14 The man answered, “Who put you in charge of us and made you our judge? Are you planning to kill me, just as you killed that Egyptian?”This frightened Moses because he was sure that people must have found out what had happened.
15 When the king heard what Moses had done, the king wanted to kill him. But Moses escaped and went to the land of Midian.One day, Moses was sitting there by a well,
16 when the seven daughters of Jethro, the priest of Midian, came up to water their father's sheep and goats.
17 Some shepherds tried to chase them away, but Moses came to their rescue and watered their animals.
18 When Jethro's daughters returned home, their father asked, “Why have you come back so early today?”
19 They answered, “An Egyptian rescued us from the shepherds, and he even watered our sheep and goats.”
20 “Where is he?” Jethro asked. “Why did you leave him out there? Invite him to eat with us.”
