Exodus 4:18-31

Then Moses went back to his father-in-law, Jethro, and said to him, “Please let me return to my relatives in Egypt and see if they are still living.” Jethro said to Moses, “Go in peace.” Now in Midian the LORD told Moses, “Return to Egypt, for all the men who wanted to kill you are dead.”  So Moses took his wife and sons, put them on a donkey, and returned to the land of Egypt. And Moses took God’s staff  in his hand. The LORD instructed Moses, “When you go back to Egypt, make sure you do before Pharaoh all the wonders that I have put within your power. But I will harden his heart  , so that he won’t let the people go. And you will say to Pharaoh: This is what the LORD says: Israel is my firstborn son.  I told you: Let my son go so that he may worship me, but you refused to let him go. Look, I am about to kill your firstborn son! ”  On the trip, at an overnight campsite, it happened that the LORD confronted him and intended to put him to death. So Zipporah took a flint, cut off her son’s foreskin, threw it at Moses’s feet, and said, “You are a bridegroom of blood to me! ”  So he let him alone. At that time she said, “You are a bridegroom of blood,” referring to the circumcision. Now the LORD had said to Aaron, “Go and meet Moses in the wilderness.” So he went and met him at the mountain of God and kissed him.  Moses told Aaron everything the LORD had sent him to say, and about all the signs he had commanded him to do. Then Moses and Aaron went and assembled all the elders of the Israelites. Aaron repeated everything the LORD had said to Moses and performed the signs before the people. The people believed, and when they heard that the LORD had paid attention  to them and that he had seen their misery,  they knelt low and worshiped.
