Exodus 1:19-21

19 And the midwives said to Pharaoh, “Because the Hebrew women are not like the Mitsrian women. For they are lively and give birth before the midwives come to them.”

20 So Elohim was good to the midwives, and the people increased and became very numerous.

21 And it came to be, because the midwives feared Elohim, that He provided households for them.
