20 “So where is he? ” he asked his daughters. “Why then did you leave the man behind? Invite him to eat dinner.”
21 Moses agreed to stay with the man, and he gave his daughter Zipporah to Moses in marriage.
22 She gave birth to a son whom he named Gershom, for he said, “I have been a foreigner in a foreign land.”
23 After a long time, the king of Egypt died. The Israelites groaned because of their difficult labor, and they cried out; and their cry for help ascended to God because of the difficult labor.
24 So God heard their groaning, and He remembered His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
25 God saw the Israelites, and He took notice.
