NIV Exodus 1:1-13
1. These are the names of the sons of Israel who went to Egypt with Jacob, each with his family:
2. Reuben, Simeon, Levi and Judah;
3. Issachar, Zebulun and Benjamin;
4. Dan and Naphtali; Gad and Asher.
5. The descendants of Jacob numbered seventy in all; Joseph was already in Egypt.
6. Now Joseph and all his brothers and all that generation died,
7. but the Israelites were fruitful and multiplied greatly and became exceedingly numerous, so that the land was filled with them.
8. Then a new king, who did not know about Joseph, came to power in Egypt.
9. "Look," he said to his people, "the Israelites have become much too numerous for us.
10. Come, we must deal shrewdly with them or they will become even more numerous and, if war breaks out, will join our enemies, fight against us and leave the country."
11. So they put slave masters over them to oppress them with forced labor, and they built Pithom and Rameses as store cities for Pharaoh.
12. But the more they were oppressed, the more they multiplied and spread; so the Egyptians came to dread the Israelites
13. and worked them ruthlessly.
NIV Exodus 12:43-51
43. The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, "These are the regulations for the Passover: "No foreigner is to eat of it.
44. Any slave you have bought may eat of it after you have circumcised him,
45. but a temporary resident and a hired worker may not eat of it.
46. "It must be eaten inside one house; take none of the meat outside the house. Do not break any of the bones.
47. The whole community of Israel must celebrate it.
48. "An alien living among you who wants to celebrate the LORD's Passover must have all the males in his household circumcised; then he may take part like one born in the land. No uncircumcised male may eat of it.
49. The same law applies to the native-born and to the alien living among you."
50. All the Israelites did just what the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron.
51. And on that very day the LORD brought the Israelites out of Egypt by their divisions.
