Exodus 4:24 in Context — Exodus 4

22 Y dirás á Faraón: Jehová ha dicho así: Israel es mi hijo, mi primogénito.

23 Ya te he dicho que dejes ir á mi hijo, para que me sirva, mas no has querido dejarlo ir: he aquí yo voy á matar á tu hijo, tu primogénito.

24 Y aconteció en el camino, que en una posada le salió al encuentro Jehová, y quiso matarlo.

25 Entonces Séphora cogió un afilado pedernal, y cortó el prepucio de su hijo, y echólo á sus pies, diciendo: A la verdad tú me eres un esposo de sangre.

26 Así le dejó luego ir. Y ella dijo: Esposo de sangre, á causa de la circuncisión.
