# Carry them closely to your chest as a father carries a baby # Have I given them birth so that you should say to me, 'Carry ... baby?'

(See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-simile]]) Moses wants God to remember that God told him to take care of the Israelites even though Moses was not their father. AT: "I have not given them birth, so you have no right to say to me, 'Carry ... baby'!" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
# Carry them closely to your chest

# Should I carry them ... to give them? # Should I carry them ... to give them?
