Exodus 18:1-6 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

1. Now Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses' father-in-law, heard of all that God had done for Moses and for Israel His people, how the Lord had brought Israel out of Egypt.

2. Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, took Moses' wife Zipporah, after he had sent her away,

3. and her two sons, of whom one was named Gershom, for Moses said, "I have been a sojourner in a foreign land."

4. The other was named Eliezer, for he said, "The God of my father was my help, and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh."

5. Then Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, came with his sons and his wife to Moses in the wilderness where he was camped, at the mount of God.

6. He sent word to Moses, "I, your father-in-law Jethro, am coming to you with your wife and her two sons with her."
