Éxodo 1

São estes os nomes dos filhos de Israel que entraram com Jacó no Egito, com suas respectivas famílias:

ESTOS son los nombres de los hijos de Israel, que entraron en Egipto con Jacob; cada uno entró con su familia.

Now these are the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt; every man and his household came with Jacob.

O número total de descendentes de Jacó foi setenta. José, porém, já estava no Egito.

Y todas las almas de los que salieron del muslo de Jacob, fueron setenta. Y José estaba en Egipto.

And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt already.

Passou o tempo, e morreram José, seus irmãos, e toda aquela geração.

And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that generation.

Mas os filhos de Israel eram muito férteis, e tornaram-se muito numerosos e fortaleceram-se grandemente, de maneira que encheram aquela terra.

Y los hijos de Israel crecieron, y multiplicaron, y fueron aumentados y corroborados en extremo; y llenóse la tierra de ellos.

And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was filled with them.

The children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and grew exceedingly mighty; and the land was filled with them.

Nesse meio-tempo, um novo rei que não conhecia José subiu ao trono do Egito.

Levantóse entretanto un nuevo rey sobre Egipto, que no conocía á José; el cual dijo á su pueblo:

Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph.

Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who didn’t know Joseph.

O novo rei disse ao povo: “Vejam! O povo israelita é muito numeroso e mais forte do que nós!

He aquí, el pueblo de los hijos de Israel es mayor y más fuerte que nosotros:

And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we:

He said to his people, “Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we.

Precisamos ser astutos para com esse povo, para que não se tornem mais numerosos ainda e, em caso de guerra, não se aliem aos nossos inimigos, pelejem contra nós e sejamos forçados a fugir do país”.

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.

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.

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.”

Então colocaram sobre eles mestres de obras para forçarem os israelitas a trabalhos pesados. E assim os israelitas construíram para o faraó as cidades-celeiro de Pitom e Ramessés.

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.

Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses.

Therefore they set taskmasters over them to afflict them with their burdens. They built storage cities for Pharaoh: Pithom and Raamses.

No entanto, quanto mais os maltratavam, mais eles se multiplicavam e se espalhavam, de maneira que os egípcios passaram a ficar com medo dos israelitas.

Empero cuanto más los oprimían, tanto más se multiplicaban y crecían: así que estaban ellos fastidiados de los hijos de Israel.

But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they were grieved because of the children of Israel.

But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and the more they spread out. They started to dread the children of Israel.

Então os egípcios os sujeitaram a uma escravidão severa.

Y los Egipcios hicieron servir á los hijos de Israel con dureza:

And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with rigour:

The Egyptians ruthlessly made the children of Israel serve,

Tornaram a vida deles amarga, impondo-lhes o árduo trabalho de preparar o barro para fazer tijolos, além de todo o trabalho no campo. Em todas as situações, os israelitas eram sujeitados a uma cruel escravidão.

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.

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.

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.

O rei do Egito deu ordens às parteiras hebreias, entre elas Sifrá e Puá, dizendo:

Y habló el rey de Egipto á las parteras de las Hebreas, una de las cuales se llamaba Siphra, y otra Phúa, y díjoles:

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:

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,

“Quando vocês ajudarem as mulheres hebreias a dar à luz, façam o seguinte: se for menino, matem-no; se for menina, deixem-na viver”.

Cuando parteareis á las Hebreas, y mirareis los asientos, si fuere hijo, matadlo; y si fuere hija, entonces viva.

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.

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.”

Mas as parteiras temiam a Deus e não obedeceram às ordens do rei do Egito. Elas deixavam os meninos viver também.

Mas las parteras temieron á Dios, y no hicieron como les mandó el rey de Egipto, sino que reservaban la vida á los niños.

But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive.

But the midwives feared God, and didn’t do what the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the baby boys alive.

Então o rei do Egito mandou chamar as duas parteiras e perguntou-lhes: “Por que vocês fizeram isso? Por que deixaram os meninos viver?”

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?

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?

The king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said to them, “Why have you done this thing and saved the boys alive?”

As parteiras responderam ao faraó: “As mulheres hebreias não são como as egípcias. Elas são cheias de saúde e dão à luz antes que chegue a parteira”.

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.

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.

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.”

Deus abençoou as parteiras; e o povo continuou crescendo, e se tornou cada vez mais forte.

Y Dios hizo bien á las parteras: y el pueblo se multiplicó, y se corroboraron en gran manera.

Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied, and waxed very mighty.

God dealt well with the midwives, and the people multiplied, and grew very mighty.

Como as parteiras temeram a Deus, ele foi bom com elas e fez com que tivessem suas próprias famílias.

Y por haber las parteras temido á Dios, él les hizo casas.

And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made them houses.

Because the midwives feared God, he gave them families.

Então, o faraó ordenou a todo o seu povo: “Joguem no rio Nilo todos os meninos hebreus recém-nascidos. Só deixem viver as meninas”.

Entonces Faraón mandó á todo su pueblo, diciendo: Echad en el río todo hijo que naciere, y á toda hija reservad la vida.

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.

Pharaoh commanded all his people, saying, “You shall cast every son who is born into the river, and every daughter you shall save alive.”
