Moses in Midian
16 There was a priest in Midian who had seven daughters. His daughters went to that well to get water for their father’s sheep. They were trying to fill the water troughs for their father’s sheep. 17 But some shepherds came and chased the girls away. Then Moses defended the girls and watered their sheep.
18 Then they went back to their father, Reuel, also called Jethro. He asked them, “Why have you come home early today?”
