*
Now when Pharaoh heard this thing ,
he sought to slay Moses .
But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh ,
and dwelt in the land of Midian :
and he sat down by a well .
*
Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters :
and they came and drew water ,
and filled the troughs to water their father '
s flock .
*
And the shepherds came and drove them away :
but Moses stood up and helped them ,
and watered their flock .
*
And when they came to Reuel their father ,
he said ,
How is it that ye are come so soon to day ?
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
And Moses was content to dwell with the man :
and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter .
