Exodus 2:9 in Context — Exodus 2

7 Então sua irmã disse à filha de Faraó: Irei a chamar-te uma ama das hebreias, para que te crie este menino?

8 E a filha de Faraó respondeu: Vai. Então foi a virgem, e chamou à mãe do menino;

9 À qual disse a filha de Faraó: Leva este menino, e cria-o para mim, e eu te o pagarei. E a mulher tomou ao menino, e o criou.

10 E quando cresceu o menino, ela o trouxe à filha de Faraó, a qual o adotou, e pôs-lhe por nome Moisés, dizendo: Porque das águas o tirei.

11 E naqueles dias aconteceu que, crescido já Moisés, saiu a seus irmãos, e viu suas cargas: e observou a um egípcio que feria a um dos hebreus, seus irmãos.
