Exodus 2:3 in Context — Exodus 2
1 Um homem da família de Levi foi, e tomou por mulher uma filha de Levi:
2 A qual concebeu, e deu à luz um filho: e vendo-o que era belo, teve-lhe escondido três meses.
3 Porém não podendo ocultar-lhe mais tempo, tomou uma cesta de juncos, e vedou-a com piche e betume, e colocou nela ao menino, e o pôs entre os juncos à beira do rio:
4 E ficou parada uma irmã sua ao longe, para ver o que lhe aconteceria.
5 E a filha de Faraó desceu a lavar-se ao rio, e passeando suas virgens pela beira do rio, viu ela a cesta entre os juncos, e enviou uma criada sua a que a tomasse.
