¹⁰ And the child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became ^(A)her son. So she called his name ^[a]Moses, saying, “Because I drew him out of the water.”

²⁴ By faith ^(A)Moses, when he became of age, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter,

²¹ But ^(A)when he was set out, ^(B)Pharaoh’s daughter took him away and brought him up as her own son. ²² And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was ^(C)mighty in words and deeds.

²⁰ So it came to pass in the process of time that Hannah conceived and bore a son, and called his name ^[a]Samuel, saying, “Because I have asked for him from the Lord.”

¹¹ And the Angel of the Lord said to her:

The Command to Love

3 Behold ^(A)what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that ^(B)we should be called children of ^[a]God! Therefore the world does not know ^[b]us, ^(C)because it did not know Him.

^5 (A)to redeem those who were under the law, ^(B)that we might receive the adoption as sons.

^21 (A)And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name ^[a]Jesus, ^(B)for He will save His people from their sins.”

⁵ And now your ^(A)two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, who were born to you in the land of Egypt before I came to you in Egypt, are mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine.
