Exodus 1

[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40]

EX 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:
EX 1:2 Ruben, Simeon, Levi, Juda,
EX 1:3 Issachar, Zabulon, and Benjamin,
EX 1:4 Dan, and Nephtali, Gad and Aser.
EX 1:5 And all the souls that came out of Jacob's thigh, were seventy: but Joseph was in Egypt.
EX 1:6 After he was dead, and all his brethren, and all that generation,
EX 1:7 The children of Israel increased, and sprung up into multitudes, and growing exceedingly strong they filled the land.
EX 1:8 In the mean time there arose a new king over Egypt, that knew not Joseph:
EX 1:9 And he said to his people: Behold the people of the children of Israel are numerous and stronger than we.
EX 1:10 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.
EX 1:11 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.
EX 1:12 But the more they oppressed them, the more they were multiplied, and increased:
EX 1:13 And the Egyptians hated the children of Israel, and afflicted them and mocked them:
EX 1:14 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.
EX 1:15 And the king of Egypt spoke to the midwives of the Hebrews: of whom one was called Sephora, the other Phua,
EX 1:16 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.
EX 1:17 But the midwives feared God, and did not do as the king of Egypt had commanded, but saved the men children.
EX 1:18 And the king called for them and said: What is that you meant to do, that you would save the men children ?
EX 1:19 They answered: The Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women: for they themselves are skillful in the office of a midwife; and they are delivered before we come to them.
EX 1:20 Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied and grew exceedingly strong.
EX 1:21 And because the midwives feared God, he built them houses.
EX 1:22 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.
