Exodus 1:6-8

Living Bible

⁶ In due season Joseph and each of his brothers died, ending that generation. ⁷ Meanwhile, their descendants were very fertile, increasing rapidly in numbers; there was a veritable population explosion so that they soon became a large nation, and they filled the land of Goshen.

⁸ Then, eventually, a new king came^[a] to the throne of Egypt who felt no obligation to the descendants of Joseph.
