02:002:015 Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well. 02:002:016 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father's flock. 02:002:017 And the shepherds came and drove them away: but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock. 02:002:018 And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that ye are come so soon to day? 02:002:019 And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and also drew water enough for us, and watered the flock. 02:002:020 And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? why is it that ye have left the man? call him, that he may eat bread. 02:002:021 And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter. 02:002:022 And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange land. 02:002:023 And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage. 02:002:024 And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. 02:002:025 And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them. 02:003:001 Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb. 02:003:002 And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed. 02:003:003 And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt. 02:003:004 And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I. 02:003:005 And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground. 02:003:006 Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God. 02:003:007 And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows; 02:003:008 And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.
