de Madian, où il s’arrêta près d’un puits.
16 Le sacrificateur de Madian avait sept filles. Elles vinrent puiser de l’eau, et elles remplirent les auges pour abreuver le troupeau de leur père.
17 Les bergers arrivèrent, et les chassèrent. Alors Moïse se leva, prit leur défense, et fit boire leur troupeau.
18 Quand elles furent de retour auprès de Réuel, leur père, il dit: Pourquoi revenez-vous si tôt aujourd’hui?
