1:1 Now these [are] the names of the children of Israel,
which came into Egypt; every man and his household came with
Jacob.
1:2 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,
1:3 Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,
1:4 Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.
1:5 And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob
were seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt [already].
1:6 And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that
generation.
1:7 And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased
abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the
land was filled with them.
1:8 Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not
Joseph.
1:9 And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the
children of Israel [are] more and mightier than we:
1:10 Come 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.
1:11 Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict
them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure
cities, Pithom and Raamses.
1:12 But the more they afflicted them, the more they
multiplied and grew. And they were grieved because of the
children of Israel.
1:13 And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve
with rigour:
1:14 And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage, in
mortar, and in brick, and in all manner of service in the
field: all their service, wherein they made them serve, [was]
with rigour.
1:15 And 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:
1:16 And 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.
1:17 But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of
Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive.
1:18 And 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?
1:19 And 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.
1:20 Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the
people multiplied, and waxed very mighty.
1:21 And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God,
that he made them houses.
1:22 And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son
that is born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter
ye shall save alive.
