Exodus 1:1--2:25

1:1

Now these [are] the names
<08034>

of the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

which came
<0935> (8802)

into Egypt
<04714>_;

every man
<0376>

and his household
<01004>

came
<0935> (8804)

with Jacob
<03290>_.

1:2

Reuben
<07205>_,

Simeon
<08095>_,

Levi
<03878>_,

and Judah
<03063>_,

1:3

Issachar
<03485>_,

Zebulun
<02074>_,

and Benjamin
<01144>_,

1:4

Dan
<01835>_,

and Naphtali
<05321>_,

Gad
<01410>_,

and Asher
<0836>_.

1:5

And all the souls
<05315>

that came out
<03318> (8802)

of the loins
<03409>

of Jacob
<03290>

were seventy
<07657>

souls
<05315>_:

for Joseph
<03130>

was in Egypt
<04714>

[already]. {loins: Heb. thigh}

1:6

And Joseph
<03130>

died
<04191> (8799)_,

and all his brethren
<0251>_,

and all that generation
<01755>_.

1:7

And the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

were fruitful
<06509> (8804)_,

and increased abundantly
<08317> (8799)_,

and multiplied
<07235> (8799)_,

and waxed exceeding
<03966> <03966>

mighty
<06105> (8799)_;

and the land
<0776>

was filled
<04390> (8735)

with them.

1:8

Now there arose up
<06965> (8799)

a new
<02319>

king
<04428>

over Egypt
<04714>_,

which knew
<03045> (8804)

not Joseph
<03130>_.

1:9

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:

1:10

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>_.

1:11

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>_.

1:12

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}

1:13

And the Egyptians
<04714>

made
<05647> (0)

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

to serve
<05647> (8686)

with rigour
<06531>_:

1:14

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>_.

1:15

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>_:

1:16

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)_.

1:17

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)_.

1:18

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)_?

1:19

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.

1:20

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)_.

1:21

And it came to pass, because the midwives
<03205> (8764)

feared
<03372> (8804)

God
<0430>_,

that he made
<06213> (8799)

them houses
<01004>_.

1:22

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)_.

2:1

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>_.

2:2

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>_.

2:3

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>_.

2:4

And his sister
<0269>

stood
<03320> (8691)

afar off
<07350>_,

to wit
<03045> (8800)

what would be done
<06213> (8735)

to him.

2:5

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.

2:6

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>_.

2:7

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?

2:8

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>_.

2:9

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.

2:10

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}

2:11

And it came to pass in those days
<03117>_,

when Moses
<04872>

was grown
<01431> (8799)_,

that he went out
<03318> (8799)

unto his brethren
<0251>_,

and looked
<07200> (8799)

on their burdens
<05450>_:

and he spied
<07200> (8799)

an Egyptian
<04713> <0376>

smiting
<05221> (8688)

an Hebrew
<05680>_,

one of his brethren
<0251>_.

2:12

And he looked
<06437> (8799)

this way
<03541>

and that way
<03541>_,

and when he saw
<07200> (8799)

that [there was] no man
<0376>_,

he slew
<05221> (8686)

the Egyptian
<04713>_,

and hid
<02934> (8799)

him in the sand
<02344>_.

2:13

And when he went out
<03318> (8799)

the second
<08145>

day
<03117>_,

behold, two
<08147>

men
<0582>

of the Hebrews
<05680>

strove
<05327> (8737)

together: and he said
<0559> (8799)

to him that did the wrong
<07563>_,

Wherefore smitest
<05221> (8686)

thou thy fellow
<07453>_?

2:14

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Who made
<07760> (8804)

thee
<0376>

a prince
<08269>

and a judge
<08199> (8802)

over us? intendest
<0559> (8802)

thou to kill
<02026> (8800)

me, as thou killedst
<02026> (8804)

the Egyptian
<04713>_?

And Moses
<04872>

feared
<03372> (8799)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Surely
<0403>

this thing
<01697>

is known
<03045> (8738)_.

{a prince: Heb. a man, a prince}

2:15

Now when Pharaoh
<06547>

heard
<08085> (8799)

this thing
<01697>_,

he sought
<01245> (8762)

to slay
<02026> (8800)

Moses
<04872>_.

But Moses
<04872>

fled
<01272> (8799)

from the face
<06440>

of Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in the land
<0776>

of Midian
<04080>_:

and he sat down
<03427> (8799)

by a well
<0875>_.

2:16

Now the priest
<03548>

of Midian
<04080>

had seven
<07651>

daughters
<01323>_:

and they came
<0935> (8799)

and drew
<01802> (8799)

[water], and filled
<04390> (8762)

the troughs
<07298>

to water
<08248> (8687)

their father's
<01>

flock
<06629>_.

{priest: or, prince}

2:17

And the shepherds
<07462> (8802)

came
<0935> (8799)

and drove them away
<01644> (8762)_:

but Moses
<04872>

stood up
<06965> (8799)

and helped
<03467> (8686)

them, and watered
<08248> (8686)

their flock
<06629>_.

2:18

And when they came
<0935> (8799)

to Reuel
<07467>

their father
<01>_,

he said
<0559> (8799)_,

How
<04069>

[is it that] ye are come
<0935> (8800)

so soon
<04116> (8765)

to day
<03117>_?

{Reuel: called also Jethro, or, Jether}

2:19

And they said
<0559> (8799)_,

An Egyptian
<04713> <0376>

delivered
<05337> (8689)

us out of the hand
<03027>

of the shepherds
<07462> (8802)_,

and also drew
<01802> (8804)

[water] enough
<01802> (8800)

for us, and watered
<08248> (8686)

the flock
<06629>_.

2:20

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto his daughters
<01323>_,

And where [is] he? why [is] it [that] ye have left
<05800> (8804)

the man
<0376>_?

call
<07121> (8798)

him, that he may eat
<0398> (8799)

bread
<03899>_.

2:21

And Moses
<04872>

was content
<02974> (8686)

to dwell
<03427> (8800)

with the man
<0376>_:

and he gave
<05414> (8799)

Moses
<04872>

Zipporah
<06855>

his daughter
<01323>_.

2:22

And she bare
<03205> (8799)

[him] a son
<01121>_,

and he called
<07121> (8799)

his name
<08034>

Gershom
<01647>_:

for he said
<0559> (8804)_,

I have been a stranger
<01616>

in a strange
<05237>

land
<0776>_.

{Gershom: that is, A stranger here}

2:23

And it came to pass in process
<01992> <07227>

of time
<03117>_,

that the king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>

died
<04191> (8799)_:

and the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

sighed
<0584> (8735)

by reason of
<04480>

the bondage
<05656>_,

and they cried
<02199> (8799)_,

and their cry
<07775>

came up
<05927> (8799)

unto God
<0430>

by reason of the bondage
<05656>_.

2:24

And God
<0430>

heard
<08085> (8799)

their groaning
<05009>_,

and God
<0430>

remembered
<02142> (8799)

his covenant
<01285>

with Abraham
<085>_,

with Isaac
<03327>_,

and with Jacob
<03290>_.

2:25

And God
<0430>

looked
<07200> (8799)

upon the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and God
<0430>

had respect
<03045> (8799)

unto [them]. {had...: Heb. knew}
