:Exodus 1
:1. Now these <0428 >el-leh > [are] the names <8034 shem > of the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, which came <0935 bow> > into Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >; every man <0376 >iysh > and his household <1004 bayith > came <0935 bow> > with Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >.
:2 Reuben <7205 R@>uwben >, Simeon <8095 Shim<own >, Levi <3878 Leviy >, and Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >,
:3 Issachar <3485 Yissaskar >, Zebulun <2074 Z@buwluwn >, and Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn >,
:4 Dan <1835 Dan >, and Naphtali <5321 Naphtaliy >, Gad <1410 Gad >, and Asher <0836 >Asher >.
:5 And all <3605 kol > the souls <5315 nephesh > that came <3318 yatsa> > out of the loins <3409 yarek > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > were seventy <7657 shib<iym. > souls <5315 nephesh >:for Joseph <3130 Yowceph > was in Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > [already].
:6 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > died <4191 muwth >, and all <3605 kol > his brethren <0251 >ach >, and all <3605 kol > that generation <1755 dowr >.
:7 And the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > were fruitful <6509 parah >, and increased <8317 sharats > abundantly <8317 sharats >, and multiplied <7235 rabah >, and waxed exceeding <3966 m@<od > mighty <6105 <atsam >; and the land <0776 >erets > was filled <4390 male> > with them.
:8. Now there arose <6965 quwm > up a new <2319 chadash > king <4428 melek > over <5921 <al > Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, which <0834 >aher > knew <3045 yada< > not Joseph <3130 Yowceph >.
:9 And he said <0559 >amar > unto his people <5971 <am >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, the people <5971 <am > of the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > [are] more <7227 rab > and mightier <6099 <atsuwm > than we:
:10 Come <3051 yahab > on, let us deal wisely <2449 chakam > with them; lest <6435 pen > they multiply <7235 rabah >, and it come <1961 hayah > to pass, that, when <3588 kiy > there falleth <7122 qara> > out any war <4421 milchamah >, they join <3254 yacaph > also <1571 gam > unto our enemies <8130 sane> >, and fight <3898 lacham > against us, and [so] get <5927 <alah > them up out of the land <0776 >erets >.
:11 Therefore they did set <7760 suwm > over <5921 <al > them taskmasters to afflict <6031 <anah > them with their burdens <5450 c@balah >. And they built <1129 banah > for Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > treasure <4543 mick@nah > cities <5892 <iyr >, Pithom <6619 Pithom > and Raamses <7486 Ra<m@cec >.
:12 But the more <3651 ken > they afflicted <6031 <anah > them, the more <3651 ken > they multiplied <7235 rabah > and grew <6555 parats >. And they were grieved <6973 quwts > because <6440 paniym > of the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.
:13 And the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > made the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > to serve <5647 <abad > with rigour <6531 perek >:
:14 And they made their lives <2416 chay > bitter <4843 marar > with hard <7186 qasheh > bondage <5656 <abodah >, in morter <2563 chomer >, and in brick <3843 l@benah >, and in all <3605 kol > manner of service <5656 <abodah > in the field <7704 sadeh >:all <3605 kol > their service <5656 <abodah >, wherein <0834 >aher > they made them serve <5647 <abad >, [was] with rigour <6531 perek >.
:15. And the king <4428 melek > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > spake <0559 >amar > to the Hebrew <5680 <Ibriy > midwives <3205 yalad >, of which <0834 >aher > the name <8034 shem > of the one <0259 >echad > [was] Shiphrah <8236 Shiphrah >, and the name <8034 shem > of the other <8145 sheniy > Puah <6326 Puw<ah >:
:16 And he said <0559 >amar >, When ye do the office of a midwife <3205 yalad> to the Hebrew <5680 <Ibriy > women, and see <7200 ra>ah > [them] upon the stools <70>; if it [be] a son <1121 ben >, then ye shall kill <4191 muwth > him:but if it [be] a daughter <1323 bath >, then she shall live <2425 chayay >.
:17 But the midwives <3205 yalad > feared <3372 yare> > God <0430 >elohiym >, and did <6213 <asah > not as the king <4428 melek > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > commanded <1696 dabar > them, but saved <2421 chayah > the men children <3206 yeled > alive <2421 chayah >.
:18 And the king <4428 melek > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > called <7121 qara> > for the midwives <3205 yalad >, and said <0559 >amar > unto them, Why <4069 madduwa< > have ye done <6213 <asah > this <2088 zeh > thing <1697 dabar >, and have saved <2421 chayah > the men children <3206 yeled > alive <2421 chayah >?
:19 And the midwives <3205 yalad > said <0559 >amar > unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, Because <3588 kiy > the Hebrew <5680 <Ibriy > women <0802 >ishshah > [are] not as the Egyptian <4713 Mitsriy > women <0802 >ishshah >; for they [are] lively <2422 chayeh >, and are delivered <3205 yalad > ere <2962 terem > the midwives <3205 yalad > come <0935 bow> > in unto them.
:20 Therefore God <0430 >elohiym > dealt well <3190 yatab > with the midwives <3205 yalad >:and the people <5971 <am > multiplied <7235 rabah >, and waxed very <3966 m@<od > mighty <6105 <atsam >.
:21 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, because <3588 kiy > the midwives <3205 yalad > feared <3372 yare> > God <0430 >elohiym >, that he made <6213 <asah > them houses <1004 bayith >.
:22 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > charged <6680 tsavah > all <3605 kol > his people <5971 <am >, saying <0559 >amar >, Every <3605 kol > son <1121 ben > that is born <3209 yillowd > ye shall cast <7993 shalak > into the river <2975 y@<or >, and every <3605 kol > daughter <1323 bath > ye shall save <2421 chayah > alive <2421 chayah >.
:Exodus 2
:1. And there went <3212 yalak > a man <0376 >iysh > of the house <1004 bayith > of Levi <3878 Leviy >, and took <3947 laqach > [to wife] a daughter <1323 bath > of Levi <3878 Leviy >.
:2 And the woman <0802 >ishshah > conceived <2030 hareh >, and bare <3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben >:and when <3588 kiy > she saw <7200 ra>ah > him that he [was a] goodly <2896 towb > [child], she hid <6845 tsaphan > him three <7969 shalowsh > months <3391 yerach >.
:3 And when <3588 kiy > she could <3201 yakol > not longer <5750 <owd > hide <6845 tsaphan > him, she took <3947 laqach > for him an ark <8392 tebah > of bulrushes <1573 gome> >, and daubed <2560 chamar > it with slime <2564 chemar > and with pitch <2203 zepheth >, and put <7760 suwm > the child <3206 yeled > therein; and she laid <7760 suwm > [it] in the flags <5488 cuwph > by the river's <2975 y@<or > brink <8193 saphah >.
:4 And his sister <0269 >achowth > stood <3320 yatsab > afar <7350 rachowq > off, to wit <3045 yada< > what <4100 mah > would be done <6213 <asah > to him.
:5. And the daughter <1323 bath > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > came <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > to wash <7364 rachats > [herself] at <5921 <al > the river <2975 y@<or >; and her maidens <5291 na<arah > walked <1980 halak > along by the river's <2975 y@<or > side <3027 yad >; and when she saw <7200 ra>ah > the ark <8392 tebah > among <8432 tavek > the flags <5488 cuwph >, she sent <7971 shalach > her maid <0519 >amah > to fetch <3947 laqach > it.
:6 And when she had opened <6605 pathach > [it], she saw <7200 ra>ah > the child <3206 yeled >:and, behold <2009 hinneh >, the babe <5288 na<ar > wept <1058 bakah >. And she had compassion <2550 chamal > on <5921 <al > him, and said <0559 >amar >, This <2088 zeh > [is one] of the Hebrews <5680 <Ibriy >' children <3206 yeled >.
:7 Then said <0559 >amar > his sister <0269 >achowth > to Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > daughter <1323 bath >, Shall I go <3212 yalak > and call <7121 qara> > to thee a nurse <3243 yanaq > of the Hebrew <5680 <Ibriy > women, that she may nurse <3243 yanaq > the child <3206 yeled > for thee?
:8 And Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > daughter <1323 bath > said <0559 >amar > to her, Go <3212 yalak >. And the maid <5959 <almah > went <3212 yalak > and called <7121 qara> > the child's <3206 yeled > mother <0517 >em >.
:9 And Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > daughter <1323 bath > said <0559 >amar > unto her, Take <3212 yalak > this <2088 zeh > child <3206 yeled > away, and nurse <3243 yanaq > it for me, and I will give <5414 nathan > [thee] thy wages <7939 sakar >. And the woman <0802 >ishshah > took <3947 laqach > the child <3206 yeled >, and nursed <5134 nuwq > it.
:10 And the child <3206 yeled > grew <1431 gadal >, and she brought <0935 bow> > him unto Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > daughter <1323 bath >, and he became <1961 hayah > her son <1121 ben >. And she called <7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem > Moses <4872 Mosheh >:and she said <0559 >amar >, Because <3588 kiy > I drew <4871 mashah > him out of the water <4325 mayim >.
:11. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in those <1992 hem > days <3117 yowm >, when Moses <4872 Mosheh > was grown <1431 gadal >, that he went <3318 yatsa> > out unto his brethren <0251 >ach >, and looked <7200 ra>ah > on their burdens <5450 c@balah >:and he spied <7200 ra>ah > an Egyptian <4713 Mitsriy > smiting <5221 nakah > an Hebrew <5680 <Ibriy >, one of his brethren <0251 >ach >.
:12 And he looked <6437 panah > this <3541 koh > way <3541 koh > and that way <3541 koh >, and when he saw <7200 ra>ah > that [there was] no <0369 >ayin > man <0376 >iysh >, he slew <5221 nakah > the Egyptian <4713 Mitsriy >, and hid <2934 taman > him in the sand <2344 chowl >.
:13 And when he went <3318 yatsa> > out the second <8145 sheniy > day <3117 yowm >, behold <2009 hinneh >, two <8147 sh@nayim > men <0582 >enowsh > of the Hebrews <5680 <Ibriy > strove <5327 natsah > together:and he said <0559 >amar > to him that did the wrong <7563 rasha< >, Wherefore <4100 mah > smitest <5221 nakah > thou thy fellow <7453 rea< >?
:14 And he said <0559 >amar >, Who <4310 miy > made <7760 suwm > thee a prince <8269 sar > and a judge <8199 shaphat > over <5921 <al > us? intendest <0559 >amar > thou to kill <2026 harag > me, as thou killedst <2026 harag > the Egyptian <4713 Mitsriy >? And Moses <4872 Mosheh > feared <3372 yare> >, and said <0559 >amar >, Surely <0403 >aken > this thing <1697 dabar > is known <3045 yada< >.
:15 Now when Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > heard <8085 shama< > this <2088 zeh > thing <1697 dabar >, he sought <1245 baqash > to slay <2026 harag > Moses <4872 Mosheh >. But Moses <4872 Mosheh > fled <1272 barach > from the face <6440 paniym > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, and dwelt <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets > of Midian <4080 Midyan >:and he sat <3427 yashab > down by a well <0875 @>er >.
:16. Now the priest <3548 kohen > of Midian <4080 Midyan > had seven <7651 sheba< > daughters <1121 ben >:and they came <0935 bow> > and drew <1802 dalah > [water], and filled <4390 male> > the troughs <7298 rahat > to water <8248 shaqah > their father's <1> flock <6629 tso>n >.
:17 And the shepherds <7462 ra<ah > came <0935 bow> > and drove <1644 garash > them away:but Moses <4872 Mosheh > stood <6965 quwm > up and helped <3467 yasha< > them, and watered <8248 shaqah > their flock <6629 tso>n >.
:18 And when they came <0935 bow> > to Reuel <7467 R@<uw>el > their father <1>, he said <0559 >amar >, How <4069 madduwa< > [is it that] ye are come <0935 bow> > so soon <4116 mahar > to day <3117 yowm >?
:19 And they said <0559 >amar >, An Egyptian <4713 Mitsriy > delivered <5337 natsal > us out of the hand <3027 yad > of the shepherds <7462 ra<ah >, and also <1571 gam > drew <1802 dalah > [water] enough for us, and watered <8248 shaqah > the flock <6629 tso>n >.
:20 And he said <0559 >amar > unto his daughters <1121 ben >, And where <0346 >ayeh > [is] he? why <4100 mah > [is] it [that] ye have left <5800 <azab > the man <0376 >iysh >? call <7121 qara> > him, that he may eat <0398 >akal > bread <3899 lechem >.
:21 And Moses <4872 Mosheh > was content <2974 ya>al > to dwell <3427 yashab > with the man <0376 >iysh >:and he gave <5414 nathan > Moses <4872 Mosheh > Zipporah <3855 Lahad > his daughter <1323 bath >.
:22 And she bare <3205 yalad > [him] a son <1121 ben >, and he called <7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem > Gershom <1648 Ger@shown >:for he said <0559 >amar >, I have been <1961 hayah > a stranger <1616 ger > in a strange <5237 nokriy > land <0776 >erets >.
:23. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in process <7227 rab > of time <3117 yowm >, that the king <4428 melek > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > died <4191 muwth >:and the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > sighed <0584 >anach > by reason <4480 min > of the bondage <5656 <abodah >, and they cried <2199 za<aq >, and their cry <7775 shav<ah > came <5927 <alah > up unto God <0430 >elohiym > by reason <4480 min > of the bondage <5656 <abodah >.
:24 And God <0430 >elohiym > heard <8085 shama< > their groaning <5009 n@>aqah >, and God <0430 >elohiym > remembered <2142 zakar > his covenant <1285 b@riyth > with Abraham <85>, with Isaac <3327 Yitschaq >, and with Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >.
:25 And God <0430 >elohiym > looked <7200 ra>ah > upon the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, and God <0430 >elohiym > had respect <3045 yada< > unto [them].
:Exodus 3
:1. Now Moses <4872 Mosheh > kept <7462 ra<ah > the flock <6629 tso>n > of Jethro <3503 Yithrow > his father <2859 chathan > in law <2859 chathan >, the priest <3548 kohen > of Midian <4080 Midyan >:and he led <5090 nahag > the flock <6629 tso>n > to the backside <0310 >achar > of the desert <4057 midbar >, and came <0935 bow> > to the mountain <2022 har > of God <0430 >elohiym >, [even] to Horeb <2722 Choreb >.
:2 And the angel <4397 mal>ak > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > appeared <7200 ra>ah > unto him in a flame <3827 labbah > of fire <0784 >esh > out of the midst <8432 tavek > of a bush <5572 c@nah >:and he looked <7200 ra>ah >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >, the bush <5572 c@nah > burned <1197 ba<ar > with fire <0784 >esh >, and the bush <5572 c@nah > [was] not consumed <0398 >akal >.
:3 And Moses <4872 Mosheh > said <0559 >amar >, I will now <4994 na> > turn <5493 cuwr > aside, and see <7200 ra>ah > this <2088 zeh > great <1419 gadowl > sight <4758 mar>eh >, why <4069 madduwa< > the bush <5572 c@nah > is not burnt <1197 ba<ar >.
:4 And when the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > saw <7200 ra>ah > that he turned <5493 cuwr > aside to see <7200 ra>ah >, God <0430 >elohiym > called <7121 qara> > unto him out of the midst <8432 tavek > of the bush <5572 c@nah >, and said <0559 >amar >, Moses <4872 Mosheh >, Moses <4872 Mosheh >. And he said <0559 >amar >, Here <2009 hinneh > [am] I.
:5 And he said <0559 >amar >, Draw not nigh <7126 qarab > hither <1988 halom >:put <5394 nashal > off thy shoes <5275 na<al > from off thy feet <7272 regel >, for the place <4725 maqowm > whereon thou standest <5975 <amad > [is] holy <6944 qodesh > ground <0127 >adamah >.
:6 Moreover he said <0559 >amar >, I [am] the God <0430 >elohiym > of thy father <1>, the God <0430 >elohiym > of Abraham <85>, the God <0430 >elohiym > of Isaac <3327 Yitschaq >, and the God <0430 >elohiym > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >. And Moses <4872 Mosheh > hid <5641 cathar > his face <6440 paniym >; for he was afraid <3372 yare> > to look <5027 nabat > upon God <0430 >elohiym >.
:7. And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar >, I have surely seen <7200 ra>ah > the affliction <6040 <oniy > of my people <5971 <am > which <0834 >aher > [are] in Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, and have heard <8085 shama< > their cry <6818 tsa<aqah > by reason <6440 paniym > of their taskmasters <5065 nagas >; for I know <3045 yada< > their sorrows <4341 mak>ob >;
:8 And I am come <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > to deliver <5337 natsal > them out of the hand <3027 yad > of the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim >, and to bring <5927 <alah > them up out of that land <0776 >erets > unto a good <2896 towb > land <0776 >erets > and a large <7342 rachab >, unto a land <0776 >erets > flowing <2100 zuwb > with milk <2461 chalab > and honey <1706 d@bash >; unto the place <4725 maqowm > of the Canaanites <3669 K@na<aniy >, and the Hittites <2850 Chittiy >, and the Amorites <0567 >Emoriy >, and the Perizzites <6522 P@rizziy >, and the Hivites <2340 Chivviy >, and the Jebusites <2983 Yebuwciy >.
:9 Now <6258 <attah > therefore, behold <2009 hinneh >, the cry <6818 tsa<aqah > of the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > is come <0935 bow> > unto me:and I have also <1571 gam > seen <7200 ra>ah > the oppression <3906 lachats > wherewith <0834 >aher > the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > oppress <3905 lachats > them.
:10 Come <3212 yalak > now <6258 <attah > therefore, and I will send <7971 shalach > thee unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, that thou mayest bring <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > my people <5971 <am > the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > out of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.
:11. And Moses <4872 Mosheh > said <0559 >amar > unto God <0430 >elohiym >, Who <4310 miy > [am] I, that I should go <3212 yalak > unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, and that I should bring <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > out of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >?
:12 And he said <0559 >amar >, Certainly <3588 kiy > I will be with thee; and this [shall be] a token <0226 >owth > unto thee, that I have sent <7971 shalach > thee:When thou hast brought <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > the people <5971 <am > out of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, ye shall serve <5647 <abad > God <0430 >elohiym > upon this mountain <2022 har >.
