24 At a camping place on the way to Egypt, the Lord met Moses and tried to kill him.
25-26 Then Zipporah, his wife, took a sharp stone, cut off the foreskin of her son, and touched Moses' feet with it. Because of the rite of circumcision she said to Moses, “You are a husband of blood to me.” And so the Lord spared Moses' life.
27 Meanwhile the Lord had said to Aaron, “Go into the desert to meet Moses.” So he went to meet him at the holy mountain; and when he met him, he kissed him.
28 Then Moses told Aaron everything that the Lord had said when he told him to return to Egypt; he also told him about the miracles which the Lord had ordered him to perform.
29 So Moses and Aaron went to Egypt and gathered all the Israelite leaders together.
30 Aaron told them everything that the Lord had said to Moses, and then Moses performed all the miracles in front of the people.
31 They believed, and when they heard that the Lord had come to them and had seen how they were being treated cruelly, they bowed down and worshipped.
