Exodus 4:23-31 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

23. I told you: Let My son go so that he may worship Me, but you refused to let him go. Now I will kill your firstborn son! ”

24. On the trip, at an overnight campsite, it happened that the Lord confronted him and sought to put him to death.

25. So Zipporah took a flint, cut off her son’s foreskin, and threw it at Moses’ feet. Then she said, “You are a bridegroom of blood to me! ”

26. So He let him alone. At that time she said, “You are a bridegroom of blood,” referring to the circumcision.

27. Now the Lord had said to Aaron, “Go and meet Moses in the wilderness.” So he went and met him at the mountain of God and kissed him.

28. Moses told Aaron everything the Lord had sent him to say, and about all the signs He had commanded him to do.

29. Then Moses and Aaron went and assembled all the elders of the Israelites.

30. Aaron repeated everything the Lord had said to Moses and performed the signs before the people.

31. The people believed, and when they heard that the Lord had paid attention to them and that He had seen their misery, they bowed down and worshiped.
