23. And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the sons of Israel.
24. And seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him and smote the Egyptian, avenging the oppressed;
25. for he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God was to give them saving health by his hand, but they had not understood.
26. And the next day he showed himself unto them as they strove and urged them to peace, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye wrong one to another?
27. But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a prince and a judge over us?
28. Wilt thou kill me as thou didst the Egyptian yesterday?
