Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters. And they came and drew water, and they filled the troughs to water their father's flock.

And Moses agreed to live with the man, and he gave Zipporah his daughter to Moses.

Now Moses was with the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian. And he led the flock to the back of the wilderness, and came to Horeb, the mountain of God.

So Moses went and returned to Jethro his father-in-law, and said to him, Please let me go and return to my brethren who are in Egypt, and see whether they are still alive. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace.

And Moses said to Hobab the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law, We are setting out for the place of which Jehovah has said, I will give it to you. Come with us, and we will treat you well; for Jehovah has promised good to Israel.

Now Heber the Kenite, of the children of Hobab the father-in-law of Moses, separated himself from the Kenites and pitched his tent near the plain at Zaanaim, near Kedesh.

My soul shall make its boast in Jehovah; the lowly shall hear and be glad.

i1 [To the chief Musician. For the sons of Korah. Maschil.] i0 par We have heard with our ears, O God; our fathers have told us the work which You did in their days, in the days of old.

You are the Mighty God who does wonders; you have declared Your strength among the peoples.

You have with Your arm redeemed Your people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah

We will not hide them from their children, recounting to the following generation the praises of Jehovah, and His strength and His wonderful works that He has done.

Remember His marvelous works which He has done, His wonders, and the justice of His mouth,

He brought out His people with joy, His elect with gladness.

Who can utter the mighty acts of Jehovah? Who can proclaim all His praise?

Nevertheless He delivered them for His name's sake, that He might make His mighty power known.

And it shall be to Me a name of joy, a praise and an honor before all the nations of the earth, who shall hear all the good that I do to them. And they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and for all the welfare that I am bringing to it.

Thus says Jehovah of Hosts: In those days ten men out of all languages of the nations shall take hold and grasp the sleeve of a man who is a Jew, saying, Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.

But they were hearing only, He who formerly persecuted us now preaches the faith which he once tried to destroy.

And they glorified God in me.

This Moses whom they rejected, saying, Who made you a ruler and a judge? is the one God sent to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the Angel who appeared to him in the bush.

He led them out, after he had shown wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness forty years.

And when they had come and gathered the church together, they reported all that God had done with them, and that He had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.

Then all the multitude kept silent and listened to Barnabas and Paul recounting how many signs and wonders God had worked through them among the Gentiles.

And when he had greeted them, he related one by one the things which God had worked among the Gentiles through his ministry.

And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord. And they said to him, You see, brother, how many countless Jews there are who believe, and they also are all zealous for the Law;

For I will not dare to speak of anything which Christ has not accomplished through me, unto the obedience of the Gentiles in word and deed;

And Jehovah said to Moses: See, I have made you as a god to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.

And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply My signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt.

And the Egyptians shall know that I am Jehovah when I stretch forth My hand upon Egypt and bring out the children of Israel from among them.

And Moses was eighty years old and Aaron eighty-three years old when they spoke to Pharaoh.

When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, Show a sign for yourselves, then you shall say to Aaron, Take your staff and cast it before Pharaoh, and let it become a serpent.

And Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers. So the magicians of Egypt, they also did so with their enchantments.

And Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he did not heed them, as Jehovah had said.

Go to Pharaoh in the morning, when he goes out to the water, and you shall stand by the river's bank to meet him; and the staff which was turned to a serpent you shall take in your hand.

For we have heard how Jehovah dried up the water of the Red Sea for you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites who were on the other side of the Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom you utterly destroyed.

So they said to him: Your servants have come from a very distant land, because of the name of Jehovah your God; for we have heard of His fame, and all that He has done in Egypt,

You gave signs and wonders upon Pharaoh, upon all his servants, and upon all the people of his land. For You knew that they had acted proudly against them. So You made a name for Yourself, as it is this day.

And You divided the sea before them, so that they went through the midst of the sea on the dry land; and those pursuing them You threw into the deep, as a stone into the mighty waters.

You are the Mighty God who does wonders; you have declared Your strength among the peoples.

You have with Your arm redeemed Your people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah

He made a path for His anger; He did not spare their soul from death, but gave their life over to the plague,

But He made His own people go forth like sheep, and guided them in the wilderness like a flock;

He also destroyed all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their vigor.

Egypt was glad when they departed, for the fear of them had fallen upon them.

They asked, and He brought quail, and satisfied them with the bread of Heaven.

Nevertheless He delivered them for His name's sake, that He might make His mighty power known.

He delivered them from the hand of him who hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

To Him who struck Egypt in their firstborn, for His mercy is eternal;

with a strong hand, and with an outstretched arm, for His mercy is eternal;

and made Israel pass through the midst of it, for His mercy is eternal;

To Him who led His people through the wilderness, for His mercy is eternal;

Then He remembered the days of old, Moses and His people, saying, Where is He who brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of His flock? Where is He who put His Holy Spirit within him;

He led them through the deep, like a horse in the wilderness, so that they might not stumble.
