New American Standard Bible

¹⁷ And you shall take in your hand ^(A)this staff, ^(B)with which you shall perform the signs.”

¹⁸ Then Moses departed and returned to ^(C)his father-in-law ^[a]Jethro, and said to him, “Please, let me go, that I may return to my brothers who are in Egypt, and see if they are still alive.” And Jethro said to Moses, “Go in peace.” ¹⁹ Now the Lord said to Moses in Midian, “Go ^[b]back to Egypt, for ^(D)all the men who were seeking your life are dead.”
