5 Pharaoh's daughter came down to bathe at the river. Her maidens walked along by the riverside. She saw the basket among the reeds, and sent her handmaid to get it.
6 She opened it, and saw the child, and, behold, the baby cried. She had compassion on him, and said, 'This is one of the Hebrews' children.'
7 Then his sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, 'Should I go and call a nurse for you from the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for you?'
8 Pharaoh's daughter said to her, 'Go.' The maiden went and called the child's mother.
9 Pharaoh's daughter said to her, 'Take this child away, and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages.' The woman took the child, and nursed it.
