When they came to Reuel their father, he said, "How is it that you have come so soon today?"
19
And they said, "An Egyptian delivered us from the hand of the shepherds, and he also drew enough water for us and watered the flock."
20
So he said to his daughters, "And where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread."
21
Then Moses was content to live with the man, and he gave Zipporah his daughter to Moses.
22
And she bore him a son, and he called his name Gershom; for he said, "I have been a stranger in a foreign land."
23
Now it happened in the process of time that the king of Egypt died. Then the children of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry came up to God because of the bondage.
24
So God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
25
And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God acknowledged them.
