Exodus 2:16-22
16seven daughters of the priest of Midian came. They drew water and filled the troughs to water their father’s sheep.
17But some shepherds came and chased them away. So Moses got up, came to their defense, and then watered their sheep.
18When they came back to their father Reuel, he asked them, “Why have you come home so early today?”
19They answered, “An Egyptian rescued us from some shepherds. He even drew water for us and watered the sheep.”
20Reuel asked his daughters, “Where is he? Why did you leave the man there? Go, invite him to supper.”
21Moses decided to stay with the man. So Reuel gave his daughter Zipporah to Moses as his wife.
22She gave birth to a son. Moses named him Gershom [Foreigner], because he said, “I was a foreigner living in another country.”
