Exodus 2:18 in Context — Exodus 2

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.

18 E voltando elas a Reuel seu pai, disse-lhes ele: Por que viestes hoje tão cedo?

19 E elas responderam: Um homem egípcio nos defendeu da mão dos pastores, e também tirou a água, e deu de beber as as ovelhas.

20 E disse a suas filhas: E onde está? Por que deixastes esse homem? Chamai-lhe para que coma pão.
