耶和華的事，不謀利沒有版權

1. And a man went from the house of Levi and took a daughter of Levi as his wife.

2. And the woman conceived and bore a son. And when she saw him, that he was beautiful, she hid him three months.

3. But when she could no longer hide him, she took an ark of papyrus for him, and daubed it with bitumen and with pitch, and put the child in it. And she laid it in the reeds by the river’s edge.

4. And his sister stood afar off to know what would happen to him.

5. And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the river. And her maidens walked along by the riverside. And when she saw the ark among the reeds, she sent her slavegirl to bring it to her.

6. And she opened it, and she saw the child. And behold, a boy wept. And she had pity on him, and said, “This is one of the Hebrews’ sons.”

7. And his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, “Shall I go and call a woman, a nurse of the Hebrew women for you, that she may nurse the child for you?”

8. And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Go.” And the girl went and called the child’s mother.

9. And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Take this child away and nurse it for me and I will give you your wages.” And the woman took the child and nursed it.

10. And the child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses. And she said, “Because I took him out of the water.”

 (A Faithful Version)

1. 有一位屬利未族的男士，娶了利未族的一位女子為妻。

2. 這女子懷孕生子。見孩子相貌俊逸，私下藏了三個月。

3. 之後，看來無法遮瞞這事，就想到用蘆葦草做成小舟，再煮溶，汁液具黏性塗在小舟上防水，孩子放在裡面。再把小舟放在長滿蘆葦的河邊隨水漂浮。

4. 姊姊離遠地站著，察看將會發生的事。

5. 這時，正是法老的女兒到河邊洗澡的時間。有侍女與她一起。這位公主發覺小舟在蘆葦間漂浮，就好奇地差婢女去把它帶來。

6. 她打開遮布，見有一男孩在哭，她驚訝地問：怎會在有孩子在小舟上。

7. 姊姊此時上前，對這位公主說：我可以去找一位婦人，作他的奶媽。

8.公主回應：你去找一位來吧。姊姊就回去請母親到來。

9. 公主對孩子的母親說：孩子就交妳餵奶，給妳工資作報酬。於是婦人就負責乳養孩子的事。

10. 這孩子漸漸長大，是公主的兒子身份，起名叫摩西。意思是從水中救來。

有關米利暗：

出埃及記2:1-10記載了摩西的一位未具名的姐姐。

她的名字曾出現是在以色列人過紅海的場景中（出埃及記15:20-21）。被稱為先知米利暗，亞倫的姐姐，希伯來婦女唱歌、跳舞、擊鼓。

在民數記26:57-59  記載摩西是暗蘭和約基別所生。摩西排行最細：Miriam、Aaron、Moses

人，在尋求出路，總會想出法子。這是因為心靈的靈活，當時的女性除了環境她不可以改變，方法卻是靈巧純良，而且細膩成功的可能很大。

這安排看似簡單，卻有許多常識的應用。一個如何運用思維去解決問題，不用讀書，而是在生活當中觀察，例如取蘆葦汁液用作防水層這樣的方法，似乎不是從讀書得來。一個妥善的後續安排，是用細心去思考步驟，作出當中的人事安排。它是個人的思考靈活，心想成功的考慮，是心思導向 + 常識處理。

摩西得救，是女性作出常識的安排，成事，是因為相信耶和華是拯救。

當新王想盡辦法去削弱以色列人的人數，到一個可控的程度，於是下令去用苦工這種方式。新王沒有得到想要的效果。於是用另一計，行陰，找助產婦去執行暗殺的任務。只是，沒有上當，因為相信這不是耶和華的心意，自行作出違令的決定。她們用靈活的心思，想出應對的方法，簡單易做，出口術。她們對新王不忠，原來耶和華喜悅。事件當中若有不正當性，就不要死守律法，這樣的愚忠，不是忠心的原意。若不理是行事的恰當性，是不會贏得耶和華的喜悅。

這些婦女，是以色列人之後，不再是耶和華刻意安排，而是相信的人，耶和華就會為她們作出保護，確保她們想的，得以成功。新約在暗地裡履行出來。 這是一件人和耶和華心意相近的一件事，從常識可以判斷，不用去求問當不當行。對耶和華有信心的人，都會明白的事。認為這個你有明白到，就多去分享。
