Exodus 2:16-21

English Standard Version

¹⁶ Now the ^(A)priest of Midian had seven daughters, and ^(B)they came and drew water and filled the troughs to water their father's flock. ¹⁷ The shepherds came and drove them away, but Moses stood up and saved them, and ^(C)watered their flock. ¹⁸ When they came home to their father ^(D)Reuel, he said, “How is it that you have come home so soon today?” ¹⁹ They said, “An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds and even drew water for us and ^(E)watered the flock.” ²⁰ He said to his daughters, “Then where is he? Why have you left the man? Call him, that he may ^(F)eat bread.” ²¹ And Moses was content to dwell with the man, and he gave Moses his daughter ^(G)Zipporah.
