- 1And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
- 2And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.
- 3And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch; and she put the child therein, and laid it in the flags by the river's brink.

- 16Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father's flock.
- 17And the shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
- 18And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that ye are come so soon to-day?
- 19And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and moreover he drew water for us, and watered the flock.
- 20And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? Why is it that ye have left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread.
- 21And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
- 22And she bare a son, and he called his name Gershom; for he said, I have been a sojourner in a foreign land.
- 23And it came to pass in the course of those many days, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.
