Exodus 4:20-26

20And MosesH4872 tookH3947 his wifeH802 and his sonsH1121, and set them ridingH7392 upon an ass, and he returnedH7725 to the landH776 of EgyptH4714. And MosesH4872 tookH3947 the staffH4294 of 1GodH430 in his handH3027.

21And Jehovah saidH559 to MosesH4872, WhenH834 thou goest to returnH7725 to EgyptH4714, seeH7200 that thou do all the wondersH4159 before PharaohH6547 that I have putH7760 in thy handH3027. And I will harden his heartH3820, that he shall not let the peopleH5971 goH7971.

22And thou shalt sayH559 to PharaohH6547, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah: IsraelH3478 is my sonH1121, my firstbornH1060.

23And I sayH559 to thee, Let my sonH1121 goH7971, that he may serveH5647 me. And if thou refuseH3985 to let him goH7971, behold, I will killH2026 thy sonH1121, thy firstbornH1060.

24And it came to pass on the wayH1870, in the inn, that Jehovah came upon him, and soughtH1245 to slay him.

25Then ZipporahH6855 tookH3947 a stone and cutH3772 off the foreskinH6190 of her sonH1121, and cast it at his feetH7272, and saidH559, A bloody husband indeed art thou to me!

26And he let him goH7503. ThenH227 she saidH559, A bloody husband — because of the circumcision.
