Exodus 2:3

Brenton's English Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible

2:3
And when they could no longer hide him, his mother took for him an ark, and besmeared it with bitumen, and cast the child into it, and put it in the ooze by the river.
But when she could no longer hide him, she got him a papyrus basket (note: The Hebrew can also mean ark; also in verse 5; see Genesis 6:14.) and coated it with tar and pitch. Then she placed the child in the basket and set it among the reeds along the bank of the Nile.
