Context
14Yule mtu akamjibu, “Ni nani aliyekufanya mtawala na mwamuzi juu yetu? Je, unataka kuniua kama ulivyomuua yule Mmisri?” Ndipo Mose akaogopa na kuwaza, “Jambo lile nililofanya lazima limefahamika.” 15Farao aliposikia jambo hili, alijaribu kumuua Mose, lakini Mose akamkimbia Farao na kwenda kuishi katika nchi ya Midiani, akaketi kando ya kisima. 16Kuhani wa Midiani alikuwa na binti saba, nao wakaja kisimani ili kuchota maji na kujaza hori kwa ajili ya kunyweshea mifugo ya baba yao. 17Baadhi ya wachungaji wakaja wakawafukuza hao wasichana. Ndipo Mose akainuka, akawasaidia na kunywesha mifugo yao. 18Hao wasichana waliporudi nyumbani kwa Reueli baba yao, akawauliza, “Imekuwaje leo mmerudi mapema hivyo?”
