Exodus 2:18 in Context — Exodus 2

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?

19 Elles répondirent: Un Égyptien nous a délivrées de la main des bergers, et même il nous a puisé de l’eau, et a fait boire le troupeau.

20 Et il dit à ses filles: Où est-il? Pourquoi avez-vous laissé cet homme? Appelez-le, pour qu’il prenne quelque nourriture.
