Exodus 2:6 in Context — Exodus 2
4 La sœur de l’enfant se tint à quelque distance, pour savoir ce qui lui arriverait.
5 La fille de Pharaon descendit au fleuve pour se baigner, et ses compagnes se promenèrent le long du fleuve. Elle aperçut la caisse au milieu des roseaux, et elle envoya sa servante pour la prendre.
6 Elle l’ouvrit, et vit l’enfant: c’était un petit garçon qui pleurait. Elle en eut pitié, et elle dit: C’est un enfant des Hébreux!
7 Alors la sœur de l’enfant dit à la fille de Pharaon: Veux-tu que j’aille te chercher une nourrice parmi les femmes des Hébreux, pour allaiter cet enfant?
8 Va, lui répondit la fille de Pharaon. Et la jeune fille alla chercher la mère de l’enfant.
