Exodus 2:18-21

New International Version

¹⁸ When the girls returned to Reuel^(A) their father, he asked them, “Why have you returned so early today?”

¹⁹ They answered, “An Egyptian rescued us from the shepherds. He even drew water for us and watered the flock.”

²⁰ “And where is he?” Reuel asked his daughters. “Why did you leave him? Invite him to have something to eat.”^(B)

²¹ Moses agreed to stay with the man, who gave his daughter Zipporah^(C) to Moses in marriage.
