Exodus 2:10-12

International Children’s Bible

¹⁰ After the child had grown older, the woman took him to the king’s daughter. She adopted the baby as her own son. The king’s daughter named him Moses,^[a] because she had pulled him out of the water.

Moses Helps His People

¹¹ Moses grew and became a man. One day he visited his people, the Hebrews. He saw that they were forced to work very hard. He saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew man, one of Moses’ own people. ¹² Moses looked all around and saw that no one was watching. So he killed the Egyptian and hid his body in the sand.
