Targum for Exodus 1:17

וַתִּירֶ֤אןָ הַֽמְיַלְּדֹת֙ אֶת־הָ֣אֱלֹהִ֔ים וְלֹ֣א עָשׂ֔וּ כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר דִּבֶּ֥ר אֲלֵיהֶ֖ן מֶ֣לֶךְ מִצְרָ֑יִם וַתְּחַיֶּ֖יןָ אֶת־הַיְלָדִֽים׃

But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men-children alive.

Targum Jonathan on Exodus

But the midwives feared before the Lord, and would not do according to what the king of Mizraim had said to them, but they saved the children.
