Exodus 1:12-22

       12   But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they were grieved because of the children of Israel.
      13   And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with rigour:
      14   And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage, in morter, and in brick, and in all manner of service in the field: all their service, wherein they made them serve, was with rigour.
      15.   And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah:
      16   And he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye shall kill him: but if it be a daughter, then she shall live.
      17   But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive.
      18   And the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said unto them, Why have ye done this thing, and have saved the men children alive?
      19   And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women; for they are lively, and are delivered ere the midwives come in unto them.
      20   Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied, and waxed very mighty.
      21   And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made them houses.
      22   And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive.

Exodus 1:22

       22   And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive.

Exodus 2:1-10

       1.   And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
      2   And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.
      3   And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river's brink.
      4   And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.
      5.   And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it.
      6   And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children.
      7   Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?
      8   And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's mother.
      9   And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the woman took the child, and nursed it.
      10   And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water.

Exodus 2:10

       10   And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water.

Psalms 121:1-8

       1.   A Song of degrees. I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
      2   My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
      3   He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
      4   Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
      5   The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
      6   The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
      7   The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
      8   The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

Psalms 121:5

       5   The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.

Isaiah 18:2

       2   That sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of bulrushes upon the waters, saying, Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation scattered and peeled, to a people terrible from their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out and trodden down, whose land the rivers have spoiled!

Acts 7:22

       22   And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.

Hebrews 11:23

       23   By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.

Hebrews 11:24-27

       24   By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;
      25   Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
      26   Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
      27   By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
