Then said his sister unto Pharaoh's daughter: shall I goo and call unto the a nurse of the Hebrews women, to nurse the the child? ⟨image 101⟩And the maid ran and called the child's mother. Then Pharaoh's daughter said unto her Take this child away and nurse it for me, and I will reward thee for thy labour. And the woman toke the child and nursed it up.
Then sayde his sister vnto Pharaos doughter: shall I goo and call vnto the a nurse of the Ebrues wemen, to nurse the the childe? ⟨image 101⟩And the mayde ranne and called the childes mother. Thē Pharaos doughter saide vnto her Take this childe awaye ād nurse it for me, ād I will rewarde the for thi laboure. And the woman toke the childe and nursed it vp.

And it happened in these days when Moses was waxed great, that he went out unto his brethren and looked on their burdens, and spied an Egyptian smiting one of his brethren an Hebrew. And he looked round about: and when he saw that there was no man by, he slay we the Egyptian and hid him in the sound. And he went out another day: and behold, two Hebrews strove together. And he said unto him that did the wrong: wherefore smitest thou thine neighbour? And he answered: who hath made the a ruler or a judge over us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian? Then Moses feared and said: of a surety the thing is known. And Pharaoh her de of it and went about to slay Moses: but he fled from Pharaoh and dwelt in the land of Midian, and he sat down by a wells side.
