Amplified Bible
Exodus 1:15-17
15Then the king of Egypt said to the Hebrew midwives, one of whom was named Shiphrah (beauty) and the other named Puah (splendor),
16“When you act as midwives to the Hebrew women and see them on the birthstool, if it is a son, you shall kill him; but if it is a daughter, she shall live.”
17But the midwives feared God [with profound reverence] and did not do as the king of Egypt commanded, but they let the boy babies live.
