Exodus 18:1-6 ▼

1 Now Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses’ father-in-law, heard of all that God had done for Moses and for Israel His people, how Yahweh had brought Israel out of Egypt.

2 And Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, took Moses’ wife Zipporah, after he had sent her away,

3 and her two sons, of whom one was named Gershom, for Moses said, “I have been a sojourner in a foreign land.”

4 And the other was named Eliezer, for he said, “The God of my father was my help and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh.”

5 Then Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, came with his sons and his wife to Moses in the wilderness where he was camped, at the mount of God.

6 And he sent word to Moses, “I, your father-in-law Jethro, am coming to you with your wife and her two sons with her.”
