20At that time Moses was born, and he was beautiful in the sight of God. For three months he was nurtured in his father’s house.
21When he was set outside, Pharaoh’s daughter took him and brought him up as her own son.
22So Moses was educated in all the wisdom of the Egyptians and was powerful in speech and action.
23When Moses was forty years old, he decided to visit his brothers, the children of Israel.
24And when he saw one of them being mistreated, Moses went to his defense and avenged him by striking down the Egyptian who was oppressing him.
25He assumed his brothers would understand that God was using him to deliver them, but they did not.
