Exodus 2:1-3 ▼

1 A man of the family of Levi married the daughter of a descendant of Levi.

2 Later, the woman became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She saw that he was a beautiful child, and hid him for three months.

3 But when she was no longer able to hide him, she took a papyrus container, coated it with asphalt and pitch, placed the child in it, and put it among the reeds along the bank of the Nile.
