Exodus 4:18–31 · BSB
4:18 Then Moses went back to his father-in-law Jethro and said to him, “Please let me return to my brothers in Egypt to see if they are still alive.” “Go in peace,” Jethro replied.
4:19 Now the LORD had said to Moses in Midian, “Go back to Egypt, for all the men who sought to kill you are dead.”
4:20 So Moses took his wife and sons, put them on a donkey, and headed back to Egypt. And he took the staff of God in his hand.
4:21 The LORD instructed Moses, “When you go back to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders that I have put within your power. But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go.
4:22 Then tell Pharaoh that this is what the LORD says: ‘Israel is My firstborn son,
4:23 and I told you to let My son go so that he may worship Me. But since you have refused to let him go, behold, I will kill your firstborn son!’”
4:24 Now at a lodging place along the way, the LORD met Moses and was about to kill him.
4:25 But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son’s foreskin, and touched it to Moses’ feet. “Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me,” she said.
4:26 So the LORD let him alone. (When she said, “bridegroom of blood,” she was referring to the circumcision.)
4:27 Meanwhile, the LORD had said to Aaron, “Go and meet Moses in the wilderness.” So he went and met Moses at the mountain of God and kissed him.
4:28 And Moses told Aaron everything the LORD had sent him to say, and all the signs He had commanded him to perform.
4:29 Then Moses and Aaron went and assembled all the elders of the Israelites,
4:30 and Aaron relayed everything the LORD had said to Moses. And Moses performed the signs before the people,
4:31 and they believed. And when they heard that the LORD had attended to the Israelites and had seen their affliction, they bowed down and worshiped.
