Exodus 1:8--2:10

Now there arose up
<06965> (8799)
a new
<02319>
king
<04428>
over Egypt
<04714>_,
which knew
<03045> (8804)
not Joseph
<03130>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto his people
<05971>_,
Behold, the people
<05971>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
[are] more
<07227>
and mightier
<06099>
than we:
Come on
<03051> (8798)_,
let us deal wisely
<02449> (8691)
with them; lest they multiply
<07235> (8799)_,
and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out
<07122> (8799)
any war
<04421>_,
they
<01931>
join
<03254> (8738)
also unto our enemies
<08130> (8802)_,
and fight
<03898> (8738)
against us, and [so] get them up
<05927> (8804)
out of the land
<0776>_.
Therefore they did set
<07760> (8799)
over them taskmasters
<04522> <08269>
to afflict
<06031> (8763)
them with their burdens
<05450>_.
And they built
<01129> (8799)
for Pharaoh
<06547>
treasure
<04543>
cities
<05892>_,
Pithom
<06619>
and Raamses
<07486>_.
But the more they afflicted
<06031> (8762)
them, the more
<03651>
they multiplied
<07235> (8799)
and grew
<06555> (8799)_.
And they were grieved
<06973> (8799)
because
<06440>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{But...: Heb. And as they afflicted them, so they multiplied, etc}
And the Egyptians
<04714>
made
<05647> (0)
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
to serve
<05647> (8686)
with rigour
<06531>_:
And they made
<04843> (0)
their lives
<02416>
bitter
<04843> (8762)
with hard
<07186>
bondage
<05656>_,
in morter
<02563>_,
and in brick
<03843>_,
and in all manner of service
<05656>
in the field
<07704>_:
all their service
<05656>_,
wherein they made them serve
<05647> (8804)_,
[was] with rigour
<06531>_.
And the king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>
spake
<0559> (8799)
to the Hebrew
<05680>
midwives
<03205> (8764)_,
of which the name
<08034>
of the one
<0259>
[was] Shiphrah
<08236>_,
and the name
<08034>
of the other
<08145>
Puah
<06326>_:
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
When ye do the office of a midwife
<03205> (8763)
to the Hebrew women
<05680>_,
and see
<07200> (8804)
[them] upon the stools
<070>_;
if it [be] a son
<01121>_,
then ye shall kill
<04191> (8689)
him: but if it [be] a daughter
<01323>_,
then she shall live
<02425> (8804)_.
But the midwives
<03205> (8764)
feared
<03372> (8799)
God
<0430>_,
and did
<06213> (8804)
not as the king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>
commanded
<01696> (8765)
them, but saved
<02421> (0)
the men children
<03206>
alive
<02421> (8762)_.
And the king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>
called
<07121> (8799)
for the midwives
<03205> (8764)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Why
<04069>
have ye done
<06213> (8804)
this thing
<01697>_,
and have saved
<02421> (0)
the men children
<03206>
alive
<02421> (8762)_?
And the midwives
<03205> (8764)
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Pharaoh
<06547>_,
Because the Hebrew
<05680>
women
<0802>
[are] not as the Egyptian women
<04713>_;
for they [are] lively
<02422>_,
and are delivered
<03205> (8804)
ere
<02962>
the midwives
<03205> (8764)
come in
<0935> (8799)
unto them.
Therefore God
<0430>
dealt well
<03190> (8686)
with the midwives
<03205> (8764)_:
and the people
<05971>
multiplied
<07235> (8799)_,
and waxed very
<03966>
mighty
<06105> (8799)_.
And it came to pass, because the midwives
<03205> (8764)
feared
<03372> (8804)
God
<0430>_,
that he made
<06213> (8799)
them houses
<01004>_.
And Pharaoh
<06547>
charged
<06680> (8762)
all his people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Every son
<01121>
that is born
<03209>
ye shall cast
<07993> (8686)
into the river
<02975>_,
and every daughter
<01323>
ye shall save alive
<02421> (8762)_.
And there went
<03212> (8799)
a man
<0376>
of the house
<01004>
of Levi
<03878>_,
and took
<03947> (8799)
[to wife] a daughter
<01323>
of Levi
<03878>_.
And the woman
<0802>
conceived
<02029> (8799)_,
and bare
<03205> (8799)
a son
<01121>_:
and when she saw
<07200> (8799)
him that he [was a] goodly
<02896>
[child], she hid
<06845> (8799)
him three
<07969>
months
<03391>_.
And when she could
<03201> (8804)
not longer
<05750>
hide
<06845> (8687)
him, she took
<03947> (8799)
for him an ark
<08392>
of bulrushes
<01573>_,
and daubed
<02560> (8799)
it with slime
<02564>
and with pitch
<02203>_,
and put
<07760> (8799)
the child
<03206>
therein; and she laid
<07760> (8799)
[it] in the flags
<05488>
by the river's
<02975>
brink
<08193>_.
And his sister
<0269>
stood
<03320> (8691)
afar off
<07350>_,
to wit
<03045> (8800)
what would be done
<06213> (8735)
to him.
And the daughter
<01323>
of Pharaoh
<06547>
came down
<03381> (8799)
to wash
<07364> (8800)
[herself] at the river
<02975>_;
and her maidens
<05291>
walked
<01980> (8802)
along by the river's
<02975>
side
<03027>_;
and when she saw
<07200> (8799)
the ark
<08392>
among
<08432>
the flags
<05488>_,
she sent
<07971> (8799)
her maid
<0519>
to fetch
<03947> (8799)
it.
And when she had opened
<06605> (8799)
[it], she saw
<07200> (8799)
the child
<03206>_:
and, behold, the babe
<05288>
wept
<01058> (8802)_.
And she had compassion
<02550> (8799)
on him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
This [is one] of the Hebrews
<05680>_'
children
<03206>_.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
his sister
<0269>
to Pharaoh's
<06547>
daughter
<01323>_,
Shall I go
<03212> (8799)
and call
<07121> (8804)
to thee a nurse
<03243> (8688)
of the Hebrew
<05680>
women
<0802>_,
that she may nurse
<03243> (8686)
the child
<03206>
for thee?
And Pharaoh's
<06547>
daughter
<01323>
said
<0559> (8799)
to her, Go
<03212> (8798)_.
And the maid
<05959>
went
<03212> (8799)
and called
<07121> (8799)
the child's
<03206>
mother
<0517>_.
And Pharaoh's
<06547>
daughter
<01323>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, Take
<03212> (0)
this child
<03206>
away
<03212> (8685)_,
and nurse
<03243> (8685)
it for me, and I will give
<05414> (8799)
[thee] thy wages
<07939>_.
And the woman
<0802>
took
<03947> (8799)
the child
<03206>_,
and nursed
<05134> (8686)
it.
And the child
<03206>
grew
<01431> (8799)_,
and she brought
<0935> (8686)
him unto Pharaoh's
<06547>
daughter
<01323>_,
and he became her son
<01121>_.
And she called
<07121> (8799)
his name
<08034>
Moses
<04872>_:
and she said
<0559> (8799)_,
Because I drew
<04871> (8804)
him out of the water
<04325>_.
{Moses: that is, Drawn out}
