Exodus 2:15 in Context — Exodus 2

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.

17 Mas os pastores vieram, e expulsaram-nas: Então Moisés se levantou e defendeu-as, e deu de beber às suas ovelhas.
