Exodus 18:1-5

1Moses’s father-in-law, Jethro, the priest of Midian, heard about everything that God had done for Moses and for God’s people Israel when the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt.

2Now Jethro, Moses’s father-in-law, had taken in Zipporah, Moses’s wife, after he had sent her back,

3along with her two sons, one of whom was named Gershom (because Moses had said, “I have been a resident alien in a foreign land”)

4and the other Eliezer (because he had said, “The God of my father was my helper and rescued me from Pharaoh’s sword”).

5Moses’s father-in-law, Jethro, along with Moses’s wife and sons, came to him in the wilderness where he was camped at the mountain of God.
