- 6And Joseph dieth, and all his brethren, and all that generation;
- 7and the sons of Israel have been fruitful, and they teem, and multiply, and are very very mighty, and the land is filled with them.
- 8And there riseth a new king over Egypt, who hath not known Joseph,
- 9and he saith unto his people, `Lo, the people of the sons of Israel `is' more numerous and mighty than we;
- 10give help! let us act wisely concerning it, lest it multiply, and it hath come to pass, when war happeneth, that it hath been joined, even it, unto those hating us, and hath fought against us, and hath gone out up of the land.'

- 15And the king of Egypt speaketh to the midwives, the Hebrewesses, (of whom the name of the one `is' Shiphrah, and the name of the second Puah),
- 16and saith, `When ye cause the Hebrew women to bear, and have looked on the children; if it `is' a son -- then ye have put him to death; and if it `is' a daughter -- then she hath lived.'
- 17And the midwives fear God, and have not done as the king of Egypt hath spoken unto them, and keep the lads alive;
- 18and the king of Egypt calleth for the midwives, and saith to them, `Wherefore have ye done this thing, and keep the lads alive?'
- 19And the midwives say unto Pharaoh, `Because the Hebrew women `are' not as the Egyptian women, for they `are' lively; before the midwife cometh in unto them -- they have borne!'
