14. Then the anger of the Lord blazed against Moses; He said, Is there not Aaron your brother, the Levite? I know he can speak well. Also, he is coming out to meet you, and when he sees you, he will be overjoyed.
15. You must speak to him and put the words in his mouth; and I will be with your mouth and with his mouth and will teach you what you shall do.
16. He shall speak for you to the people, acting as a mouthpiece for you, and you shall be as God to him.
17. And you shall take this rod in your hand with which you shall work the signs [that prove I sent you].
18. And Moses went away and, returning to Jethro his father-in-law, said to him, Let me go back, I pray you, to my relatives in Egypt to see whether they are still alive. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace.
19. The Lord said to Moses in Midian, Go back to Egypt; for all the men who were seeking your life [for killing the Egyptian] are dead. [Exod. 2:11, 12.]
20. And Moses took his wife and his sons and set them on donkeys, and he returned to the land of Egypt; and Moses took the rod of God in his hand.
