15Now when Pharaoh had news of this, he would have put Moses to death. But Moses went in flight from Pharaoh into the land of Midian: and he took his seat by a water-spring.
16Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came to get water for their father's flock.
17And the keepers of the sheep came up and were driving them away; but Moses got up and came to their help, watering their flock for them.
18And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that you have come back so quickly today?
19And they said, An Egyptian came to our help against the keepers of sheep and got water for us and gave it to the flock.
20And he said to his daughters, Where is he? why have you let the man go? make him come in and give him a meal.
21And Moses was happy to go on living with the man; and he gave his daughter Zipporah to Moses.
