KING JAMES BIBLENOVA VULGATA
1 Now these are the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt; every man and his household came with Jacob.1 Haec sunt nomina filiorum Is rael, qui ingressi sunt Aegyp tum cum Iacob; singuli cum domibus suis introierunt:
2 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,2 Ruben, Simeon, Levi, Iuda,
3 Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,3 Issachar, Zabulon et Beniamin,
4 Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.4 Dan et Nephthali, Gad et Aser.
5 And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt already.5 Erant igitur omnes animae eorum, qui egressi sunt de femore Iacob, septuaginta; Ioseph autem in Aegypto erat.
6 And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that generation.6 Quo mortuo et universis fratribus eius omnique cognatione illa,
7 And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was filled with them.7 filii Israel creverunt et pullulantes multiplicati sunt ac roborati nimis impleverunt terram.
8 Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph.8 Surrexit interea rex novus super Aegyptum, qui ignorabat Ioseph;
9 And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we:9 et ait ad populum suum: “ Ecce, populus filiorum Israel multus et fortior nobis est;
10 Come on, let us deal wisely with them; lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out of the land.10 venite, prudenter agamus cum eo, ne forte multiplicetur et, si ingruerit contra nos bellum, addatur inimicis nostris, expugnatisque nobis, egrediatur de terra ”.
11 Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses.11 Praeposuit itaque eis magistros operum, ut affligerent eos oneribus; aedificaveruntque urbes promptuarias pharaoni, Phithom et Ramesses.
12 But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they were grieved because of the children of Israel.12 Quantoque opprimebant eos, tanto magis multiplicabantur et crescebant.
13 And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with rigour:13 Formidaveruntque filios Israel Aegyptii et in servitutem redegerunt eos
14 And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage, in morter, and in brick, and in all manner of service in the field: all their service, wherein they made them serve, was with rigour.14 atque ad amaritudinem perducebant vitam eorum operibus duris luti et lateris omnique famulatu, quo in terrae operibus premebantur.
15 And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah:15 Dixit autem rex Aegypti obstetricibus Hebraeorum, quarum una vocabatur Sephra, altera Phua,
16 And he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye shall kill him: but if it be a daughter, then she shall live.16 praecipiens eis: “ Quando obstetricabitis Hebraeas, et partus tempus advenerit, si masculus fuerit, interficite eum; si femina, reservate ”.
17 But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive.17 Timuerunt autem obstetrices Deum et non fecerunt iuxta praeceptum regis Aegypti, sed conservabant mares.
18 And the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said unto them, Why have ye done this thing, and have saved the men children alive?18 Quibus ad se accersitis rex ait: “ Quidnam est hoc, quod facere voluistis, ut pueros servaretis? ”.
19 And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women; for they are lively, and are delivered ere the midwives come in unto them.19 Quae responderunt: “ Non sunt Hebraeae sicut Aegyptiae mulieres; ipsae enim robustae sunt et, priusquam veniamus ad eas, pariunt ”.
20 Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied, and waxed very mighty.20 Bene ergo fecit Deus obstetricibus, et crevit populus confortatusque est nimis;
21 And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made them houses.21 et, quia timuerunt obstetrices Deum, aedificavit illis domos.
22 And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive.22 Praecepit ergo pharao omni populo suo dicens: “ Quidquid masculini sexus natum fuerit, in flumen proicite; quidquid feminei, reservate ”.
