17 And the shepherds came and drove them away, but Moses stood up and came to their rescue and watered their flock.
18 And they came to Reuel, their father, and he said, “Why have you come so quickly today?”
19 And they said, “An Egyptian man delivered us from the hand of the shepherds, and he even drew water for us and watered the flock.”
20 And he said to his daughters, “Where is he? Why then have you left the man? Call him so that he can eat some food.”
21 And Moses agreed to stay with the man, and he gave Zipporah his daughter to Moses.
22 And she bore a son, and he called his name Gershom because he said, “I am an alien in a foreign land.”
23 And then during those many days, the king of Egypt died, and the Israelites groaned because of the work, and they cried out, and their cry for help because of the work went up to God.
