Exodus 2:16-22 - Moses Marries Zipporah
16 Now a priest of Midian had seven daughters, and they came and began to draw water and fill the troughs in order to water their father's flock. 17 When some shepherds came and drove them away, Moses came up and defended them and then watered their flock. 18 So when they came home to their father Reuel, he asked, "Why have you come home so early today?" 19 They said, "An Egyptian man rescued us from the shepherds, and he actually drew water for us and watered the flock!"
20 He said to his daughters, "So where is he? Why in the world did you leave the man? Call him, so that he may eat a meal with us."
21 Moses agreed to stay with the man, and he gave his daughter Zipporah to Moses in marriage. 22 When she bore a son, Moses named him Gershom, for he said, "I have become a resident foreigner in a foreign land."
