* And he said , When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women , and see them upon the stools ; if it be a son , then ye shall kill him : but if it be a daughter , then she shall live . * But the midwives feared God , and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them , but saved # the men children alive .
