1 Now athese are the names of the children of Israel who came to Egypt; each man and his household came with Jacob:
2 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah;
3 Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin;
4 Dan, Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.
5 All those1 who were descendants of Jacob were aseventy persons (for Joseph was in Egypt already).
6 And aJoseph died, all his brothers, and all that generation.
7 aBut the children of Israel were fruitful and increased abundantly, multiplied and1 grew exceedingly mighty; and the land was filled with them.
8 Now there arose a new king over Egypt, awho did not know Joseph.
