Moses Escapes to Midian

¹¹ Moses grew up. One day, he went out to where his own people were. He watched them while they were hard at work. He saw an Egyptian hitting a Hebrew man. The man was one of Moses’ own people. ¹² Moses looked around and didn’t see anyone. So he killed the Egyptian. Then he hid his body in the sand.
