Exodus 2:14 in Context — Exodus 2

12 E olhou a todas as partes, e vendo que não parecia ninguém, matou ao egípcio, e escondeu-o na areia.

13 E saiu ao dia seguinte, e vendo a dois hebreus que brigavam, disse ao que fazia a injúria: Por que feres a teu próximo?

14 E ele respondeu: Quem te pôs a ti por príncipe e juiz sobre nós? Pensas matar-me como mataste ao egípcio? Então Moisés teve medo, e disse: Certamente esta coisa é descoberta.

15 E ouvindo Faraó este negócio, procurou matar a Moisés: mas Moisés fugiu de diante de Faraó, e habitou na terra de Midiã; e sentou-se junto a um poço.

16 Tinha o sacerdote de Midiã sete filhas, as quais vieram a tirar água, para encher os bebedouros e dar de beber as ovelhas de seu pai.
