وَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَقْصَى الْمَدِينَةِ يَسْعَىٰ قَالَ يَا مُوسَىٰ إِنَّ الْمَلَأَ يَأْتَمِرُونَ بِكَ لِيَقْتُلُوكَ فَاخْرُجْ إِنِّي لَكَ مِنَ النَّاصِحِينَ

And there came a man running, from the farthest end of the city. He said: "O Musa! Verily, the chiefs are taking counsel together about you, to kill you, so escape. Truly, I am one of the good advisers to you.
(20)
(And there came a man) He is described as being a man because he had the courage to take a different route, a shorter route than those who were sent after Musa, so he reached Musa first and said to him: "O Musa,
إِنَّ الْمَلَأَ يَأْتَمِرُونَ بِكَ
(Verily, the chiefs are taking counsel together about you.)," meaning, 'they are consulting with one another about you.'
(to kill you, so escape.) means, from this land.
إِنِّي لَكَ مِنَ النَّاصِحِينَ
(Truly, I am one of the good advisers to you.)
