In context

²³And I told you to let My son go so that he may worship Me. But since you have refused to let him go, behold, I will kill your firstborn son!’”

²⁴Now at a lodging place along the way, the LORD met Moses and was about to kill him.

²⁵But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son’s foreskin, and touched it to Moses’ feet. “Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me,” she said.

²⁶So the LORD let him alone. (When she said, “bridegroom of blood,” she was referring to the circumcision.)

²⁷Meanwhile, the LORD had said to Aaron, “Go and meet Moses in the wilderness.” So he went and met Moses at the mountain of God and kissed him.
