Exodus 2:2-6
New American Standard Bible
2 And the woman conceived and gave birth to a son; and when she saw [a]that he was [b](A)beautiful, she hid him for three months. 3 But when she could no longer hide him, she got him a (B)papyrus [c]basket and covered it with tar and pitch. Then she put the child in it and set it among the (C)reeds by the bank of the Nile. 4 (D)And his sister stood at a distance to [d]find out what would [e]happen to him.
5 Now the daughter of Pharaoh came down (E)to bathe at the Nile, with her female attendants walking alongside the Nile; and she saw the [f]basket among the reeds and sent her slave woman, and she brought it to her. 6 When she opened it, she [g]saw the child, and behold, the boy was crying. And she had pity on him and said, “This is one of the Hebrews’ children.”
