Book 02 Exodus Chapter 001

 

001:001Now these are the names of the children of Israel, which came
into Egypt; every man and his household came with Jacob.

 

001:002Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,

 

001:003Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,

 

001:004Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.

 

001:005And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were
seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt already.

 

001:006And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that
generation.

 

001:007And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased
abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and
the land was filled with them.

 

001:008Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not
Joseph.

 

001:009And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the
children of Israel are more and mightier than we:

 

001:010Come on, let us deal wisely with them; lest they multiply, and
it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they
join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get
them up out of the land.

 

001:011Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them
with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure
cities, Pithom and Raamses.

 

001:012But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and
grew. And they were grieved because of the children of Israel.

 

001:013And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with
rigour:

 

001:014And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage, in morter,
and in brick, and in all manner of service in the field: all
their service, wherein they made them serve, was with rigour.

 

001:015And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which
the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other
Puah:

 

001:016And he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew
women, and see them upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye
shall kill him: but if it be a daughter, then she shall live.

 

001:017But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt
commanded them, but saved the men children alive.

 

001:018And the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said unto
them, Why have ye done this thing, and have saved the men
children alive?

 

001:019And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women
are not as the Egyptian women; for they are lively, and are
delivered ere the midwives come in unto them.

 

001:020Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people
multiplied, and waxed very mighty.

 

001:021And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he
made them houses.

 

001:022And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is
born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall
save alive.
