Exodus 2:15-18 English Standard Version (ESV)

15. When Pharaoh heard of it, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from Pharaoh and stayed in the land of Midian. And he sat down by a well.

16. Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters, and they came and drew water and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock.

17. The shepherds came and drove them away, but Moses stood up and saved them, and watered their flock.

18. When they came home to their father Reuel, he said, “How is it that you have come home so soon today?”
