22. And Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and he was mighty in his words and deeds.
23. And when a period of forty years was fulfilled to him, it came into his heart to look upon his brethren, the sons of Israel;
24. and seeing a certain one wronged, he defended him, and avenged him that was being oppressed, smiting the Egyptian.
25. For he thought that his brethren would understand that God by his hand was giving them deliverance. But they understood not.
26. And on the morrow he shewed himself to them as they were contending, and compelled them to peace, saying, Ye are brethren, why do ye wrong one another?
27. But he that was wronging his neighbour thrust him away, saying, Who established thee ruler and judge over us?
