Exodus 2:18-22

18When they cameH935 to their fatherH1 1ReuelH7467, he saidH559, “WhyH4069 have you comeH935 back so soonH4116 todayH3117?” 19They saidH559, “An EgyptianH4713 savedH5337 us from 2the shepherdsH7462, and whatH1571 isH1571 moreH1571, he evenH1802 drewH1802 waterH1802 for us and wateredH8248 the flockH6629.” 20So he saidH559 to his daughtersH1323, “WhereH335 is he then? WhyH4100 is it that you have leftH5800 the manH376 behindH5800? InviteH7121 him 3to have somethingH3899 to eatH398.” 21And 4MosesH4872 wasH2974 willingH2974 to liveH3427 with the manH376. And he gaveH5414 his daughterH1323 5ZipporahH6855 to MosesH4872. 22Then she gaveH3205 birthH3205 to 6a sonH1121, and he namedH7121H8034 him 7GershomH1647, for he saidH559, “I have beenH1961 8a strangerH1616 in a foreignH5237 landH776.”
