2. Mosebok 2,23

IsraelEgypt
Suffering

21 Moses gikk med på å bli hos mannen, som ga sin datter Sippora til Moses som hans kone.

22 Sippora fødte en sønn, og Moses kalte ham Gersjom, og sa: «Jeg er blitt en vandrer i et fremmed land.»

I løpet av den lange tiden døde kongen av Egypt. Israelittene stønnet under sitt slaveri og ropte ut, og deres rop om hjelp på grunn av deres slaveri nådde Gud.

24 Gud hørte deres stønnen og husket sin pakt med Abraham, Isak og Jakob.

25 Gud så på israelittene og tok notis av dem.
