Exodus 2:1-3

Contemporary English Version

Moses Is Born

2 A man from the Levi tribe married a woman from the same tribe, ^2 (A) and she later had a baby boy. He was a beautiful child, and she kept him inside for three months. ³ But when she could no longer keep him hidden, she made a basket out of reeds and covered it with tar. She put him in the basket and placed it in the tall grass along the edge of the Nile River.
