Shemot 1:3-10 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

3. Yissakhar, Zevulun, and Binyamin,

4. Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.

5. And all the nefesh that came out of the loins of Ya'akov were seventy nefesh; for Yosef was in Mitzrayim already.

6. And Yosef died, and all his achim, and all that generation.

7. And the Bnei Yisroel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and became exceeding strong; and the land was filled with them.

8. Now there arose a melech chadash over Mitzrayim, which had no da'as of Yosef.

9. And he said unto his people, Hinei, the Am Bnei Yisroel are more and stronger than we.

10. Come, let us outsmart them; lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any milchamah, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out of the land.
