1And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
1[] Υπηγε δε ανθρωπος τις εκ του οικου Λευι, και ελαβεν εις γυναικα μιαν εκ των θυγατερων Λευι.
2And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.
2Και συνελαβεν η γυνη και εγεννησεν υιον· ιδουσα δε αυτον οτι ητο ευμορφος, εκρυψεν αυτον τρεις μηνας.
3And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river's brink.
3Μη δυναμενη δε να κρυπτη αυτον πλεον, ελαβε δι' αυτον κιβωτιον σπαρτινον και κατεχρισεν αυτο με ασφαλτον και πισσαν και ενεβαλε το παιδιον εις αυτο και εθεσεν εις το ελωδες μερος παρα το χειλος του ποταμου.
4And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.
4Η δε αδελφη αυτου παρεμονευε μακροθεν, δια να ιδη το αποβησομενον εις αυτο.
5And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it.
5[] Και κατεβη η θυγατηρ του Φαραω δια να λουσθη εις τον ποταμον, αι δε θεραπαιναι αυτης περιεπατουν επι την οχθην του ποταμου· και οτε ειδε το κιβωτιον εις το ελωδες μερος, εστειλε την παιδισκην αυτης και ελαβεν αυτο·
6And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children.
6και ανοιξασα βλεπει το παιδιον και ιδου, το νηπιον εκλαιε· και ελυπηθη αυτο, λεγουσα, Εκ των παιδιων των Εβραιων ειναι τουτο.
7Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?
7Τοτε ειπεν η αδελφη αυτου προς την θυγατερα του Φαραω, Θελεις να υπαγω να καλεσω εις σε γυναικα θηλαζουσαν εκ των Εβραιων, δια να σοι θηλαση το παιδιον;
8And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's mother.
8Και ειπε προς αυτην η θυγατηρ του Φαραω, Υπαγε. Και υπηγε το κορασιον και εκαλεσε την μητερα του παιδιου.
9And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the women took the child, and nursed it.
9Και ειπε προς αυτην η θυγατηρ του Φαραω, Λαβε το παιδιον τουτο και θηλασον μοι αυτο, και εγω θελω σοι δωσει τον μισθον σου.
10And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water.
10Ελαβε δε η γυνη το παιδιον και εθηλαζεν αυτο. Και αφου εμεγαλωσε το παιδιον, εφερεν αυτο προς την θυγατερα του Φαραω, και εγεινεν υιος αυτης· και εκαλεσε το ονομα αυτου Μωυσην, λεγουσα, Οτι εκ του υδατος ανεσυρα αυτο.
11And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens: and he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew, one of his brethren.
11[] Κατα δε τας ημερας εκεινας, αφου ο Μωυσης εμεγαλωσεν, εξηλθε προς τους αδελφους αυτου· και παρατηρων τα βαρη αυτων, βλεπει ανθρωπον Αιγυπτιον τυπτοντα Εβραιον τινα εκ των αδελφων αυτου.
12And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
12Περιβλεψας δε εδω και εκει και ιδων οτι δεν ητο ουδεις, επαταξε τον Αιγυπτιον και εκρυψεν αυτον εν τη αμμω.
13And when he went out the second day, behold, two men of the Hebrews strove together: and he said to him that did the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow?
13Και εξηλθε την ακολουθον ημεραν και ιδου, δυο ανδρες Εβραιοι διεπληκτιζοντο· και λεγει προς τον αδικουντα, Δια τι τυπτεις τον πλησιον σου;
14And he said, Who made thee a prince and a judge over us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely this thing is known.
14Ο δε ειπε, Τις σε κατεστησεν αρχοντα και κριτην εφ' ημας; Μηπως θελεις συ να με φονευσης, καθως εφονευσας τον Αιγυπτιον; Και εφοβηθη ο Μωυσης και ειπε, Βεβαιως το πραγμα τουτο εγεινε γνωστον.
15Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well.
15Ακουσας δε ο Φαραω το πραγμα τουτο, εζητει να θανατωση τον Μωυσην· αλλ' ο Μωυσης εφυγεν απο προσωπου του Φαραω και κατωκησεν εν τη γη Μαδιαμ· εκαθισε δε πλησιον του φρεατος.
16Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father's flock.
16[] Ο δε ιερευς της Μαδιαμ ειχεν επτα θυγατερας, αιτινες ελθουσαι ηντλησαν υδωρ και εγεμισαν τας ποτιστρας δια να ποτισωσι τα προβατα του πατρος αυτων.
17And the shepherds came and drove them away: but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
17Ελθοντες δε οι ποιμενες εδιωξαν αυτας· και σηκωθεις ο Μωυσης εβοηθησεν αυτας και εποτισε τα προβατα αυτων.
18And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that ye are come so soon to day?
18Και οτε ηλθον προς Ραγουηλ τον πατερα αυτων, ειπε προς αυτας, Δια τι τοσον ταχεως ηλθετε σημερον;
19And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and also drew water enough for us, and watered the flock.
19Αι δε ειπον, Ανθρωπος Αιγυπτιος ελυτρωσεν ημας εκ των χειρων των ποιμενων και προσετι ηντλησεν εις ημας υδωρ και εποτισε τα προβατα.
20And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? why is it that ye have left the man? call him, that he may eat bread.
20Ο δε ειπε προς τας θυγατερας αυτου, Και που ειναι; δια τι αφηκατε τον ανθρωπον; καλεσατε αυτον δια να φαγη αρτον.
21And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
21Και ευχαριστηθη ο Μωυσης να κατοικη μετα του ανθρωπου· οστις εδωκεν εις τον Μωυσην εις γυναικα Σεπφωραν την θυγατερα αυτου.
22And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange land.
22Και εγεννησεν υιον· και εκαλεσε το ονομα αυτου Γηρσωμ, λεγων, Παροικος ειμαι εν ξενη γη·
23And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.
23[] Μετα δε πολυν καιρον, ετελευτησεν ο βασιλευς της Αιγυπτου· και κατεστεναξαν οι υιοι Ισραηλ δια την δουλειαν και ανεβοησαν· και η βοη αυτων ανεβη προς τον Θεον εξ αιτιας της δουλειας.
24And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
24Και εισηκουσεν ο Θεος των στεναγμων αυτων· και ενεθυμηθη ο Θεος την διαθηκην αυτου την προς τον Αβρααμ, τον Ισαακ και τον Ιακωβ·
25And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them.
25και επεβλεψεν ο Θεος επι τους υιους Ισραηλ και ηλεησεν αυτους ο Θεος.
