Exodus 18:2-4-20 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

2-4. In the meantime, Moses had sent his wife Zipporah and her two sons to stay with Jethro, and he had welcomed them. Moses was still a foreigner in Midian when his first son was born, and so Moses said, “I'll name him Gershom.”When his second son was born, Moses said, “I'll name him Eliezer, because the God my father worshipped has saved me from the king of Egypt.”

7. When they arrived, Moses went out and bowed down in front of Jethro, then kissed him. After they had greeted each other, they went into the tent,

8. where Moses told him everything the Lord had done to protect Israel against the Egyptians and their king. He also told him how the Lord had helped them in all their troubles.

9. Jethro was so pleased to hear this good news about what the Lord had done,

20. and you should teach them God's laws and show them what they must do to live right.
