Exodus 2:11-13 ▼

11 On one occasion, after Moses had grown up, when he had gone out to his kinsmen and witnessed their forced labor, he saw an Egyptian striking a Hebrew, one of his own kinsmen.

12 Looking about and seeing no one, he struck down the Egyptian and hid him in the sand.

13 The next day he went out again, and now two Hebrews were fighting! So he asked the culprit, “Why are you striking your companion?”
