1 And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
2 And the woman conceived, and bore a son: and when she saw him that he was a fine child, she hid him three months.
3 And when she could no longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with tar and with pitch, and put the child in it; and she laid it among the reeds by the river's bank.
4 And his sister stood far off, to know what would be done to him.
