Esodo 2

NOVA VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Egressus est vir de domo Levi et accepit uxorem stirpis suae;	1 And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
2 quae concepit et peperit filium et videns eum elegantem abscondit tribus mensibus.	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.
3 Cumque iam celare non posset, sumpsit fiscellam scirpeam et linivit eam bitumine ac pice; posuitque intus infantulum et exposuit eum in carecto ripae fluminis,	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.
4 stante procul sorore eius et considerante eventum rei.	4 And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.
5 Ecce autem descendebat filia pharaonis, ut lavaretur in flumine, et puellae eius gradiebantur per crepidinem alvei. Quae cum vidisset fiscellam in papyrione, misit unam e famulabus suis; et allatam	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.
6 aperiens cernensque in ea parvulum vagientem, miserta eius ait: “ De infantibus Hebraeorum est hic ”.	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.
7 Cui soror pueri: “ Vis, inquit, ut vadam et vocem tibi mulierem Hebraeam, quae nutrire possit tibi infantulum? ”.	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?
8 Respondit: “ Vade ”. Perrexit puella et vocavit matrem infantis.	8 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's mother.
9 Ad quam locuta filia pharaonis: “ Accipe, ait, puerum istum et nutri mihi; ego dabo tibi mercedem tuam ”. Suscepit mulier et nutrivit puerum adultumque tradidit filiae pharaonis.	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.
10 Quem illa adoptavit in locum filii vocavitque nomen eius Moysen dicens: “ Quia de aqua tuli eum ”.	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.
11 In diebus illis, postquam creverat, Moyses egressus est ad fratres suos; viditque afflictionem eorum et virum Aegyptium percutientem quendam de Hebraeis fratribus suis.	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.
12 Cumque circumspexisset huc atque illuc et nullum adesse vidisset, percussum Aegyptium abscondit sabulo.	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.
13 Et egressus die altero conspexit duos Hebraeos rixantes dixitque ei, qui faciebat iniuriam: “ Quare percutis proximum tuum? ”.	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?
14 Qui respondit: “ Quis te constituit principem et iudicem super nos? Num occidere me tu vis, sicut occidisti Aegyptium? ”. Timuit Moyses et ait: “ Quomodo palam factum est verbum istud? ”.	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.
15 Audivitque pharao sermonem hunc et quaerebat occidere Moysen. Qui fugiens de conspectu eius moratus est in terra Madian; venit ergo in terram Madian et sedit iuxta puteum.	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.
16 Erant autem sacerdoti Madian septem filiae, quae venerunt ad hauriendam aquam; et impletis canalibus adaquare cupiebant greges patris sui.	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.
17 Supervenere pastores et eiecerunt eas: surrexitque Moyses et, defensis puellis, adaquavit oves earum.	17 And the shepherds came and drove them away: but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
18 Quae cum revertissent ad Raguel patrem suum, dixit ad eas: “ Cur velocius venistis solito? ”.	18 And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that ye are come so soon to day?
19 Responderunt: “ Vir Aegyptius liberavit nos de manu pastorum; insuper et hausit aquam nobis potumque dedit ovibus ”.	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.
20 At ille: “ Ubi est? ”, inquit. “ Quare dimisistis hominem? Vocate eum, ut comedat panem ”.	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.
21 Consensit ergo Moyses habitare cum eo accepitque Sephoram filiam eius uxorem.	21 And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
22 Quae peperit ei filium, quem vocavit Gersam dicens: “ Advena sum in terra aliena ”.	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.
23 Post multum vero temporis mortuus est rex Aegypti; et ingemiscentes filii Israel propter opera vociferati sunt, ascenditque clamor eorum ad Deum ab operibus.	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.
24 Et audivit gemitum eorum ac recordatus est foederis, quod pepigit cum Abraham, Isaac et Iacob;	24 And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
25 et respexit Dominus filios Israel et apparuit eis.	25 And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them.
