Acts 7:23-29
The Rejection and Flight of Moses
23 And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel.
23:
24 And seeing one [of them] suffer wrong, he defended [him], and avenged him that was oppressed, and smote the Egyptian:
24:
25 For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not.
25:
26 And the next day he shewed himself unto them as they strove, and would have set them at one again, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye wrong one to another?
26:
27 But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?
27:
28 Wilt thou kill me, as thou diddest the Egyptian yesterday?
28:
29 Then fled Moses at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Madian, where he begat two sons.
29:
