Exodus 1
1 These are the names of the children of Israel, that went into Egypt with Jacob: they went in, every man with his household:
Dagitoy dagiti nagan dagiti annak ti Israel a kimmuyog kenni Jacob a napan idiay Egipto, kadua ti tunggal maysa ti sangkabalayanna:
2 Ruben, Simeon, Levi, Juda,
Ruben, Simeon, Levi ken Juda,
3 Issachar, Zabulon, and Benjamin,
Isacar, Zabulon ken Benjamin,
4 Dan, and Nephtali, Gad and Aser.
Dan, Naftali, Gad ken Aser.
5 And all the souls that came out of Jacob’s thigh, were seventy: but Joseph was in Egypt.
Pitopulo amin ti bilang dagiti kaputotan ni Jacob. Adda idin ni Jose idiay Egipto.
6 After he was dead, and all his brethren, and all that generation,
Ket natay ni Jose, dagiti amin a kakabsatna, ken amin dayta a henerasion.
7 The children of Israel increased, and sprung up into multitudes, and growing exceedingly strong they filled the land.
Nabunga dagiti Israelita, immadu ken pimmigsada iti kasta unay; napunno ti daga kadakuada.
8 In the mean time there arose a new king over Egypt, that knew not 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: Behold the people of the children of Israel are numerous and stronger than we.
Kinunana kadagiti tattaona, “Kitaenyo dagiti Israelita; ad-adu ken napigpigsada ngem datayo.
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.
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 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.
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 they oppressed them, the more they were multiplied, and increased:
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 the Egyptians hated the children of Israel, and afflicted them and mocked them:
Pinagtrabaho dagiti Egipcio dagiti Israelita iti nakaro.
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.
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 spoke to the midwives of the Hebrews: of whom one was called Sephora, the other Phua,
Ket nakisarita ti ari iti Egipto kadagiti partera a Hebreo; ti nagan ti maysa ket Zifra ken ti maysa ket Pua.
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.
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 midwives feared God, and did not do as the king of Egypt had commanded, but saved the men children.
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 called for them and said: What is that you meant to do, that you would save the men children?
Pinaayaban ti ari ti Egipto dagiti partera ket kinunana kadakuada, “Apay a binay-anyo nga agbiag dagiti lallaki a maladaga?”
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.
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 Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied and grew exceedingly strong.
Sinalakniban ti Dios dagitoy a partera. Immadu ti dagiti tattao ken pimmigsada iti kasta unay.
21 And because the midwives feared God, he built them houses.
Gapu ta managbuteng iti Dios dagiti partera, inikkanna ida iti pamilia.
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.
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.”
