Exodus 1
- 1 These are the names of the children of Israel, that went into Egypt with Jacob: they went in every man with his household:
- 2 Ruben, Simeon, Levi, Juda,
- 3 Issachar, Zabulon, and Benjamin,
- 4 Dan, and Nephthali, Gad and Aser.
- 5 And all the souls that came out of Jacob's thigh, were seventy: but Joseph was in Egypt.
- 6 After he was dead, and all his brethren, and all that generation,
- 7 The children of Israel increased, and sprung up into multitudes, and growing exceedingly strong they filled the land.
- 8 In the mean time there arose a new king over Egypt, that knew not Joseph:
- 9 And he said to his people: Behold the people of the children of Israel are numerous and stronger than we.
- 10 Come let us wisely oppress them, lest they multiply: and if any war shall rise against us, join with our enemies, and having overcome us, depart out of the land.
- 11 Therefore he set over them masters of the works, to afflict them with burdens: and they built for Pharao cities of tabernacles, Phithom, and Ramesses.
- 12 But the more they oppressed them, the more they were multiplied and increased.
- 13 And the Egyptians hated the children of Israel, and afflicted them and mocked them:
- 14 And they made their life bitter with hard works in clay and brick, and with all manner of service, wherewith they were overcharged in the works of the earth.
- 15 And the king of Egypt spoke to the midwives of the Hebrews: of whom one was called Sephora, the other Phua,
- 16 Commanding them: When you shall do the office of midwives to the Hebrew women, and the time of delivery is come: if it be a man child, kill it: if a woman, keep it alive.
- 17 But the midwives feared God, and did not do as the king of Egypt had commanded, but saved the men children.
- 18 And the king called for them and said: What is it that you meant to do, that you would save the men children?
- 19 They answered: The Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women: for they themselves are skilful in the office of a midwife; and they are delivered before we come to them.
- 20 Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied and grew exceedingly strong.
- 21 And because the midwives feared God, he built them houses.
- 22 Pharao therefore charged all his people, saying: Whatsoever shall be born of the male sex, ye shall cast into the river: whatsoever of the female, ye shall save alive.
