If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you must state who did the action, it is clear from the context that it was the Egyptian who is mentioned later in the verse. Alternate translation: [seeing an Egyptian mistreating an Israelite]

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [avenged him by striking the Egyptian who was oppressing him]

Stephen assumes that his listeners will know that Moses hit the Egyptian so hard that he died. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: [striking and killing the Egyptian]

OET (OET-RV) When he noticed one of them being mistreated, he retaliated and while defending the oppressed man, he struck and killed the Mitsri (Egyptian).
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
