20 "And where is he?" Reuel asked his daughters. "Why did you leave him? Invite him to have something to eat."
20 And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? why is it that ye have left the man? call him, that he may eat bread.
20 He said to his daughters, "Then where is he? Why have you left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread."
20 He said, "So where is he? Why did you leave him behind? Invite him so he can have something to eat with us."
20 So he said to his daughters, "And where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread."
20 "Then where is he?" their father asked. "Why did you leave him there? Invite him to come and eat with us."

Commentary on Exodus 2:16-22
(Read Exodus 2:16-22)
Moses found shelter in Midian. He was ready to help Reuel's daughters to water their flocks, although bred in learning and at court. Moses loved to be doing justice, and to act in defence of such as he saw injured, which every man ought to do, as far as it is in his power. He loved to be doing good; wherever the providence of God casts us, we should desire and try to be useful; and when we cannot do the good we would, we must be ready to do the good we can. Moses commended himself to the prince of Midian; who married one of his daughters to Moses, by whom he had a son, called Gershom, "a stranger there," that he might keep in remembrance the land in which he had been a stranger.
