Exodus 2:1-4 ▼

1 A man from the household of Levi married a woman who was a descendant of Levi.

2 The woman became pregnant and gave birth to a son. When she saw that he was a healthy child, she hid him for three months.

3 But when she was no longer able to hide him, she took a papyrus basket for him and sealed it with bitumen and pitch. She put the child in it and set it among the reeds along the edge of the Nile.

4 His sister stationed herself at a distance to find out what would happen to him.
