New Testament

Exodus 2:19-25 Modern English Version (MEV)

19. And they said, “An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds and also drew water for us and watered the flock.”

20. He said to his daughters, “So where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him so that he may eat bread.”

21. Moses was content to dwell with the man, and he gave Zipporah, his daughter, to Moses.

22. Then she gave birth to a son, and he called his name Gershom, for he said, “I have been a sojourner in a foreign land.”

23. In the passing of time the king of Egypt died. And the children of Israel sighed because of the bondage, and they cried out, and their cry came up to God on account of the bondage.

24. God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

25. God looked on the children of Israel, and God had concern for them.
