Exodus 2:8-10
Contemporary English Version
8 “Yes,” the king's daughter answered.
So the girl brought the baby's mother, 9 and the king's daughter told her, “Take care of this child, and I will pay you.”
The baby's mother carried him home and took care of him. 10 (A) And when he was old enough, she took him to the king's daughter, who adopted him. She named him Moses[a] because she said, “I pulled him out of the water.”
