Exodus 2:1-9

1And there went a manH376 of the houseH1004 of LeviH3878, and tookH3947 to wife a daughterH1323 of LeviH3878.

2And the womanH802 conceivedH2029, and bare a sonH1121: and when she sawH7200 him that he was a goodly child, she hidH6845 him threeH7969 monthsH3391.

3And when she could not longer hideH6845 him, she tookH3947 for him an arkH8392 of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitchH2203; and she putH7760 the childH3206 therein, and laid it in the flags by the river’s brink.

4And his sisterH269 stoodH3320 afarH7350 off, to knowH3045 what would be done to him.

5And the daughterH1323 of PharaohH6547 cameH3381 downH3381 to batheH7364 at the riverH2975; and her maidens walkedH1980 along by the river-side; and she sawH7200 the arkH8392 among the flags, and sentH7971 her handmaid to fetch it.

6And she openedH6605 it, and sawH7200 the childH3206: and, behold, the babe weptH1058. And she had compassionH2550 on him, and saidH559, This is oneH2088 of the Hebrews’H5680 childrenH3206.

7Then saidH559 his sisterH269 to Pharaoh’sH6547 daughterH1323, Shall I go and callH7121 thee a nurse of the HebrewH5680 womenH802, that she may nurse the childH3206 for thee?

8And Pharaoh’s daughterH1323 saidH559 to her, Go. And the maiden went and calledH7121 the child’sH3206 motherH517.

9And Pharaoh’s daughterH1323 saidH559 unto her, TakeH3947 this childH3206 awayH3947, and nurse it for me, and I will giveH5414 thee thy wagesH7939. And the womanH802 tookH3947 the childH3206, and nursed it.
