Exodus 2:16-22

16Now the priestH3548 of MidianH4080 had sevenH7651 daughtersH1323: and they cameH935 and drew waterH8248, and filledH4390 the troughs to waterH8248 their father’sH1 flockH6629. 17And the shepherdsH7462 cameH935 and droveH1644 them awayH1644; but MosesH4872 stoodH6965 up and helped them, and wateredH8248 their flockH6629. 18And when they cameH935 to ReuelH7467 their fatherH1, he saidH559, How is it that ye are comeH935 so soon to-day? 19And they saidH559, An EgyptianH4713 deliveredH5337 us out of the handH3027 of the shepherdsH7462, and moreover he drew waterH8248 for us, and wateredH8248 the flockH6629. 20And he saidH559 unto his daughtersH1323, And whereH346 is he? whyH4100 is it that ye have leftH5800 the manH376? callH7121 him, that he may eatH398 breadH3899. 21And MosesH4872 was content to dwellH3427 with the manH376: and he gaveH5414 MosesH4872 ZipporahH6855 his daughterH1323. 22And she bare a sonH1121, and he calledH7121 his nameH8034 GershomH1647; for he saidH559, I have beenH1961 a sojournerH1616 in a foreignH5237 landH776.
