And Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, took in Moses’ wife (B)Zipporah, after he had sent her away, and her (C)two sons, [a]one of whom was named Gershom, for Moses said, “I have been (D)a stranger in a foreign land.” And [b]the other was named [c](E)Eliezer, for he said, “(F)The God of my father was my help, and saved me from the sword of Pharaoh.”
