1  ✡ 1:1: Start 46:8-27Dis da names fo da Israel boys dat wen go Egypt side wit dea faddah Jacob an dea ohanas:

5 Joseph, he awready stay Egypt side, da time all da ohanas wen go dea. Had seventy peopo from Jacob ohana dat wen go Egypt wit him.

6 Laytas, Joseph mahke, an all his braddah guys too, an all da peopo from dat time. 7  ✡ 1:7: JGuys 7:17But da Israel ohana peopo (az Jacob dem), dey get plenny kids an grankids. Dey come choke plenny peopo an dey fill up da land.

8  ✡ 1:8: JGuys 7:18Long time afta, had one new king dat take ova da Egypt peopo. Dat king, he neva know notting bout Joseph an wat he wen do. 9 Da king tell his peopo, “You know wat?! Dat Israel ohana peopo, dey stay come so plenny dat dey awready mo strong den us guys. 10  ✡ 1:10: JGuys 7:19So! Us guys gotta be smart fo figga how fo make shua dey no come mo plenny. Cuz bumbye if get war, no good if dey go help da guys dat fight us, an afta dat, dey go outa oua land.”

11 So da Egypt peopo make da Israel peopo dea slave guys. Dey give um mean kine luna guys. Dey give um real plenny work, an make dem feel jalike dey notting. Was da Israel peopo dat wen build two towns wit plenny warehouse inside fo da Pharaoh guy (dass how dey call da king guy fo Egypt, you know). Da towns, dey give um da name Pitom an Ramses. 12 But no matta da Egypt peopo still give da Israel peopo real hard time erytime, da Israel peopo come mo plenny still yet. Erytime da Egypt guys see one Israel guy, bodda dem plenny an make dem sked.

13 Dass why da Egypt peopo make da Israel peopo do slave kine work, an make um bus ass. 14 Da Egypt peopo no give da Israel peopo chance notting. Dey make um make plenny mud fo make brick, an dey make um work long day inside da fields. An if dey no do dat, da Egypt peopo bus um up.

15 Had two Israel wahines, Shifrah an Puah. Dey help da odda Israel wahines wen dey born dea bebes. Da king fo Egypt tell um, 16 “Erytime wen you stay help da Israel wahines born one bebe, an you see um ova dea on top da spesho stone fo born one bebe, if get boy kine, kill um! If get girl kine, let um live.” 17 But da helpa wahines, dey mo sked fo go agains God. Az why dey neva do wat da king guy tell um fo do. Dey let da boy kine bebes live too.

18 Laytas, da king guy tell da helpa wahines fo come by him. He tell um, “Wassamatta wit you!? How come you guys stay do dis ting, hah!? How come you stay let da boys live!?”

19 Da helpa wahines, dey tell da Pharaoh guy, “Eh, you know, da Israel wahines, dey not slow like da Egypt wahines. Befo us guys can get dea fo help dem, da bebe born awready!”

20 God, he do good tings fo da helpa wahines cuz a wat dey wen do. Cuz dey no kill da boys, da Israel peopo come mo plenny an dey come real strong. 21 An cuz da helpa wahines mo sked a God den dey sked a da king, God give dem kids fo dem start dea ohana too.

22  ✡ 1:22: JGuys 7:19Den, da Pharaoh guy tell all his peopo, “All da small boy kine bebes from da Israel peopo, throw um inside da Nile Riva! But da girl kine, let um live.”
