The Israelites Oppressed

Exodus 1:8-14

The Israelites Oppressed

8
Then there rose vp a newe King in Egypt, who knewe not Ioseph.
9
And he sayde vnto his people, Beholde, the people of the children of Israel are greater and mightier then we.
10
Come, let vs worke wisely with them, least they multiplie, and it come to passe, that if there be warre, they ioyne them selues also vnto our enemies, and fight against vs, and get them out of the land.
11
Therefore did they set taskemasters ouer them, to keepe the vnder with burdens: and they built the cities Pithom and Raamses for the treasures of Pharaoh.
12
But the more they vexed them, the more they multiplied and grewe: therefore they were more grieued against the children of Israel.
13
Wherefore the Egyptians by crueltie caused the children of Israel to serue.
14
Thus they made them weary of their liues by sore labour in clay and in bricke, and in al worke in the fielde, with all maner of bondage, which they layde vpon them most cruelly.
