Mazmur 105:24-25

105:24 The Lord ¹  made his people very fruitful,

and made them ²  more numerous than their ³  enemies.

105:25 He caused them ⁴  to hate his people,

and to mistreat ⁵  his servants.

Kisah Para Rasul 7:17-19

7:17 “But as the time drew near for God to fulfill the promise he had declared to Abraham, ⁶  the people increased greatly in number ⁷  in Egypt, 7:18 until another king who did not know about ⁸  Joseph ruled ⁹  over Egypt. ¹⁰  7:19 This was the one who exploited ¹¹  our people ¹²  and was cruel to our ancestors, ¹³  forcing them to abandon ¹⁴  their infants so they would die. ¹⁵ 

[105:24]  ¹ tn Heb “and he”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[105:24]  ² tn Heb “him,” referring to “his people.”

[105:24]  ³ tn Heb “his,” referring to “his people.”

[105:25]  ⁴ tn Heb “their heart.”

[105:25]  ⁵ tn Or “to deal deceptively.” The Hitpael of נָכַל (nakhal) occurs only here and in Gen 37:18, where it is used of Joseph’s brothers “plotting” to kill him.

[7:17]  ⁶ tn Grk “But as the time for the fulfillment of the promise drew near that God had declared to Abraham.” The order of the clauses has been rearranged to improve English style. See vv. 6-7 above.

[7:17]  ⁷ tn Grk “the people increased and multiplied.”

[7:18]  ⁸ tn Or simply “did not know.” However, in this context the point is that the new king knew nothing about Joseph, not whether he had known him personally (which is the way “did not know Joseph” could be understood).

[7:18]  ⁹ tn Grk “arose,” but in this context it clearly refers to a king assuming power.

[7:18]  ¹⁰ sn A quotation from Exod 1:8.

[7:19]  ¹¹ tn According to L&N 88.147 it is also possible to translate κατασοφισάμενος (katasofisameno") as “took advantage by clever words” or “persuaded by sweet talk.”

[7:19]  ¹² tn Or “race.”

[7:19]  ¹³ tn Or “forefathers”; Grk “fathers.”

[7:19]  ¹⁴ tn Or “expose” (BDAG 303 s.v. ἔκθετος).

[7:19]  ¹⁵ tn Grk “so that they could not be kept alive,” but in this context the phrase may be translated either “so that they would not continue to live,” or “so that they would die” (L&N 23.89).
