THE RETURN TO EGYPT
15  The  men  took  this  gift, dou ble  the  amount 
 of sil ver,  and Ben ja min. They im me di ate ly 
 went  down  to  Egypt  and  stood be fore Jo seph. 16  When Jo seph  saw Ben ja min  with  them, 
 he  said  to  his stew ard, “ Take  the  men  to  my 
 house. Slaugh ter  an an i mal  and pre pare  it, 
 for  they  will  eat  with  me  at  noon.” 17  The  man 
 did  as Jo seph  had  said  and  brought  them  to 
Jo seph’s  house. 18  But  the  men  were  afraid be cause  they 
 were tak en  to Jo seph’s  house. They  said, “ We 
 have  been  brought  here be cause  of  the sil ver 
 that  was re turned  in  our  bags  the  first  time. They in tend  to over pow er  us,  seize  us,  make 
 us  slaves,  and  take  our don keys.” 19  So  they 
ap proached Jo seph’s stew ard a  and  spoke  to 
 him  at  the door way  of  the  house. 20  They  said, “ My  lord,  we real ly  did  come 
 down  here  the  first  time  only  to  buy  food. 21  When  we  came  to  the  place  where  we  lodged 
 for  the  night  and  opened  our  bags  of  grain, 
 each  one’s sil ver  was  at  the  top  of  his  bag! It 
 was  the  full  amount  of  our sil ver,  and  we  have 
 brought  it  back  with  us. 22  We  have  brought 
ad di tion al sil ver  with  us  to  buy  food. We  don’t 
 know  who  put  our sil ver  in  the  bags.”
23  Then  the stew ard  said, “ May  you  be  well. Don’t  be  afraid. Your  God  and  the  God  of  your 
fa ther  must  have  put trea sure  in  your  bags. I 
re ceived  your sil ver.”  Then  he  brought Sim-
e on  out  to  them. 24  The stew ard  brought  the 
 men  into Jo seph’s  house,  gave  them wa ter  to 
 wash  their  feet,  and  got  feed  for  their don keys. 25  Since  the  men  had  heard  that  they  were go ing 
 to  eat  a  meal  there,  they pre pared  their  gift 
 for Jo seph’s ar riv al  at  noon. 26  When Jo seph 
 came  home,  they  brought  him  the  gift  they 
 had car ried  into  the  house,  and  they  bowed 
 to  the  ground be fore  him. 27  He  asked  if  they  were  well,  and  he  said,

an i mals  and  go  on  back  to  the  land  of Ca naan. 18  Get  your fa ther  and  your fam i lies,  and  come

 and  bring  your fa ther  here. 20  Do  not  be con-
cerned  about  your be long ings,  for  the  best  of 
 all  the  land  of  Egypt  is  yours.’ ”

 them wag ons  as Pha raoh  had com mand ed,

 clothes,  but  he  gave Ben ja min  three hun dred

rah  and  the sec ond  whose  name  was  Puah  
—   16 “ When  you  help  the He brew wom en

 had  told  them;  they  let  the  boys  live. 18  So  the 
 king  of  Egypt sum moned  the mid wives  and 
 asked  them, “ Why  have  you  done  this  and  let 
 the  boys  live? ”
19  The mid wives  said  to Pha raoh, “ The He-
brew wom en  are  not  like  the Egyp tian wom en, 
 for  they  are vig or ous  and  give  birth be fore 
 the mid wife  can  get  to  them.”
20  So  God  was  good  to  the mid wives,  and 
 the peo ple mul ti plied  and be came  very nu-
mer ous. 21  Since  the mid wives  feared  God, 
 he  gave  them fam i lies. 22 Pha raoh  then com-

 turned  and  left Pha raoh’s pres ence. 7 Pha raoh’s off  i cials  asked  him, “ How  long 
 must  this  man  be  a  snare  to  us? Let  the  men  go, 
 so  that  they  may wor ship  the  L ord  their  God. Don’t  you re al ize  yet  that  Egypt  is dev as tat ed? ”
8  So Mo ses  and Aar on  were  brought  back 
 to Pha raoh. “ Go, wor ship  the  L ord  your  God,” 
Pha raoh  said. “ But ex act ly  who  will  be go ing? ”
9 Mo ses re plied, “ We  will  go  with  our  young 
 and  with  our  old;  we  will  go  with  our  sons  and 
 with  our daugh ters,  with  our  flocks  and  with 
 our  herds be cause  we  must  hold  the  L ord’ s 
fes ti val.”
10  He  said  to  them, “ The  Lord  would  have  to  be 
 with  you  if  I  would  ever  let  you  and  your fam i-
lies  go! Look  out  —   you’re head ing  for trou ble.

on  and  said, “ I  have  sinned  against  the  L ord 
 your  God  and  against  you. 17  Please for give 
 my  sin  once  more  and  make  an ap peal  to  the

29  Now  at mid night  the  L ord  struck ev ery 
first born  male  in  the  land  of  Egypt,  from  the 
first born  of Pha raoh  who  sat  on  his  throne  to

 there  was  a  loud wail ing through out  Egypt 
be cause  there  wasn’t  a  house with out some-
one  dead. 31  He sum moned Mo ses  and Aar on 
dur ing  the  night  and  said, “ Get  out im me di ate ly

ra el ites,  and  go, wor ship  the  L ord  as  you  have 
 said. 32  Take  even  your  flocks  and  your  herds 
 as  you  asked  and  leave,  and  also  bless  me.”
33  Now  the Egyp tians pressured  the peo-
ple  in or der  to  send  them quick ly  out  of  the 
coun try ,  for  they  said, “ We’re  all go ing  to  die! ” 
34  So  the peo ple  took  their  dough be fore  it  was

 up  in  their  clothes  on  their shoul ders. 35  The Is ra el ites act ed  on Moses’s  word  and

 gave  them  what  they re quest ed. In  this  way 
 they plun dered  the Egyp tians. 37  The Is ra el ites trav eled  from Ram e ses  to 
Suc coth,  about  six hun dred thou sand able-bod-

 mixed  crowd  also  went  up  with  them,  along 
 with  a  huge num ber  of live stock,  both  flocks 
 and  herds. 39  The peo ple  baked  the  dough  they

chased  may  eat  it, af ter  you  have cir cum cised

Phi lis tines,  even  though  it  was near by;  for  God 
 said, “ The peo ple  will  change  their  minds  and 
re turn  to  Egypt  if  they  face  war.” 18  So  he  led 
 the peo ple  around to ward  the  Red  Sea  along 
 the  road  of  the wil der ness. And  the Is ra el ites 
 left  the  land  of  Egypt  in bat tle for ma tion. 19 Mo ses  took  the  bones  of Jo seph  with  him, 
be cause Jo seph  had  made  the Is ra el ites  swear

20  They  set  out  from Suc coth  and  camped

 each  one. 8  The  L ord hard ened  the  heart  of 
Pha raoh  king  of  Egypt,  and  he pur sued  the 
Is ra el ites,  who  were go ing  out de fi ant ly . d 9  The 
Egyp tians  —   all Pha raoh’s hors es  and char-

af ter  them  and  caught  up  with  them  as  they 
 camped  by  the  sea be side Pi-hahiroth,  in  front

 looked  up  and  there  were  the Egyp tians com-

 and  cried  out  to  the  L ord  for  help. 11  They  said 
 to Mo ses: “ Is  it be cause  there  are  no  graves 
 in  Egypt  that  you  have tak en  us  away  to  die

 we  may  serve  the Egyp tians? It  would  have 
 been bet ter  for  us  to  serve  the Egyp tians  than

13  But Mo ses  said  to  the peo ple, “ Don’t  be

JETHRO’S VISIT
18 
Moses’s father-in-law Jeth ro,  the  priest 
 of Mid i an,  heard  about ev ery thing  that 
 God  had  done  for Mo ses  and  for  God’s peo-
ple Is ra el  when  the  L ord  brought Is ra el  out

tak en  in Zip po rah, Moses’s  wife, af ter  he  had 
 sent  her  back, 3  along  with  her  two  sons,  one 
 of  whom  was  named Ger shom h (be cause Mo-
ses  had  said, “ I  have  been  a res i dent  alien  in 
 a for eign  land”) 4  and  the oth er El i e zer (be-
cause  he  had  said, “ The  God  of  my fa ther  was 
 my help er  and res cued  me  from Pha raoh’s 
 sword”). i
5 Moses’s father-in-law Jeth ro,  along  with 
Moses’s  wife  and  sons,  came  to  him  in  the 
wil der ness  where  he  was  camped  at  the moun-
tain  of  God. 6  He  sent  word  to Mo ses, “ I,  your 
father-in-law Jeth ro,  am com ing  to  you  with 
 your  wife  and  her  two  sons.”
7  So Mo ses  went  out  to  meet  his father-in-
law ,  bowed  down,  and  then  kissed  him. They 
 asked  each oth er  how  they  had  been j  and 
 went  into  the  tent. 8 Mo ses re count ed  to  his 
father-in-law  all  that  the  L ord  had  done  to 
Pha raoh  and  the Egyp tians  for Is ra el’s  sake, 
 all  the hard ships  that con front ed  them  on  the 
 way ,  and  how  the  L ord res cued  them. 9 Jeth ro re joiced  over  all  the  good  things  the 
 L ord  had  done  for Is ra el  when  he res cued  them 
 from  the pow er  of  the Egyp tians. 10 “ Blessed 
 be  the  L ord,” Jeth ro ex claimed, “ who res cued 
 you  from  the pow er  of  Egypt  and  from  the 
pow er  of Pha raoh. He  has res cued  the peo-
ple  from un der  the pow er  of  Egypt! 11  Now  I 
 know  that  the  L ord  is great er  than  all  gods,

Aar on  came  with  all  the el ders  of Is ra el  to  eat

THE COVENANT CEREMONY
24 
 Then  he  said  to Mo ses, “ Go  up  to  the

3 Mo ses  came  and  told  the peo ple  all  the

 voice, “ We  will  do ev ery thing  that  the  L ord

 all  the  words  of  the  L ord. He  rose ear ly  the

 set  it  in ba sins;  the oth er  half  of  the  blood  he 
splattered  on  the al tar. 7  He  then  took  the cov-
enant  scroll  and  read  it  aloud  to  the peo ple. They re spond ed, “ We  will  do  and  obey  all  that 
 the  L ord  has com mand ed.”
8 Mo ses  took  the  blood, splattered  it  on 
 the peo ple,  and  said, “ This  is  the  blood  of  the 
cov enant  that  the  L ord  has  made  with  you 
con cern ing  all  these  words.”
9  Then Mo ses  went  up  with Aar on, Na dab,

 they  saw  the  God  of Is ra el. Be neath  his  feet

 him, “ Come,  make  gods d  for  us  who  will  go

2 Aar on re plied  to  them, “ Take  off  the  gold

 that  were  on  their  ears  and  brought  them  to 
Aar on. 4  He  took  the  gold  from  them, fash-

 into  an im age  of  a  calf. Then  they  said, “Is ra el,  these  are  your  gods, e 
 who  brought  you  up  from  the  land  of  Egypt! ”
5  When Aar on  saw  this,  he  built  an al tar  in
