1And in the third year from the birth of Moses, Pharaoh was sitting at a banquet, when Alparanith the queen was sitting at his right and Bathia at his left, and the lad Moses was lying upon her bosom, and Balaam the son of Beor with his two sons, and all the princes of the kingdom were sitting at table in the king’s presence.
2And the lad stretched forth his hand upon the king’s head, and took the crown from the king’s head and placed it on his own head.
3And when the king and princes saw the work which the boy had done, the king and princes were terrified, and one man to his neighbor expressed astonishment.
4And the king said to the princes who were before him at table, What speak you and what say you, O you princes, in this matter, and what is to be the judgment against the boy on account of this act?
