Moses Tries to Help

¹¹ Moses ·grew and became a man [^Lgrew up]. One day he ·visited his people [^Lwent out among his brothers/relatives/kin] and saw ·that they were forced to work very hard [^Ltheir hard/forced labor]. He saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew man, one of Moses’ ·own people [^Lbrothers; relatives; kin]. ¹² Moses looked all around and saw that no one was watching, so he killed the Egyptian and hid his body in the sand.

¹³ The ·next [^Lsecond] day Moses returned and saw two Hebrew men fighting each other. He said to the one that was in the wrong, “Why are you hitting one of your ·own people [friends; neighbors]?”
