Exodus 1:1-9

1TheseH428 are the namesH8034 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 who wentH935 to EgyptH4714 withH854 JacobH3290, eachH376 with his familyH1004:

2ReubenH7205, SimeonH8095, LeviH3878, and JudahH3063; 3IssacharH3485, ZebulunH2074, and BenjaminH1144; 4DanH1835 and NaphtaliH5321; GadH1410 and AsherH836.

5The descendantsH5315 of JacobH3290H3318H3409 numberedH1961 seventyH76571 in allH3605H5315, including JosephH3130, who wasH1961 already in EgyptH4714.

6Now JosephH3130 and allH3605 his brothersH251 and allH3605 thatH1931 generationH1755 diedH4191, 7but the IsraelitesH1121H3478 were fruitfulH6509 and increased rapidlyH8317; they multipliedH7235 and became exceedinglyH3966 numerousH6105, so that the landH776H854 was filled with themH4390.

8Then a newH2319 kingH4428, whoH834 did notH3808 knowH3045 JosephH3130, came to powerH6965 inH5921 EgyptH4714. 9“LookH2009,” he saidH559 toH413 his peopleH5971, “the IsraelitesH1121H3478H5971 have become too numerousH7227 and too powerfulH6099 for usH4480.
