02:002:016 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came
and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father's
flock.
02:002:017 And the shepherds came and drove them away: but Moses stood up
and helped them, and watered their flock.
02:002:018 And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it
that ye are come so soon to day?
02:002:019 And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the
shepherds, and also drew water enough for us, and watered the
flock.
02:002:020 And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? why is it
that ye have left the man? call him, that he may eat bread.
02:002:021 And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses
Zipporah his daughter.
02:002:022 And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he
said, I have been a stranger in a strange land.
02:002:023 And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt
died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the
bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by
reason of the bondage.

priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the
desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb.
02:003:002 And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire
out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the
bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.

sight, why the bush is not burnt.
02:003:004 And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called

And he said, Here am I.
02:003:005 And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off
thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.
02:003:006 Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of
Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid
his face; for he was afraid to look upon God.
02:003:007 And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my
