exodus 1:17 But the midwives feared God, and did not do as the king of Egypt had commanded them, but let the boys live.

< Exodus 1:16
Exodus 1:18 >

      17. But the midwives feared God--Their faith inspired them with such courage as to risk their lives, by disobeying the mandate of a cruel tyrant; but it was blended with weakness, which made them shrink from speaking the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
