| Keluaran 2 | Exodus 2 |
| Musa lahir dan diselamatkan 2:1 Seorang laki-laki dari keluarga Lewi kawin dengan seorang perempuan Lewi; 2:2 lalu mengandunglah ia dan melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki. Ketika dilihatnya, bahwa anak itu cantik, disembunyikannya tiga bulan lamanya. 2:3 Tetapi ia tidak dapat menyembunyikannya lebih lama lagi, sebab itu diambilnya sebuah peti pandan, dipakalnya dengan gala-gala dan ter, diletakkannya bayi itu di dalamnya dan ditaruhnya peti itu di tengah-tengah teberau di tepi sungai Nil; 2:4 kakaknya perempuan berdiri di tempat yang agak jauh untuk melihat, apakah yang akan terjadi dengan dia. 2:5 Maka datanglah puteri Firaun untuk mandi di sungai Nil, sedang dayang-dayangnya berjalan-jalan di tepi sungai Nil, lalu terlihatlah olehnya peti yang di tengah-tengah teberau itu, maka disuruhnya hambanya perempuan untuk mengambilnya. 2:6 Ketika dibukanya, dilihatnya bayi itu, dan tampaklah anak itu menangis, sehingga belas kasihanlah ia kepadanya dan berkata: "Tentulah ini bayi orang Ibrani." 2:7 Lalu bertanyalah kakak anak itu kepada puteri Firaun: "Akan kupanggilkah bagi tuan puteri seorang inang penyusu dari perempuan Ibrani untuk menyusukan bayi itu bagi tuan puteri?" 2:8 Sahut puteri Firaun kepadanya: "Baiklah." Lalu pergilah gadis itu memanggil ibu bayi itu. 2:9 Maka berkatalah puteri Firaun kepada ibu itu: "Bawalah bayi ini dan susukanlah dia bagiku, maka aku akan memberi upah kepadamu." Kemudian perempuan itu mengambil bayi itu dan menyusuinya. 2:10 Ketika anak itu telah besar, dibawanyalah kepada puteri Firaun, yang mengangkatnya menjadi anaknya, dan menamainya Musa, sebab katanya: "Karena aku telah menariknya dari air." Musa membela bangsanya Ia lari ke tanah Midian 2:11 Pada waktu itu, ketika Musa telah dewasa, ia keluar mendapatkan saudara-saudaranya untuk melihat kerja paksa mereka; lalu dilihatnyalah seorang Mesir memukul seorang Ibrani, seorang dari saudara-saudaranya itu. 2:12 Ia menoleh ke sana sini dan ketika dilihatnya tidak ada orang, dibunuhnya orang Mesir itu, dan disembunyikannya mayatnya dalam pasir. 2:13 Ketika keesokan harinya ia keluar lagi, didapatinya dua orang Ibrani tengah berkelahi. Ia bertanya kepada yang bersalah itu: "Mengapa engkau pukul temanmu?" 2:14 Tetapi jawabnya: "Siapakah yang mengangkat engkau menjadi pemimpin dan hakim atas kami? Apakah engkau bermaksud membunuh aku, sama seperti engkau telah membunuh orang Mesir itu?" Musa menjadi takut, sebab pikirnya: "Tentulah perkara itu telah ketahuan." 2:15 Ketika Firaun mendengar tentang perkara itu, dicarinya ikhtiar untuk membunuh Musa. Tetapi Musa melarikan diri dari hadapan Firaun dan tiba di tanah Midian, lalu ia duduk-duduk di tepi sebuah sumur. 2:16 Adapun imam di Midian itu mempunyai tujuh anak perempuan. Mereka datang menimba air dan mengisi palungan-palungan untuk memberi minum kambing domba ayahnya. 2:17 Maka datanglah gembala-gembala yang mengusir mereka, lalu Musa bangkit menolong mereka dan memberi minum kambing domba mereka. 2:18 Ketika mereka sampai kepada Rehuel, ayah mereka, berkatalah ia: "Mengapa selekas itu kamu pulang hari ini?" 2:19 Jawab mereka: "Seorang Mesir menolong kami terhadap gembala-gembala, bahkan ia menimba air banyak-banyak untuk kami dan memberi minum kambing domba." 2:20 Ia berkata kepada anak-anaknya: "Di manakah ia? Mengapakah kamu tinggalkan orang itu? Panggillah dia makan." 2:21 Musa bersedia tinggal di rumah itu, lalu diberikan Rehuellah Zipora, anaknya, kepada Musa. 2:22 Perempuan itu melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki, maka Musa menamainya Gersom, sebab katanya: "Aku telah menjadi seorang pendatang di negeri asing." Musa diutus TUHAN 2:23 Lama sesudah itu matilah raja Mesir. Tetapi orang Israel masih mengeluh karena perbudakan, dan mereka berseru-seru, sehingga teriak mereka minta tolong karena perbudakan itu sampai kepada Allah. 2:24 Allah mendengar mereka mengerang, lalu Ia mengingat kepada perjanjian-Nya dengan Abraham, Ishak dan Yakub. 2:25 Maka Allah melihat orang Israel itu, dan Allah memperhatikan mereka. | 1 And a man of the house of Levi went and took as wife a daughter of Levi. 2 So the woman conceived and bore a son. And when she saw that he was a beautiful child, she hid him three months. 3 But when she could no longer hide him, she took an ark of bulrushes for him, daubed it with asphalt and pitch, put the child in it, and laid it in the reeds by the river's bank. 4 And his sister stood afar off, to know what would be done to him. 5 Then the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the river. And her maidens walked along the riverside; and when she saw the ark among the reeds, she sent her maid to get it. 6 And when she had opened it, she saw the child, and behold, the baby wept. So she had compassion on him, and said, "This is one of the Hebrews' children." 7 Then his sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, "Shall I go and call a nurse for you from the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for you?" 8 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, "Go." So the maiden went and called the child's mother. 9 Then Pharaoh's daughter said to her, "Take this child away and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages." So the woman took the child and nursed him. 10 And the child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. So she called his name Moses, saying, "Because I drew him out of the water." 11 Now it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out to his brethren and looked at their burdens. And he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his brethren. 12 So he looked this way and that way, and when he saw no one, he killed the Egyptian and hid him in the sand. 13 And when he went out the second day, behold, two Hebrew men were fighting, and he said to the one who did the wrong, "Why are you striking your companion?" 14 Then he said, "Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you intend to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?" So Moses feared and said, "Surely this thing is known!" 15 When Pharaoh heard of this matter, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh and dwelt in the land of Midian; and he sat down by a well. 16 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters. And they came and drew water, and they filled the troughs to water their father's flock. 17 Then the shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock. 18 When they came to Reuel their father, he said, "How is it that you have come so soon today?" 19 And they said, "An Egyptian delivered us from the hand of the shepherds, and he also drew enough water for us and watered the flock." 20 So he said to his daughters, "And where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread." 21 Then Moses was content to live with the man, and he gave Zipporah his daughter to Moses. 22 And she bore him a son, and he called his name Gershom; for he said, "I have been a stranger in a foreign land." 23 Now it happened in the process of time that the king of Egypt died. Then the children of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry came up to God because of the bondage. 24 So God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. 25 And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God acknowledged them. |
