22 And you must say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus says Yahweh, “Israel is my son, my firstborn.”
23 And I said to you, “Release my son and let him serve me,” but you refused to release him. Look, I am about to kill your son, your firstborn.’ ”
24 And on the way, at the place of overnight lodging, Yahweh encountered him and sought to kill him.
25 But Zipporah took a flint knife, and she cut off the foreskin of her son, and she touched his feet, and she said, “Yes, you are a bridegroom of blood to me.”
26 And he left him alone. At that time she said, “A bridegroom of blood,” because of the circumcision.
27 And Yahweh said to Aaron, “Go to the desert to meet Moses.” And he went and encountered him at the mountain of God and kissed him.
28 And Moses told Aaron all the words of Yahweh, who had sent him—and all the signs that he had commanded him.
