21 Moses agreed to stay with the man, and he gave his daughter Zipporah to Moses in marriage.

22 Later she gave birth to a son, and Moses named him Gershom, because he used to say, |I became an alien in a foreign land.|

23 The king of Egypt eventually died, and the Israelis groaned because of the bondage. They cried out, and their cry for deliverance from slavery ascended to God.

24 God heard their groaning and remembered his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

25 God watched the Israelis and took notice of them.
