Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1A man of the house of Levi went and took a daughter of Levi as his wife.
1有一个 利未 家的人娶了一个 利未 女子为妻。
2The woman conceived and bore a son. When she saw that he was a fine child, she hid him three months.
2那女人怀孕,生一个儿子,见他俊美,就藏了他三个月,
3When she could no longer hide him, she took a papyrus basket for him, and coated it with tar and with pitch. She put the child in it, and laid it in the reeds by the river’s bank.
3后来不能再藏,就取了一个蒲草箱,抹上石漆和石油,将孩子放在里头,把箱子搁在河边的芦荻中。
4His sister stood far off, to see what would be done to him.
4孩子的姊姊远远站着,要知道他究竟怎么样。
5Pharaoh’s daughter came down to bathe at the river. Her maidens walked along by the riverside. She saw the basket among the reeds, and sent her servant to get it.
5法老的女儿来到河边洗澡,她的使女们在河边行走。她看见箱子在芦荻中,就打发一个婢女拿来。
6She opened it, and saw the child, and behold, the baby cried. She had compassion on him, and said, “This is one of the Hebrews’ children.”
6她打开箱子,看见那孩子。孩子哭了,她就可怜他,说:「这是 希伯来 人的一个孩子。」
7Then his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, “Should I go and call a nurse for you from the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for you?”
7孩子的姊姊对法老的女儿说:「我去在 希伯来 妇人中叫一个奶妈来,为你奶这孩子,可以不可以?」
8Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Go.” The young woman went and called the child’s mother.
8法老的女儿说:「可以。」童女就去叫了孩子的母亲来。
9Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Take this child away, and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages.” The woman took the child, and nursed him.
9法老的女儿对她说:「你把这孩子抱去,为我奶他,我必给你工价。」妇人就抱了孩子去奶他。
10The child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. She named him Moses, and said, “Because I drew him out of the water.”
10孩子渐长,妇人把他带到法老的女儿那里,就作了她的儿子。她给孩子起名叫 摩西 ,意思说:「因我把他从水里拉出来。」
11In those days, when Moses had grown up, he went out to his brothers and saw their burdens. He saw an Egyptian striking a Hebrew, one of his brothers.
11后来, 摩西 长大,他出去到他弟兄那里,看他们的重担,见一个 埃及 人打 希伯来 人的一个弟兄。
12He looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no one, he killed the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
12他左右观看,见没有人,就把 埃及 人打死了,藏在沙土里。
13He went out the second day, and behold, two men of the Hebrews were fighting with each other. He said to him who did the wrong, “Why do you strike your fellow?”
13第二天他出去,见有两个 希伯来 人争斗,就对那欺负人的说:「你为什么打你同族的人呢?」
14He said, “Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you plan to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian?” Moses was afraid, and said, “Surely this thing is known.”
14那人说:「谁立你作我们的首领和审判官呢?难道你要杀我,像杀那 埃及 人吗?」 摩西 便惧怕,说:「这事必是被人知道了。」
15Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and lived in the land of Midian, and he sat down by a well.
15法老听见这事,就想杀 摩西 ,但 摩西 躲避法老,逃往 米甸 地居住。
16Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters. They came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock.
16一日,他在井旁坐下。 米甸 的祭司有七个女儿;她们来打水,打满了槽,要饮父亲的群羊。
17The shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
17有牧羊的人来,把她们赶走了, 摩西 却起来帮助她们,又饮了她们的群羊。
18When they came to Reuel, their father, he said, “How is it that you have returned so early today?”
18她们来到父亲 流珥 那里;他说:「今日你们为何来得这么快呢?」
19They said, “An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and moreover he drew water for us, and watered the flock.”
19她们说:「有一个 埃及 人救我们脱离牧羊人的手,并且为我们打水饮了群羊。」
20He said to his daughters, “Where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread.”
20他对女儿们说:「那个人在哪里?你们为什么撇下他呢?你们去请他来吃饭。」
21Moses was content to dwell with the man. He gave Moses Zipporah, his daughter.
21摩西 甘心和那人同住;那人把他的女儿 西坡拉 给 摩西 为妻。
22She bore a son, and he named him Gershom, for he said, “I have lived as a foreigner in a foreign land.”
22西坡拉 生了一个儿子, 摩西 给他起名叫 革舜 ,意思说:「因我在外邦作了寄居的。」
23In the course of those many days, the king of Egypt died, and the children of Israel sighed because of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up to God because of the bondage.
23过了多年, 埃及 王死了。 以色列 人因做苦工,就叹息哀求,他们的哀声达于 神。
24God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
24神听见他们的哀声,就记念他与 亚伯拉罕 、 以撒 、 雅各 所立的约。
25God saw the children of Israel, and God understood.
25神看顾 以色列 人,也知道他们的 苦情 。
