Exodus 1:18-20

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁸ And the king of Egypt called for the midwives and said unto them, Why have ye done this thing and have given the men children their lives?

¹⁹ And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women, for they are lively and are delivered before the midwives come in unto them.

²⁰ Therefore God dealt well with the midwives, and the people multiplied and waxed very mighty.
