Exodus 4:24-26
New Life Version
24 The Lord met Moses at a resting place on the way and would have put him to death. 25 But Zipporah took a knife and cut off her son’s piece of skin and threw it at Moses’ feet. And she said, “For sure you are a husband of blood to me.” 26 Then the Lord let him alone. Zipporah said, “You are a husband of blood,” because of the religious act of becoming a Jew.
