Chap. I.
The smal number of Israelites much increasing in Ægypt, 6. especially after
the death of Ioseph and his brethren, 8. a new king, that knew not Ioseph
in vaine striueth to hinder their multiplication, 11. by imposing workes
vpon them, 15. and by commanding to kil, 22. and to drowne al the mal
children of them. God in the meane time rewardeth the midwiues, that
fearing him, killed not the children.
1 These be the names of the children
of Israel, that entred into Ægypt with
Iacob: they did enter in euerie one
with their houses, note
2 Ruben, Simeon,
Leui, Iudas,
3 Issachar, Zabulon, and
Beniamin,
4 Dan, and Neptali, Gad,
and Aser.
5 Therfore al the soules
that came out of Iacobs thigh, were
seuentie: and Ioseph was in Ægypt.
6 Who being dead,
and al his brethren, and al that generation,
7 the children
of Israel increased, and as it were springing vp did multiplie:
and growing strong exceedingly, filled the land.
8 In the
meane time there arose a new king ouer Ægypt, that knew
not Ioseph:
9 and he said to his people: Behold note the people
of the children of Israel is much, and stronger then we.
10 Come, let vs wisely oppresse the same, note lest perhaps it
multiplie: and if there shal be anie warre against vs, it ioyne
with our enemies, and we being ouerthrowne, they depart
out of the land.
11 Therfore note he set ouer them maisters of
the workes, to afflict them with burdens: and they built
vnto Pharao cities of tabernacles, Phithom, and Ramesses.
12 And the more they did oppresse them, so much the more
they multiplied, and increased:
13 and the Ægyptians note hated
-- --
Israelites afflicted.
the children of Israël, and deriding afflicted them:
14 and
they brought their life into bitternes with the hard workes
of clay, and bricke, and with al seruice, wherewith they
were pressed in the workes of the earth.
15 And the King of
Ægypt said to the midwiues of the Hebrewes: of whom one
was called Sephora, the other Phua,
16 commanding them:
noteWhen you shal be midwiues to the Hebrew wemen, and
the time of deliuerie is come: if it be a manchild, kil it: if a
woman, reserue her.
17 09Q0116But the midwiues feared God, and
did not according to the commandement of the king of
Ægypt, but preserued the menchildren.
18 To whom being
called vnto him, the king said: What is this that you ment to
do, that you would saue the men-children?
19 Who answered:
The09Q0117 Hebrew wemem are not as the Ægyptian
wemen: for they haue the knowledge to play the mindwife
them selues, and before we come to them, they are deliuered.
20 God therfore did wel to the midwiues: and the people
encreased, and became strong exceedingly.
21 And09Q0118 because
the midwiues feared God, he built them houses.
22 Pharao
therfore commanded al his people, saying: Whatsoeuer shal
be borne of the male sex, note cast it into the riuer: whatsoeuer
of the female, reserue it.
