7 The children of Israel increased, and sprung up into multitudes, and growing exceedingly strong they filled the land. 7 Y los hijos de Israel crecieron, y multiplicaron, y fueron aumentados y corroborados en extremo; y llenóse la tierra de ellos.
7 The children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and grew exceedingly mighty; and the land was filled with them.
8 In the mean time there arose a new king over Egypt, that knew not Joseph: 8 Levantóse entretanto un nuevo rey sobre Egipto, que no conocía á José; el cual dijo á su pueblo:
8 Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who didn’t know Joseph.
9 And he said to his people: Behold the people of the children of Israel are numerous and stronger than we. 9 He aquí, el pueblo de los hijos de Israel es mayor y más fuerte que nosotros:
9 He said to his people, “Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we.
10 Come, let us wisely oppress them, lest they multiply: and if any war shall rise against us, join with our enemies, and having overcome us, depart out of the land. 10 Ahora, pues, seamos sabios para con él, porque no se multiplique, y acontezca que viniendo guerra, él también se junte con nuestros enemigos, y pelee contra nosotros, y se vaya de la tierra.
10 Come, let’s deal wisely with them, lest they multiply, and it happen that when any war breaks out, they also join themselves to our enemies and fight against us, and escape out of the land.”
11 Therefore he set over them masters of the works, to afflict them with burdens, and they built for Pharao cities of tabernacles, Phithom and Ramesses. 11 Entonces pusieron sobre él comisarios de tributos que los molestasen con sus cargas; y edificaron á Faraón las ciudades de los bastimentos, Phithom y Raamses.
11 Therefore they set taskmasters over them to afflict them with their burdens. They built storage cities for Pharaoh: Pithom and Raamses.
12 But the more they oppressed them, the more they were multiplied, and increased: 12 Empero cuanto más los oprimían, tanto más se multiplicaban y crecían: así que estaban ellos fastidiados de los hijos de Israel.
12 But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and the more they spread out. They started to dread the children of Israel.
13 And the Egyptians hated the children of Israel, and afflicted them and mocked them: 13 Y los Egipcios hicieron servir á los hijos de Israel con dureza:
13 The Egyptians ruthlessly made the children of Israel serve,
14 And they made their life bitter with hard works in clay, and brick, and with all manner of service, wherewith they were overcharged in the works of the earth. 14 Y amargaron su vida con dura servidumbre, en [hacer] barro y ladrillo, y en toda labor del campo, y en todo su servicio, al cual los obligaban con rigorismo.
14 and they made their lives bitter with hard service in mortar and in brick, and in all kinds of service in the field, all their service, in which they ruthlessly made them serve.
15 And the king of Egypt spoke to the midwives of the Hebrews: of whom one was called Sephora, the other Phua, 15 Y habló el rey de Egipto á las parteras de las Hebreas, una de las cuales se llamaba Siphra, y otra Phúa, y díjoles:
15 The king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, of whom the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah,
16 Commanding them: When you shall do the office of midwives to the Hebrew women, and the time of delivery is come: if it be a man child, kill it: if a woman, keep it alive. 16 Cuando parteareis á las Hebreas, y mirareis los asientos, si fuere hijo, matadlo; y si fuere hija, entonces viva.
16 and he said, “When you perform the duty of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them on the birth stool, if it is a son, then you shall kill him; but if it is a daughter, then she shall live.”
17 But the midwives feared God, and did not do as the king of Egypt had commanded, but saved the men children. 17 Mas las parteras temieron á Dios, y no hicieron como les mandó el rey de Egipto, sino que reservaban la vida á los niños.
17 But the midwives feared God, and didn’t do what the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the baby boys alive.
18 And the king called for them and said: What is that you meant to do, that you would save the men children? 18 Y el rey de Egipto hizo llamar á las parteras, y díjoles: Por qué habéis hecho esto, que habéis reservado la vida á los niños?
18 The king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said to them, “Why have you done this thing and saved the boys alive?”
19 They answered: The Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women: for they themselves are skillful in the office of a midwife; and they are delivered before we come to them. 19 Y las parteras respondieron á Faraón: Porque las mujeres Hebreas no son como las Egipcias: porque son robustas, y paren antes que la partera venga á ellas.
19 The midwives said to Pharaoh, “Because the Hebrew women aren’t like the Egyptian women; for they are vigorous and give birth before the midwife comes to them.”
20 Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied and grew exceedingly strong. 20 Y Dios hizo bien á las parteras: y el pueblo se multiplicó, y se corroboraron en gran manera.
20 God dealt well with the midwives, and the people multiplied, and grew very mighty.
21 And because the midwives feared God, he built them houses. 21 Y por haber las parteras temido á Dios, él les hizo casas.
21 Because the midwives feared God, he gave them families.
22 Pharao therefore charged all his people, saying: Whatsoever shall be born of the male sex, ye shall cast into the river: whatsoever of the female, ye shall save alive. 22 Entonces Faraón mandó á todo su pueblo, diciendo: Echad en el río todo hijo que naciere, y á toda hija reservad la vida.
22 Pharaoh commanded all his people, saying, “You shall cast every son who is born into the river, and every daughter you shall save alive.”
