1 Now these are the names 8034 of the children 1121 of Israel 3478, which came 935 into Egypt 4714; every man 376 and his household 1004 came 935 with Jacob 3290.
2 Reuben 7205, Simeon 8095, Levi 3878, and Judah 3063,
3 Issachar 3485, Zebulun 2074, and Benjamin 1144,
4 Dan 1835, and Naphtali 5321, Gad 1410, and Asher 836.
5 And all the souls 5315 that came out 3318 of the loins 3409 of Jacob 3290 were seventy 7657 souls 5315: for Joseph 3130 was in Egypt 4714 already.
6 And Joseph 3130 died 4191, and all his brethren 251, and all that generation 1755.
7 And the children 1121 of Israel 3478 were fruitful 6509, and increased abundantly 8317, and multiplied 7235, and waxed exceeding 3966 3966 mighty 6105; and the land 776 was filled 4390 with them.
8 Now there arose up 6965 a new 2319 king 4428 over Egypt 4714, which knew 3045 not Joseph 3130.
9 And he said 559 unto his people 5971, Behold, the people 5971 of the children 1121 of Israel 3478 are more 7227 and mightier 6099 than we:
10 Come on 3051, let us deal wisely 2449 with them; lest they multiply 7235, and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out 7122 any war 4421, they 1931 join 3254 also unto our enemies 8130, and fight 3898 against us, and so get them up 5927 out of the land 776.
11 Therefore they did set 7760 over them taskmasters 4522 8269 to afflict 6031 them with their burdens 5450. And they built 1129 for Pharaoh 6547 treasure 4543 cities 5892, Pithom 6619 and Raamses 7486.
12 But the more they afflicted 6031 them, the more 3651 they multiplied 7235 and grew 6555. And they were grieved 6973 because 6440 of the children 1121 of Israel 3478.
13 And the Egyptians 4714 made 5647 0 the children 1121 of Israel 3478 to serve 5647 with rigour 6531:
14 And they made 4843 0 their lives 2416 bitter 4843 with hard 7186 bondage 5656, in morter 2563, and in brick 3843, and in all manner of service 5656 in the field 7704: all their service 5656, wherein they made them serve 5647, was with rigour 6531.
15 And the king 4428 of Egypt 4714 spake 559 to the Hebrew 5680 midwives 3205, of which the name 8034 of the one 259 was Shiphrah 8236, and the name 8034 of the other 8145 Puah 6326:
16 And he said 559, When ye do the office of a midwife 3205 to the Hebrew women 5680, and see 7200 them upon the stools 70; if it be a son 1121, then ye shall kill 4191 him: but if it be a daughter 1323, then she shall live 2425.
17 But the midwives 3205 feared 3372 God 430, and did 6213 not as the king 4428 of Egypt 4714 commanded 1696 them, but saved 2421 0 the men children 3206 alive 2421.
18 And the king 4428 of Egypt 4714 called 7121 for the midwives 3205, and said 559 unto them, Why 4069 have ye done 6213 this thing 1697, and have saved 2421 0 the men children 3206 alive 2421?
19 And the midwives 3205 said 559 unto Pharaoh 6547, Because the Hebrew 5680 women 802 are not as the Egyptian women 4713; for they are lively 2422, and are delivered 3205 ere 2962 the midwives 3205 come in 935 unto them.
20 Therefore God 430 dealt well 3190 with the midwives 3205: and the people 5971 multiplied 7235, and waxed very 3966 mighty 6105.
21 And it came to pass, because the midwives 3205 feared 3372 God 430, that he made 6213 them houses 1004.
22 And Pharaoh 6547 charged 6680 all his people 5971, saying 559, Every son 1121 that is born 3209 ye shall cast 7993 into the river 2975, and every daughter 1323 ye shall save alive 2421.
