Συνέταξεν δὲ Φαραὼ παντὶ τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ λέγων Πᾶν’ ἄρσεν ὃ ἐὰν τεχθῇ τοῖς Ἑβραίοις εἰς τὸν ποταμὸν ῥίψατε, καὶ πᾶν θῆλυ, ζωογονεῖτε αὐτό.

Latin (Vulgate)
Præcepit ergo Pharao omni populo suo, dicens: Quidquid masculini sexus natum fuerit, in flumen projicite: quidquid feminini, reservate.
Entonces Faraón mandó á todo su pueblo, diciendo: Echad en el río todo hijo que naciere, y á toda hija reservad la vida.
Then Pharaoh commanded all his people: “ Every son born to the Hebrews you must throw into the Nile, but every daughter you may allow to live.”
