Exodus 4:21-28
English Standard Version
21 And the Lord said to Moses, “When you go back to Egypt, see that you do before Pharaoh all the (A)miracles that I have put in your power. But (B)I will harden his heart, so that he will not let the people go. 22 Then you shall say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus says the Lord, (C)Israel is my (D)firstborn son, 23 and I say to you, “Let my son go that he may serve me.” If you refuse to let him go, behold, I (E)will kill your firstborn son.’”
24 At a lodging place on the way (F)the Lord met him and (G)sought to put him to death. 25 Then (H)Zipporah took a (I)flint and cut off her son's foreskin and touched Moses'[a] feet with it and said, “Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me!” 26 So he let him alone. It was then that she said, “A bridegroom of blood,” because of the circumcision.
27 The Lord said to Aaron, “Go into the wilderness (J)to meet Moses.” So he went and met him at the (K)mountain of God and kissed him. 28 And Moses (L)told Aaron all the words of the Lord with which he had sent him to speak, and all (M)the signs that he had commanded him to do.
