1 And a man of the house of Lĕwi went and married a daughter of Lĕwi.
2 And the woman conceived and bore a son. And she saw that he was a lovely child, and she hid him three months.
3 And when she could hide him no longer, she took an ark of wicker for him, and coated it with tar and pitch, and put the child in it, and laid it in the reeds by the edge of the river.
4 And his sister stood at a distance, to know what would be done to him.
