Exodus 1
1 Now these are the names of the sons of Israel who came into Egypt; every man and his family came with Jacob.
Dagitoy dagiti nagan dagiti annak ti Israel a kimmuyog kenni Jacob a napan idiay Egipto, kadua ti tunggal maysa ti sangkabalayanna:
2 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah;
Ruben, Simeon, Levi ken Juda,
3 Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin;
Isacar, Zabulon ken Benjamin,
4 Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher.
Dan, Naftali, Gad ken Aser.
5 All the offspring of Jacob were seventy persons: and Joseph had come to Egypt before them.
Pitopulo amin ti bilang dagiti kaputotan ni Jacob. Adda idin ni Jose idiay Egipto.
6 Then Joseph came to his end, and all his brothers, and all that generation.
Ket natay ni Jose, dagiti amin a kakabsatna, ken amin dayta a henerasion.
7 And the children of Israel were fertile, increasing very greatly in numbers and in power; and the land was full of them.
Nabunga dagiti Israelita, immadu ken pimmigsada iti kasta unay; napunno ti daga kadakuada.
8 Now a new king came to power in Egypt, who had no knowledge of Joseph.
Ket nagturay ti maysa a baro nga ari iti entero nga Egipto, a saan a mangbigbigbig iti pakasaritaan ni Jose.
9 And he said to his people, See, the people of Israel are greater in number and in power than we are:
Kinunana kadagiti tattaona, “Kitaenyo dagiti Israelita; ad-adu ken napigpigsada ngem datayo.
10 Let us take care for fear that their numbers may become even greater, and if there is a war, they may be joined with those who are against us, and make an attack on us, and go up out of the land.
Umaykayo, tratoentayo ida a sisisirib. Ta no saan, ad-adda nga umaduda, ket no adda iti gubat, tumiponndanto kadagiti kabusortayo, a lumaban kadatayo, ket pumanawda iti daga.”
11 So they put overseers of forced work over them, in order to make their strength less by the weight of their work. And they made store-towns for Pharaoh, Pithom and Raamses.
Isu a nangisaadda kadagiti kapatas a mangparigat kadakuada iti nadagsen a trabaho. Nangipatakder dagiti Israelita iti pagipenpenan a siudad para kenni Faraon: ti Pitom ken Rameses.
12 But the more cruel they were to them, the more their number increased, till all the land was full of them. And the children of Israel were hated by the Egyptians.
Ngem kas ad-adda a parparigaten dagiti Egipcio ida, ad-adda met nga umad-adu ken agwar-waras dagiti Israelita. Isu a nangrugi nga agbuteng dagiti Egipcio kadagiti Israelita.
13 And they gave the children of Israel even harder work to do:
Pinagtrabaho dagiti Egipcio dagiti Israelita iti nakaro.
14 And made their lives bitter with hard work, making building-material and bricks, and doing all sorts of work in the fields under the hardest conditions.
Pinagbalinda a nasaem ti panagbiagda babaen iti nadagsen a panagtrabaho iti alketran ken ladrilio, ken iti amin a kita ti trabaho iti talon. Amin a trabaho nga impaaramidda kadakuada ket narigat.
15 And the king of Egypt said to the Hebrew women who gave help at the time of childbirth (the name of the one was Shiphrah and the name of the other Puah),
Ket nakisarita ti ari iti Egipto kadagiti partera a Hebreo; ti nagan ti maysa ket Zifra ken ti maysa ket Pua.
16 When you are looking after the Hebrew women in childbirth, if it is a son you are to put him to death; but if it is a daughter, she may go on living.
Kinunana, “No tulonganyo dagiti Hebreo a babbai iti paganakan, siputanyo no aganakda. No lalaki ti maladaga, masapul a patayenyo isuna; ngem no babai daytoy, bay-anyo nga agbiag.”
17 But the women had the fear of God, and did not do as the king of Egypt said, but let the male children go on living.
Ngem adda panagbuteng dagiti partera iti Dios ket saanda nga inaramid ti imbilin ti ari iti Egipto kadakuada; ngem ketdi, binay-anda nga agbiag dagiti lallaki a maladaga.
18 And the king of Egypt sent for the women, and said to them, Why have you done this, and let the male children go on living?
Pinaayaban ti ari ti Egipto dagiti partera ket kinunana kadakuada, “Apay a binay-anyo nga agbiag dagiti lallaki a maladaga?”
19 And they said to Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women, for they are strong, and the birth takes place before we come to them.
Simmungbat dagiti partera kenni Faraon, “Dagiti babbai a Hebreo ket saan a kasla kadagiti babbai nga Egipcio; napigsada ken nakaanakdan sakbay a sumangpet ti partera kadakuada.”
20 And the blessing of God was on these women: and the people were increased in number and became very strong.
Sinalakniban ti Dios dagitoy a partera. Immadu ti dagiti tattao ken pimmigsada iti kasta unay.
21 And because the women who took care of the Hebrew mothers had the fear of God, he gave them families.
Gapu ta managbuteng iti Dios dagiti partera, inikkanna ida iti pamilia.
22 And Pharaoh gave orders to all his people, saying, Every son who comes to birth is to be put into the river, but every daughter may go on living.
Binilin ni Faraon dagiti amin a tattaona, “Masapul nga ibellengyo iti karayan ti tunggal lalaki a maiyanak, ngem mabalinyo a bay-an nga agbiag ti tunggal babai.”
