And it came to pass, when Moses lifted up his hand, Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hands, Amalek prevailed.

Then Jethro, Moses father-in-law, took his daughter Zipporah, Moses wife, after he had sent her back,

And Jethro, Moses father-in-law, came with his sons and his wife to Moses in the wilderness, where he encamped at the mountain of God;

And Moses went out to meet his father-in-law, and did obeisance and kissed him, and they asked each other of their welfare; and they went into the tent.

And Moses told his father-in-law all that the LORD had done to Pharaoh and the Egyptians for Israels sake, and all the travail that they had suffered on the journey, and how the LORD had delivered them.

And Jethro said, Blessed be the LORD, who has delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians and out of the hand of Pharaoh, for he has delivered his people from under the rule of the Egyptians.

And Moses said to the people, Fear not; for God is come to prove you, that his worship may be before your faces, and that you may not sin.
