Exodus 1:1-22
These are the names of the sons of Israel who went to Egypt with
Jacob, each with his family: 2 Reuben, Simeon, Levi and Judah;
3
Issachar, Zebulun and Benjamin; 4 Dan and Naphtali; Gad and Asher.
5
The descendants of Jacob numbered seventy in all; Joseph was
already in Egypt.
6
Now Joseph and all his brothers and all that generation died, 7 but the
Israelites were exceedingly fruitful; they multiplied greatly, increased
in numbers and became so numerous that the land was filled with
them.

Then a new king, to whom Joseph meant nothing, came to power in
Egypt. 9 “Look,” he said to his people, “the Israelites have become far
too numerous for us. 10 Come, we must deal shrewdly with them or
they will become even more numerous and, if war breaks out, will join
our enemies, fight against us and leave the country.”
8
So they put slave masters over them to oppress them with forced
labor, and they built Pithom and Rameses as store cities for Pharaoh.
12
But the more they were oppressed, the more they multiplied and
spread; so the Egyptians came to dread the Israelites 13 and worked
them ruthlessly. 14 They made their lives bitter with harsh labor in
brick and mortar and with all kinds of work in the fields; in all their
harsh labor the Egyptians worked them ruthlessly.
11
The king of Egypt said to the Hebrew midwives, whose names were
Shiphrah and Puah, 16 “When you are helping the Hebrew women
during childbirth on the delivery stool, if you see that the baby is a
boy, kill him; but if it is a girl, let her live.” 17 The midwives, however,
feared God and did not do what the king of Egypt had told them to do;
they let the boys live. 18 Then the king of Egypt summoned the
midwives and asked them, “Why have you done this? Why have you
let the boys live?”
15
The midwives answered Pharaoh, “Hebrew women are not like
Egyptian women; they are vigorous and give birth before the midwives
arrive.”
19
So God was kind to the midwives and the people increased and
became even more numerous. 21 And because the midwives feared
God, he gave them families of their own.
20
Then Pharaoh gave this order to all his people: “Every Hebrew boy
that is born you must throw into the Nile, but let every girl live.”
