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 exceedingly fruitful; they multiplied greatly, increased in numbers and became so numerous that the land was filled with them.

8. Then a new king, to whom Joseph meant nothing, came to power in Egypt.

9. “Look,” he said to his people, “the Israelites have become far too numerous for us.
