← Acts 7:19	Acts 7:20 (KJV)	Acts 7:21 →
The same dealt subtilly with our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out their young children, to the end they might not live.	In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished up in his father's house three months:	And when he was cast out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.
