5 About that time one of the king's daughters came down to take a bath in the river, while her servant women walked along the river bank. She saw the basket in the tall grass and sent one of the young women to pull it out of the water. 6 When the king's daughter opened the basket, she saw the baby and felt sorry for him because he was crying. She said, "This must be one of the Hebrew babies." 7 At once the baby's older sister came up and asked, "Do you want me to get a Hebrew woman to take care of the baby for you?" 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 And when he was old enough, she took him to the king's daughter, who adopted him. She named him Moses because she said, "I pulled him out of the water."
