Exodus 4:18-31

Exodus 4:18-31

[18] And Moses  and returned  his father in law,  and said  I pray thee, and return  unto my brethren  which are in Egypt,  and see  whether they be yet  alive.  And Jethro  said  to Moses,  in peace.  [19] And the LORD  said  unto Moses  in Midian,  return  into Egypt:  for all the men  are dead  which sought  thy life.  [20] And Moses  took  his wife  and his sons,  and set  them upon an ass,  and he returned  to the land  of Egypt:  and Moses  took  the rod  of God  in his hand.  [21] And the LORD  said  unto Moses,  to return  into Egypt,  see  that thou do  all those wonders  before  Pharaoh,  which I have put  in thine hand:  but I will harden  his heart,  that he shall not let the people  go.  [22] And thou shalt say  unto Pharaoh,  Thus saith  the LORD,  Israel  is my son,  even my firstborn:  [23] And I say  unto thee, Let my son  go,  that he may serve  me: and if thou refuse  to let him go,  behold, I will slay  thy son,  even thy firstborn.  [24] And it came to pass by the way  in the inn,  that the LORD  met  him, and sought  to kill  [25] Then Zipporah  took  a sharp stone,  and cut off  the foreskin  of her son,  and cast  it at his feet,  and said,  Surely a bloody  husband  art thou to me. [26] So he let him go:  then she said,  A bloody  husband  thou art, because of the circumcision.  [27] And the LORD  said  to Aaron,  into the wilderness  to meet  Moses.  and met  him in the mount  of God,  and kissed  him. [28] And Moses  told  Aaron  all the words  of the LORD  who had sent  him, and all the signs  which he had commanded  [29] And Moses  and Aaron  and gathered together  all the elders  of the children  of Israel:  [30] And Aaron  spake  all the words  which the LORD  had spoken  unto Moses,  and did  the signs  in the sight  of the people.  [31] And the people  believed:  and when they heard  that the LORD  had visited  the children  of Israel,  and that he had looked  upon their affliction,  then they bowed their heads  and worshipped.
