ગુજરાતીનિર્ગમન ૧:૧૦
માટે આપણે તેઓ સાથે ચાલાકીથી વર્તીએ, નહિ તો તેઓ વધી જશે અને સંજોગોવશાત આપણને કોઈની સાથે લડાઈ થાય તો સંભવ છે કે તેઓ આપણા દુશ્મનો સાથે ભળી જાય, આપણી સામે લડે અને દેશમાંથી જતા રહે.”
हिन्दीनिर्गमन १:१०
इसलिए आओ, हम उनके साथ बुद्धिमानी से बर्ताव करें, कहीं ऐसा न हो कि जब वे बहुत बढ़ जाएँ, और यदि युद्ध का समय आ पड़े, तो हमारे बैरियों से मिलकर हम से लड़ें और इस देश से निकल जाएँ।”

In context

8Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who didn’t know Joseph.

9He said to his people, “Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we.

10Come, let’s deal wisely with them, lest they multiply, and it happen that when any war breaks out, they also join themselves to our enemies and fight against us, and escape out of the land.”

11Therefore they set taskmasters over them to afflict them with their burdens. They built storage cities for Pharaoh: Pithom and Raamses.

12But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and the more they spread out. They started to dread the children of Israel.
