And Pharaoh heard of it and went about to slay Moses: but he fled from Pharaoh and dwelt in the land of Midian, and he sat down by a well's side.

The priest of Midian had seven daughters which came and drew water and filled the troughs, for to water their father's sheep.

Moses kept the sheep of Jethro his father-in-law, priest of Midian, and he drove the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, Horeb.

And the LORD said unto Moses in Midian, "Return again into Egypt for they are dead which went about to kill thee."

Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses' father-in-law, heard of all that God had done unto Moses and to Israel his people; how that the LORD had brought Israel out of Egypt.
