¹⁵ When Pharaoh heard of it, he sought to kill Moses. But ^(A)Moses fled from Pharaoh and stayed in the land of Midian. And he sat down by ^(B)a well.

¹⁶ Now the ^(C)priest of Midian had seven daughters, and ^(D)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 ^(E)watered their flock. ¹⁸ When they came home to their father ^(F)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 ^(G)watered the flock.” ²⁰ He said to his daughters, “Then where is he? Why have you left the man? Call him, that he may ^(H)eat bread.” ²¹ And Moses was content to dwell with the man, and he gave Moses his daughter ^(I)Zipporah. ²² She gave birth to a son, and he called his name ^(J)Gershom, for he said, “I have been a ^(K)sojourner^[a] in a foreign land.”

Jesus Anointed at Bethany

^6 (A)Now when Jesus was at ^(B)Bethany in the house of Simon the leper,^{[a] 7} a woman came up to him with an alabaster flask of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he reclined at table. ⁸ And when the disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, “Why this waste? ⁹ For this could have been sold for a large sum and ^(C)given to the poor.” ¹⁰ But ^(D)Jesus, aware of this, said to them, “Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a beautiful thing to me. ¹¹ For ^(E)you always have the poor with you, but ^(F)you will not always have me. ¹² In pouring this ointment on my body, she has done it ^(G)to prepare me for burial. ¹³ Truly, I say to you, wherever ^(H)this gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done will also be told ^(I)in memory of her.”
