cbeautiful, she hid him for three months. 3But when she could hide him no longer, she got him a ▼▼ I.e. papyrus reeds
,
ewicker ▼▼ Or chest
basket and covered it over with tar and pitch. Then she put the child into it and set it among the greeds by the bank of the Nile. 4 hHis sister stood at a distance to ▼▼ Lit know
find out what would ▼▼ Lit be done
happen to him. 5The daughter of Pharaoh came down kto bathe at the Nile, with her maidens walking alongside the Nile; and she saw the ▼▼ Or chest
