1  Now these⁴²⁸ are the names⁸⁰³⁴ of the children¹¹²¹ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ which came⁹³⁵ into Egypt;⁴⁷¹⁴ every man³⁷⁶ and his household¹⁰⁰⁴ came⁹³⁵ with⁸⁵⁴ Jacob.³²⁹⁰

2  Reuben,⁷²⁰⁵ Simeon,⁸⁰⁹⁵ Levi,³⁸⁷⁸ and Judah,³⁰⁶³

3  Issachar,³⁴⁸⁵ Zebulun,²⁰⁷⁴ and Benjamin,¹¹⁴⁴

4  Dan,¹⁸³⁵ and Naphtali,⁵³²¹ Gad,¹⁴¹⁰ and Asher.⁸³⁶

5  And all³⁶⁰⁵ the souls⁵³¹⁵ that came out³³¹⁸ of the loins³⁴⁰⁹ of Jacob³²⁹⁰ were¹⁹⁶¹ seventy⁷⁶⁵⁷ souls:⁵³¹⁵ for Joseph³¹³⁰ was¹⁹⁶¹ in Egypt⁴⁷¹⁴ already.

6  And Joseph³¹³⁰ died,⁴¹⁹¹ and all³⁶⁰⁵ his brethren,²⁵¹ and all³⁶⁰⁵ that¹⁹³¹ generation.¹⁷⁵⁵

7  And the children¹¹²¹ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ were fruitful,⁶⁵⁰⁹ and increased abundantly,⁸³¹⁷ and multiplied,⁷²³⁵ and waxed exceeding mighty;^{6105 3966 3966} and the land⁷⁷⁶ was filled⁴³⁹⁰ with⁸⁵⁴ them.

8  Now there arose up⁶⁹⁶⁵ a new²³¹⁹ king⁴⁴²⁸ over⁵⁹²¹ Egypt,⁴⁷¹⁴ which⁸³⁴ knew³⁰⁴⁵ not^{3808 853} Joseph.³¹³⁰

9  And he said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ his people,⁵⁹⁷¹ Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ of the children¹¹²¹ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ are more⁷²²⁷ and mightier⁶⁰⁹⁹ than⁴⁴⁸⁰ we:

10  Come³⁰⁵¹ on, let us deal wisely²⁴⁴⁹ with them; lest⁶⁴³⁵ they multiply,⁷²³⁵ and it come to pass,¹⁹⁶¹ that, when³⁵⁸⁸ there falleth out⁷¹²² any war,⁴⁴²¹ they¹⁹³¹ join³²⁵⁴ also¹⁵⁷¹ unto⁵⁹²¹ our enemies,⁸¹³⁰ and fight³⁸⁹⁸ against us, and so get them up⁵⁹²⁷ out of⁴⁴⁸⁰ the land.⁷⁷⁶

11  Therefore they did set⁷⁷⁶⁰ over⁵⁹²¹ them taskmasters^{8269 4522} to⁴⁶¹⁶ afflict⁶⁰³¹ them with their burdens.⁵⁴⁵⁰ And they built¹¹²⁹ for Pharaoh⁶⁵⁴⁷ treasure⁴⁵⁴³ cities,^{5892 853} Pithom⁶⁶¹⁹ and Rameses.⁷⁴⁸⁶

12  But the more⁸³⁴ they afflicted⁶⁰³¹ them, the more³⁶⁵¹ they multiplied⁷²³⁵ and grew.^{3651 6555} And they were grieved⁶⁹⁷³ because^{4480 6440} of the children¹¹²¹ of Israel.³⁴⁷⁸

13  And the Egyptians⁴⁷¹⁴ made ⁸⁵³ the children¹¹²¹ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ to serve⁵⁶⁴⁷ with rigor:⁶⁵³¹

14  And they made ⁸⁵³ their lives²⁴¹⁶ bitter⁴⁸⁴³ with hard⁷¹⁸⁶ bondage,⁵⁶⁵⁶ in mortar,²⁵⁶³ and in brick,³⁸⁴³ and in all manner³⁶⁰⁵ of service⁵⁶⁵⁶ in the field:^{7704 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ their service,⁵⁶⁵⁶ wherein⁸³⁴ they made them serve,⁵⁶⁴⁷ was with rigor.⁶⁵³¹

15  And the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Egypt⁴⁷¹⁴ spoke⁵⁵⁹ to the Hebrew⁵⁶⁸⁰ midwives,³²⁰⁵ of which⁸³⁴ the name⁸⁰³⁴ of the one²⁵⁹ was Shiphrah,⁸²³⁶ and the name⁸⁰³⁴ of the other⁸¹⁴⁵ Puah:⁶³²⁶

16  And he said,⁵⁵⁹ When ye do the office of a midwife³²⁰⁵ to ⁸⁵³ the Hebrew women,⁵⁶⁸⁰ and see⁷²⁰⁰ them upon⁵⁹²¹ the stools;⁷⁰ if⁵¹⁸ it¹⁹³¹ be a son,¹¹²¹ then ye shall kill⁴¹⁹¹ him: but if⁵¹⁸ it¹⁹³¹ be a daughter,¹³²³ then she shall live.²⁴²⁵

17  But the midwives³²⁰⁵ feared^{3372 853} God,⁴³⁰ and did⁶²¹³ not³⁸⁰⁸ as⁸³⁴ the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Egypt⁴⁷¹⁴ commanded^{1696 413} them, but saved^{2421 853} the men children³²⁰⁶ alive.

18  And the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Egypt⁴⁷¹⁴ called for⁷¹²¹ the midwives,³²⁰⁵ and said⁵⁵⁹ unto them, Why⁴⁰⁶⁹ have ye done⁶²¹³ this²⁰⁸⁸ thing,¹⁶⁹⁷ and have saved^{2421 853} the men children³²⁰⁶ alive?

19  And the midwives³²⁰⁵ said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ Pharaoh,⁶⁵⁴⁷ Because³⁵⁸⁸ the Hebrew women⁵⁶⁸⁰ are not³⁸⁰⁸ as the Egyptian⁴⁷¹³ women;⁸⁰² for³⁵⁸⁸ they²⁰⁰⁷ are lively,²⁴²² and are delivered³²⁰⁵ ere²⁹⁶² the midwives³²⁰⁵ come in⁹³⁵ unto⁴¹³ them.

20  Therefore God⁴³⁰ dealt well³¹⁹⁰ with the midwives:³²⁰⁵ and the people⁵⁹⁷¹ multiplied,⁷²³⁵ and waxed very mighty.^{6105 3966}

21  And it came to pass,¹⁹⁶¹ because³⁵⁸⁸ the midwives³²⁰⁵ feared^{3372 853} God,⁴³⁰ that he made⁶²¹³ them houses.¹⁰⁰⁴

22  And Pharaoh⁶⁵⁴⁷ charged⁶⁶⁸⁰ all³⁶⁰⁵ his people,⁵⁹⁷¹ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Every³⁶⁰⁵ son¹¹²¹ that is born³²⁰⁹ ye shall cast⁷⁹⁹³ into the river,²⁹⁷⁵ and every³⁶⁰⁵ daughter¹³²³ ye shall save alive.²⁴²¹

1 ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ τῶν εἰσπεπορευμένων εἰς Αἴγυπτον ἅμα Ιακωβ τῷ πατρὶ αὐτῶν ἕκαστος πανοικίᾳ αὐτῶν εἰσήλθοσαν

2 Ρουβην Συμεων Λευι Ιουδας

3 Ισσαχαρ Ζαβουλων καὶ Βενιαμιν

4 Δαν καὶ Νεφθαλι Γαδ καὶ Ασηρ

5 Ιωσηφ δὲ ἦν ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ ἦσαν δὲ πᾶσαι ψυχαὶ ἐξ Ιακωβ πέντε καὶ ἑβδομήκοντα

6 ἐτελεύτησεν δὲ Ιωσηφ καὶ πάντες οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσα ἡ γενεὰ ἐκείνη

7 οἱ δὲ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ ηὐξήθησαν καὶ ἐπληθύνθησαν καὶ χυδαῖοι ἐγένοντο καὶ κατίσχυον σφόδρα σφόδρα ἐπλήθυνεν δὲ ἡ γῆ αὐτούς

8 ἀνέστη δὲ βασιλεὺς ἕτερος ἐπ᾽ Αἴγυπτον ὃς οὐκ ᾔδει τὸν Ιωσηφ

9 εἶπεν δὲ τῷ ἔθνει αὐτοῦ ἰδοὺ τὸ γένος τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ μέγα πλῆθος καὶ ἰσχύει ὑπὲρ ἡμᾶς

10 δεῦτε οὖν κατασοφισώμεθα αὐτούς μήποτε πληθυνθῇ καί ἡνίκα ἂν συμβῇ ἡμῖν πόλεμος προστεθήσονται καὶ οὗτοι πρὸς τοὺς ὑπεναντίους καὶ ἐκπολεμήσαντες ἡμᾶς ἐξελεύσονται ἐκ τῆς γῆς

11 καὶ ἐπέστησεν αὐτοῖς ἐπιστάτας τῶν ἔργων ἵνα κακώσωσιν αὐτοὺς ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις καὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν πόλεις ὀχυρὰς τῷ Φαραω τήν τε Πιθωμ καὶ Ραμεσση καὶ Ων ἥ ἐστιν Ἡλίου πόλις

12 καθότι δὲ αὐτοὺς ἐταπείνουν τοσούτῳ πλείους ἐγίνοντο καὶ ἴσχυον σφόδρα σφόδρα καὶ ἐβδελύσσοντο οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ

13 καὶ κατεδυνάστευον οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι τοὺς υἱοὺς Ισραηλ βίᾳ

14 καὶ κατωδύνων αὐτῶν τὴν ζωὴν ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις τοῖς σκληροῖς τῷ πηλῷ καὶ τῇ πλινθείᾳ καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς ἔργοις τοῖς ἐν τοῖς πεδίοις κατὰ πάντα τὰ ἔργα ὧν κατεδουλοῦντο αὐτοὺς μετὰ βίας

15 καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τῶν Αἰγυπτίων ταῖς μαίαις τῶν Εβραίων τῇ μιᾷ αὐτῶν ᾗ ὄνομα Σεπφωρα καὶ τὸ ὄνομα τῆς δευτέρας Φουα

16 καὶ εἶπεν ὅταν μαιοῦσθε τὰς Εβραίας καὶ ὦσιν πρὸς τῷ τίκτειν ἐὰν μὲν ἄρσεν ᾖ ἀποκτείνατε αὐτό ἐὰν δὲ θῆλυ περιποιεῖσθε αὐτό

17 ἐφοβήθησαν δὲ αἱ μαῖαι τὸν θεὸν καὶ οὐκ ἐποίησαν καθότι συνέταξεν αὐταῖς ὁ βασιλεὺς Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐζωογόνουν τὰ ἄρσενα

18 ἐκάλεσεν δὲ ὁ βασιλεὺς Αἰγύπτου τὰς μαίας καὶ εἶπεν αὐταῖς τί ὅτι ἐποιήσατε τὸ πρᾶγμα τοῦτο καὶ ἐζωογονεῖτε τὰ ἄρσενα

19 εἶπαν δὲ αἱ μαῖαι τῷ Φαραω οὐχ ὡς γυναῖκες Αἰγύπτου αἱ Εβραῖαι τίκτουσιν γὰρ πρὶν ἢ εἰσελθεῖν πρὸς αὐτὰς τὰς μαίας καὶ ἔτικτον

20 εὖ δὲ ἐποίει ὁ θεὸς ταῖς μαίαις καὶ ἐπλήθυνεν ὁ λαὸς καὶ ἴσχυεν σφόδρα

21 ἐπειδὴ ἐφοβοῦντο αἱ μαῖαι τὸν θεόν ἐποίησαν ἑαυταῖς οἰκίας

22 συνέταξεν δὲ Φαραω παντὶ τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ λέγων πᾶν ἄρσεν ὃ ἐὰν τεχθῇ τοῖς Εβραίοις εἰς τὸν ποταμὸν ῥίψατε καὶ πᾶν θῆλυ ζωογονεῖτε αὐτό

1 Hæc sunt nomina filiorum Israël qui ingressi sunt in Ægyptum cum Jacob: singuli cum domibus suis introierunt:

2 Ruben, Simeon, Levi, Judas,

3 Issachar, Zabulon et Benjamin,

4 Dan et Nephthali, Gad et Aser.

5 Erant igitur omnes animæ eorum qui egressi sunt de femore Jacob, septuaginta: Joseph autem in Ægypto erat.

6 Quo mortuo, et universis fratribus ejus, omnique cognatione illa,

7 filii Israël creverunt, et quasi germinantes multiplicati sunt: ac roborati nimis, impleverunt terram.

8 Surrexit interea rex novus super Ægyptum, qui ignorabat Joseph.

9 Et ait ad populum suum: Ecce, populus filiorum Israël multus, et fortior nobis est.

10 Venite, sapienter opprimamus eum, ne forte multiplicetur: et si ingruerit contra nos bellum, addatur inimicis nostris, expugnatisque nobis egrediatur de terra.

11 Præposuit itaque eis magistros operum, ut affligerent eos oneribus: ædificaveruntque urbes tabernaculorum Pharaoni, Phithom et Ramesses.

12 Quantoque opprimebant eos, tanto magis multiplicabantur, et crescebant:

13 oderantque filios Israël Ægyptii, et affligebant illudentes eis,

14 atque ad amaritudinem perducebant vitam eorum operibus duris luti et lateris, omnique famulatu, quo in terræ operibus premebantur.

15 Dixit autem rex Ægypti obstetricibus Hebræorum, quarum una vocabatur Sephora, altera Phua,

16 præcipiens eis: Quando obstetricabitis Hebræas, et partus tempus advenerit: si masculus fuerit, interficite eum: si femina, reservate.

17 Timuerunt autem obstetrices Deum, et non fecerunt juxta præceptum regis Ægypti, sed conservabant mares.

18 Quibus ad se accersitis, rex ait: Quidnam est hoc quod facere voluistis, ut pueros servaretis?

19 Quæ responderunt: Non sunt Hebreæ sicut ægyptiæ mulieres: ipsæ enim obstetricandi habent scientiam, et priusquam veniamus ad eas, pariunt.

20 Bene ergo fecit Deus obstetricibus: et crevit populus, confortatusque est nimis.

21 Et quia timuerunt obstetrices Deum, ædificavit eis domos.

22 Præcepit ergo Pharao omni populo suo, dicens: Quidquid masculini sexus natum fuerit, in flumen projicite: quidquid feminini, reservate.
