Exodus 4:24 CPDV

²²  And you shall say to him: 'Thus says the Lord: Israel is my firstborn son.

²³  I have said to you: Release my son, so that he may serve me. And you were not willing to release him. Behold, I will put to death your firstborn son.'

²⁴  And while he was on the journey, at an inn, the Lord met him, and he was willing to kill him.

²⁵  For this reason, Zipporah took a very sharp stone, and she circumcised the foreskin of her son, and she touched his feet, and she said, 'You are a bloody spouse to me.'

²⁶  And he released him, after she had said, 'You are a bloody spouse,' because of the circumcision.
