LXX
1
And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
Ἦν δέ τις ἐκ τῆς φυλῆς Λευὶ, ὃς ἔλαβεν τῶν θυγατέρων Λευί.
2
And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.
Καὶ ἐν γαστρὶ ἔλαβε, καὶ ἔτεκεν ἄρσεν· ἰδόντες δὲ αὐτὸ ἀστεῖον, ἐσπέπασαν αὐτὸ μῆνας τρεῖς.
3
And 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.
Ἐπεὶ δὲ οὐκ ἐδύναντο αὐτὸ ἔτι κρύπτειν, ἔλαβεν αὐτῷ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ θῖβιν, καὶ κατέχρισεν αὐτὴν ἀσφαλτοπίσσῃ, καὶ ἐνέβαλε τὸ παιδίον εἰς αὐτήν, καὶ ἔθηκεν αὐτὴν εἰς τὸ ἕλος παρὰ τὸν ποταμόν.
4
And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.
Καὶ κατεσκόπευεν ἡ ἀδελφὴ αὐτοῦ μακρόθεν, μαθεῖν τί τὸ ἀποβησόμενον αὐτῷ.
5
And 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.
Κατέβη δὲ ἡ θυγάτηρ Φαραὼ λούσασθαι ἐπὶ τὸν ποταμὸν, καὶ αἱ ἅβραι αὐτῆς παρεπορεύοντο παρὰ τὸν ποταμόν· καὶ ἰδοῦσα τὴν θίβιν ἐν τῷ ἕλει, ἀποστείλασα τὴν ἅβραν, ἀνείλατο αὐτήν.
6
And 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.
Ἀνοίξασα δὲ ὁρᾷ παιδίον κλαῖον ἐν τῇ θίβει· καὶ ἐφείσατο αὐτοῦ ἡ θυγάτηρ Φαραὼ, καὶ ἔφη, ἀπὸ τῶν παιδίων τῶν Ἐβραίων τοῦτο.
7
Then 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?
Καὶ εἶπεν ἡ ἀδελφὴ αὐτοῦ τῇ θυγατρὶ Φαραὼ, θέλεις καλέσω σοι γυναῖκα τροφεύουσαν ἐκ τῶν Ἐβραίων, καὶ θηλάσει σαι τὸ παιδὶον σοι τὸ παιδίον;
8
And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child’s mother.
Ἡ δὲ εἶπεν ἡ θυγάτηρ Φαραὼ, πορεύου· ἐλθοῦσα δὲ νεᾶνις ἐκάλεσε τὴν μητέρα τοῦ παιδίου.
9
And Pharaoh’s daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the woman took the child, and nursed it.
Εἶπεν δὲ πρὸς αὐτὴν ἡ θυγάτηρ Φαραὼ, διατήρησόν μοι τὸ παιδίον τοῦτο, καὶ θήλασόν μοι αὐτὸ, ἐγὼ δὲ δώσω σοι τὸν μισθόν· ἔλαβε δὲ ἡ γυνὴ τὸ παιδίον, καὶ ἐθήλαζεν αὐτό.
10
And 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.
Ἁδρυνθέντος δὲ τοῦ παιδίου, εἰσήγαγεν αὐτὸ πρὸς τὴν θυγατέρα Φαραὼ, καὶ ἐγενήθη αὐτῇ εἰς υἱόν· ἐπωνόμασε δὲ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Μωυσῆν, λέγουσα, ἐκ τοῦ ὕδατος αὐτὸν ἀνειλόμην.
11
And 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.
Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ταῖς πολλαῖς ἐκείναις μέγας γενόμενος Μωυσῆς, ἐξῆλθε πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραήλ· κατανοήσας δὲ τὸν πόνον αὐτῶν, ὁρᾷ ἄνθρωπον Αἰγύπτιον τύπτοντα τινὰ Ἐβραῖον, τῶν ἑαυτοῦ ἀδελφῶν τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ.
12
And 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.
Περιβλεψάμενος δὲ ὧδε καὶ ὧδε οὐχ ὁρᾷ οὐδένα, καὶ πατάξας τὸν Αἰγύπτιον, ἔκρυψεν αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ ἄμμῳ.
13
And 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?
Ἐξελθὼν δὲ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ δευτέρᾳ, ὁρᾷ δύο ἄνδρας Ἐβραίους διαπληκτιζομένους· καὶ λέγει τῷ ἀδικοῦντι, διὰ τί σὺ τύπτεις τὸν πλησίον;
14
And 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.
Ὁ δὲ εἶπε, τίς σε κατέστησεν ἄρχοντα καὶ δικαστὴν ἐφʼ ἡμῶν; μὴ ἀνελεῖν με σὺ θέλεις, ὃν τρόπον ἀνεῖλες χθὲς τὸν Αἰγύπτιον; ἐφοβήθη δὲ Μωυσῆς, καὶ εἶπεν, εἰ οὕτως ἐμφανὲς γέγονε τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο.
15
Now 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.
Ἤκουσε δὲ Φαραὼ τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο, καὶ ἐζήτει ἀνελεῖν Μωυσῆν. Ἀνεχώρησε δὲ Μωυσῆς ἀπὸ προσώπου Φαραὼ, καὶ ᾤκησεν ἐν γῇ Μαδιάμ· ἐλθὼν δὲ εἰς γῆν Μαδιὰμ, ἐκάθισεν ἐπὶ τοῦ φρέατος.
16
Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock.
Τῷ δὲ ἱερεῖ Μαδιὰμ ἦσαν ἑπτὰ θυγατέρες, ποιμαίνουσαι τὰ πρόβατα τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῶν Ἰοθόρ· παραγενόμεναι δὲ ἤντλουν, ἕως ἔπλησαν τὰς δεξαμενάς, ποτίσαι τὰ πρόβατα τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῶν Ἰοθόρ.
17
And the shepherds came and drove them away: but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
Παραγενόμενοι δὲ οἱ ποιμένες ἐξέβαλλον αὐτάς· ἀναστὰς δὲ Μωυσῆς ἐῤῥύσατο αὐτὰς, καὶ ἤντλησεν αὐταῖς, καὶ ἐπότισε τὰ πρόβατα αὐτῶν.
18
And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that ye are come so soon to day?
Παρεγένοντο δὲ πρὸς Ῥαγουὴλ τὸν πατέρα αὐτῶν· ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐταῖς, διατί ἐταχύνατε τοῦ παραγενέσθαι σήμερον;
19
And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and also drew water enough for us, and watered the flock.
Αἱ δὲ εἶπαν, ἄνθρωπος Αἰγύπτιος ἐῤῥύσατο ἡμᾶς ἀπὸ τῶν ποιμένων, καὶ ἤντλησεν ἡμῖν, καὶ ἐπότισε τὰ πρόβατα ἡμῶν.
20
And 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.
Ὁ δὲ εἶπε ταῖς θυγατράσιν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ποῦ ἐστιν; καὶ ἱνατί καταλελοίπατε τὸν ἄνθρωπον; καλέσατε οὖν αὐτὸν, ὅπως φάγῃ ἄρτον.
21
And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
Κατῳκίσθη δὲ Μωυσῆς παρὰ τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ· καὶ ἐξέδοτο Σεπφώραν τὴν θυγατέρα αὐτοῦ Μωυσῇ γυναῖκα.
22
And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange land.
Ἐν γαστρὶ δὲ λαβοῦσα ἡ γυνὴ ἔτεκεν υἱόν· καὶ ἐπωνόμασε Μωυσῆς τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Γηρσάμ, λέγων, ὅτι παροικός εἰμι ἐν γῇ ἀλλοτρίᾳ.
23
And 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.
Μετὰ δὲ τὰς ἡμέρας τὰς πολλὰς ἐκείνας, ἐτελεύτησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Αἰγύπτου, καὶ κατεστέναξαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἀπὸ τῶν ἔργων, καὶ ἀνεβόησαν· καὶ ἀνέβη ἡ βοὴ αὐτῶν πρὸς τὸν Θεὸν ἀπὸ τῶν ἔργων.
24
And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
Καὶ εἰσήκουσεν ὁ Θεὸς τὸν στεναγμὸν αὐτῶν· καὶ ἐμνήσθη ὁ Θεὸς τῆς διαθήκης αὐτοῦ τῆς πρὸς Ἀβραὰμ, καὶ Ἰσαὰκ, καὶ Ἰακώβ.
25
And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them.
Καὶ ἐπεῖδεν ὁ Θεὸς τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἐγνώσθη αὐτοῖς.
