절	Contemporary English Version (2006)	King James Version
1	—	Now these are the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt; every man and his household came with Jacob.
2	—	Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,
3	—	Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,
4	—	Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.
5	The People of Israel Suffer When Jacob went to Egypt, his son Joseph was already there. So Jacob took his eleven other sons and their families. They were: Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Zebulun, Benjamin, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, and Asher. Altogether, Jacob had 70 children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren who went with him.	And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt already.
6	After Joseph, his brothers, and everyone else in that generation had died,	And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that generation.
7	the people of Israel became so numerous that the whole region of Goshen was full of them.	And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was filled with them.
8	Many years later a new king came to power. He did not know what Joseph had done for Egypt,	Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph.
9	and he told the Egyptians: There are too many of those Israelites in our country, and they are becoming more powerful than we are.	And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we:
10	If we don't outsmart them, their families will keep growing larger. And if our country goes to war, they could easily fight on the side of our enemies and escape from Egypt.	Come on, let us deal wisely with them; lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out of the land.
11	The Egyptians put slave bosses in charge of the people of Israel and tried to wear them down with hard work. Those bosses forced them to build the cities of Pithom and Rameses, where the king could store his supplies.	Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses.
12	But even though the Israelites were mistreated, their families grew larger, and they took over more land. Because of this, the Egyptians feared them worse than before	But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they were grieved because of the children of Israel.
13	and made them work so hard	And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with rigour:
14	that their lives were miserable. The Egyptians were cruel to the people of Israel and forced them to make bricks and to mix mortar and to work in the fields.	And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage, in morter, and in brick, and in all manner of service in the field: all their service, wherein they made them serve, was with rigour.
15	Finally, the king called in Shiphrah and Puah, the two women who helped the Hebrew mothers when they gave birth.	And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah:
16	He told them, “If a Hebrew woman gives birth to a girl, let the child live. If the baby is a boy, kill him!”	And he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye shall kill him: but if it be a daughter, then she shall live.
17	But the two women were faithful to God and did not kill the boys, even though the king had told them to.	But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive.
18	The king called them in again and asked, “Why are you letting those baby boys live?”	And the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said unto them, Why have ye done this thing, and have saved the men children alive?
19	They answered, “Hebrew women have their babies much quicker than Egyptian women. By the time we arrive, their babies are already born.”	And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women; for they are lively, and are delivered ere the midwives come in unto them.
20	—	Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied, and waxed very mighty.
21	God was good to the two women because they truly respected him, and he blessed them with children of their own. The Hebrews kept increasing	And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made them houses.
22	until finally, the king gave a command to everyone in the nation, “As soon as a Hebrew boy is born, throw him into the Nile River! But you can let the girls live.”	And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive.
