Exodus 18:1-10
1Now JethroH3503, the priestH3548 of MidianH4080, Moses’H4872 father-in-law, heardH8085 of all that GodH430 had done for MosesH4872, and for IsraelH3478 his peopleH5971, how that Jehovah had broughtH3318 IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714.
2And JethroH3503, Moses’H4872 father-in-law, tookH3947 ZipporahH6855, Moses’H4872 wifeH802, after he had sent her away,
3and her twoH8147 sonsH1121; of whom the nameH8034 of the oneH259 was GershomH1647; for he saidH559, I have beenH1961 a sojournerH1616 in a foreignH5237 landH776:
4and the nameH8034 of the other was EliezerH461; forhe said, The GodH430 of my fatherH1 was my helpH5828, and deliveredH5337 me from the swordH2719 of PharaohH6547.
5And JethroH3503, Moses’H4872 father-in-law, cameH935 with his sonsH1121 and his wifeH802 unto MosesH4872 into the wildernessH4057 whereH834 he was encampedH2583, at the mount of GodH430:
6and he saidH559 unto MosesH4872, I, thy father-in-law JethroH3503, am comeH935 unto thee, and thy wifeH802, and her twoH8147 sonsH1121 with her.
7And MosesH4872 wentH3318 out to meet his father-in-law, and did obeisance, and kissedH5401 him: and they askedH7592 each other of their welfareH7965; and they cameH935 into the tentH168.
8And MosesH4872 told his father-in-law all that Jehovah had done unto PharaohH6547 and to the Egyptians for Israel’s sake, all the travail that had comeH4672 upon them by the wayH1870, and how Jehovah deliveredH5337 them.
9And JethroH3503 rejoicedH2302 for all the goodness which Jehovah had done to IsraelH3478, in that he had deliveredH5337 them out of the handH3027 of the Egyptians.
10And JethroH3503 saidH559, BlessedH1288 be Jehovah, who hath deliveredH5337 you out of the handH3027 of the Egyptians, and out of the handH3027 of PharaohH6547; who hath deliveredH5337 the peopleH5971 from under the handH3027 of the Egyptians.
