And Moses
<04872>

went
<03212> (8799)

and returned
<07725> (8799)

to Jethro
<03500>

his father in law
<02859> (8802)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Let me go
<03212> (8799)_,

I pray thee, and return
<07725> (8799)

unto my brethren
<0251>

which [are] in Egypt
<04714>_,

and see
<07200> (8799)

whether they be yet
<05750>

alive
<02416>_.

And Jethro
<03503>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Moses
<04872>_,

Go
<03212> (8798)

in peace
<07965>_.

{Jethro: Heb. Jether}

4:19

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Moses
<04872>

in Midian
<04080>_,

Go
<03212> (8798)_,

return
<07725> (8798)

into Egypt
<04714>_:

for all the men
<0582>

are dead
<04191> (8804)

which sought
<01245> (8764)

thy life
<05315>_.

4:20

And Moses
<04872>

took
<03947> (8799)

his wife
<0802>

and his sons
<01121>_,

and set
<07392> (8686)

them upon an ass
<02543>_,

and he returned
<07725> (8799)

to the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_:

and Moses
<04872>

took
<03947> (8799)

the rod
<04294>

of God
<0430>

in his hand
<03027>_.

4:21

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Moses
<04872>_,

When thou goest
<03212> (8800)

to return
<07725> (8800)

into Egypt
<04714>_,

see
<07200> (8798)

that thou do
<06213> (8804)

all those wonders
<04159>

before
<06440>

Pharaoh
<06547>_,

which I have put
<07760> (8804)

in thine hand
<03027>_:

but I will harden
<02388> (8762)

his heart
<03820>_,

that he shall not let the people
<05971>

go
<07971> (8762)_.

4:22

And thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)

unto Pharaoh
<06547>_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Israel
<03478>

[is] my son
<01121>_,

[even] my firstborn
<01060>_:

4:23

And I say
<0559> (8799)

unto thee, Let my son
<01121>

go
<07971> (8761)_,

that he may serve
<05647> (8799)

me: and if thou refuse
<03985> (8762)

to let him go
<07971> (8763)_,

behold, I will slay
<02026> (8802)

thy son
<01121>_,

[even] thy firstborn
<01060>_.

4:24

And it came to pass by the way
<01870>

in the inn
<04411>_,

that the LORD
<03068>

met
<06298> (8799)

him, and sought
<01245> (8762)

to kill
<04191> (8687)

him.

4:25

Then Zipporah
<06855>

took
<03947> (8799)

a sharp stone
<06864>_,

and cut off
<03772> (8799)

the foreskin
<06190>

of her son
<01121>_,

and cast
<05060> (8686)

[it] at his feet
<07272>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Surely a bloody
<01818>

husband
<02860>

[art] thou to me. {sharp...: or, knife} {cast...: Heb. made it touch}

4:26

So he let him go
<07503> (8799)_:

then she said
<0559> (8804)_,

A bloody
<01818>

husband
<02860>

[thou art], because of the circumcision
<04139>_.

4:27

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Aaron
<0175>_,

Go
<03212> (8798)

into the wilderness
<04057>

to meet
<07125> (8800)

Moses
<04872>_.

And he went
<03212> (8799)_,

and met
<06298> (8799)

him in the mount
<02022>

of God
<0430>_,

and kissed
<05401> (8799)

him.

4:28

And Moses
<04872>

told
<05046> (8686)

Aaron
<0175>

all the words
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

who had sent
<07971> (8804)

him, and all the signs
<0226>

which he had commanded
<06680> (8765)

him.

4:29

And Moses
<04872>

and Aaron
<0175>

went
<03212> (8799)

and gathered together
<0622> (8799)

all the elders
<02205>

of the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_:

4:30

And Aaron
<0175>

spake
<01696> (8762)

all the words
<01697>

which the LORD
<03068>

had spoken
<01696> (8765)

unto Moses
<04872>_,

and did
<06213> (8799)

the signs
<0226>

in the sight
<05869>

of the people
<05971>_.

4:31

And the people
<05971>

believed
<0539> (8686)_:

and when they heard
<08085> (8799)

that the LORD
<03068>

had visited
<06485> (8804)

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and that he had looked
<07200> (8804)

upon their affliction
<06040>_,

then they bowed their heads
<06915> (8799)

and worshipped
<07812> (8691)_.
