lesserot@Exodus:2:1 @ And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took a daughter of Levi.

lesserot@Exodus:2:2 @ And the woman conceived, and bore a son; and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.

lesserot@Exodus:2:3 @ And when she could no longer hide him, she took for him a box of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch; and she put the child therein, and laid it amidst the flags by the brink of the river.

lesserot@Exodus:2:4 @ And his sister placed herself afar off, to ascertain what would be done to him.

lesserot@Exodus:2:5 @ And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the side of the river; and when she saw the box among the flags, she sent her maid and fetched it.

lesserot@Exodus:2:6 @ And she opened it, and saw the child, and, behold, it was a weeping boy; and she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews’ children.

lesserot@Exodus:2:7 @ Then said his sister to Pharaoh’s daughter, Shall I go and call thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse for thee the child?

lesserot@Exodus:2:8 @ And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, Go; and the maiden went and called the mother of the child.

lesserot@Exodus:2:9 @ And Pharaoh’s daughter said unto her, Take away this child, and nurse him for me, and I will give thee thy wages; and the woman took the child, and nursed him.

lesserot@Exodus:2:10 @ And the child grew up, and she brought him unto Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became to her as a son; and she called his name Moses; and she said, Because out of the water have I drawn him.

lesserot@Exodus:2:11 @ And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown up, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdensome labors; and he saw an Egyptian man smiting a Hebrew man, one of his brethren.

lesserot@Exodus:2:12 @ And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no one by, he smote the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.

lesserot@Exodus:2:13 @ And when he went out the second day, behold, two Hebrew men were striving together; and he said unto him that was in the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow?

lesserot@Exodus:2:14 @ And he said, Who made thee a chief and a judge over us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou hast killed the Egyptian! And Moses feared, and said, Surely the thing is become known.

lesserot@Exodus:2:20 @ And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? wherefore have ye left the man? call him, that he may eat bread.

lesserot@Exodus:2:21 @ And Moses was content to dwell with the man; and he gave Zipporah his daughter to Moses.

lesserot@Exodus:2:22 @ And she bore a son, and he called his name Gershom; for he said, I have been a stranger in a foreign land.

lesserot@Exodus:2:25 @ And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God took cognizance of them.
