Exodus 1:7-11
7
And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 were fruitful, H6509 and increased H8317 abundantly, H8317 and multiplied, H7235 and waxed exceeding H3966 mighty; H6105 and the land H776 was filled H4390 with them.
8
Now there arose H6965 up a new H2319 king H4428 over H5921 Egypt, H4714 which H834 knew H3045 not Joseph. H3130
9
And he said H559 to his people, H5971 Behold, H2009 the people H5971 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 are more H7227 and mightier H6099 than we:
10
Come H3051 on, let us deal wisely H2449 with them; lest H6435 they multiply, H7235 and it come H1961 to pass, that, when H3588 there falls H7122 out any war, H4421 they join H3254 also H1571 to our enemies, H8130 and fight H3898 against us, and so get H5927 them up out of the land. H776
11
Therefore they did set H7760 over H5921 them taskmasters H8269 H4522 to afflict H6031 them with their burdens. H5450 And they built H1129 for Pharaoh H6547 treasure H4543 cities, H5892 Pithom H6619 and Raamses. H7486
Proverbs 14:28
In the multitude H7230 of people H5971 is the king's H4428 honor: H1927 but in the want H657 of people H3816 is the destruction H4288 of the prince. H7333
