15. “And Ya‛aqoḇ went down to Mitsrayim, and died, he and our fathers,

16. and they were brought over to Sheḵem and laid in the tomb that Aḇraham bought for a price of silver from the sons of Ḥamor, the father of Sheḵem.

17. “But as the time of the promise drew near which Elohim had sworn to Aḇraham, the people increased and multiplied in Mitsrayim

18. until another sovereign arose who did not know Yosĕph.

19. “Having dealt treacherously with our race, this one mistreated our fathers, making them expose their babies, so that they should not live.

20. “At that time Mosheh was born, and he was well-pleasing to Elohim. And he was reared three months in the house of his father.
