Tetapi bidan-bidan itu takut akan Allah dan tidak melakukan seperti yang dikatakan raja Mesir kepada mereka, dan membiarkan bayi-bayi itu hidup.
Tetapi takutlah bidan itu akan Allah, tiada dibuatnya seperti titah raja Mesir itu kepadanya, melainkan dihidupinya segala anak laki-lakipun.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
But the midwives feared God,.... And therefore durst not take away the life of an human creature, which was contrary to the express law of God, Genesis 9:6:
and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them; knowing it was right to obey God rather than man, though ever so great, or in so exalted a station:
but saved the men children alive; did not use any violence with them, by stifling them in the birth. The scheme was so barbarous and shocking, especially to the tender sex, to whom it was proposed, and so devoid of humanity, that one would think it should never enter into the heart of man.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Exodus 1:17. The midwives feared God — Because they knew that God had forbidden murder of every kind; for though the law was not yet given, Exodus 20:13, being Hebrews they must have known that God had from the beginning declared, Whosoever sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed, Genesis 9:6. Therefore they saved the male children of all to whose assistance they were called. Exodus 1:19; Exodus 1:19.
