CHAP. I.

1 The children of Israel after Iosephs death do multiply. 8 The more they are oppressed by a new King, the more they multiply. 15 The godlines of the Midwiues, in sauing the men children aliue. 22 Pharaoh commandeth the male children to be cast into the riuer.

¹ Nowe these are the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt, euery man & his household, came with Iacob.¹

² Reuben, Simeon, Leui, and Iudah,

³ Issachar, Zebulun and Beniamin,

⁴ Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.

⁵ And all the soules that came out of the loynes of Iacob, were seuentie soules: for Ioseph was in Egypt already.⁵

⁶ And Ioseph died, and all his brethren, and all that generation.

⁷ ¶ And the children of Israel were fruitfull, and increased aboundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty, and the land was filled with them.⁷

⁸ Now there arose vp a new King ouer Egypt, which knew not Ioseph.

⁹ And he said vnto his people, Behold, the people of the children of Israel are moe and mightier then we.

¹⁰ Come on, let vs deale wisely with them, lest they multiply, and it come to passe that when there falleth out any warre, they ioyne also vnto our enemies, and fight against vs, and so get them vp out of the land.

¹¹ Therefore they did set ouer them task-masters, to afflict them with their burdens: And they built for Pharaoh treasure-cities, Pithom and Raamses.

¹² But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew: and they were grieued because of the children of Israel.¹²
