\p
\v 8  \w Then|strong="H6965"\w* \w a new|strong="H2319"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w*, \w who|strong="H0834"\w* \w did not|strong="H3808"\w* \w know|strong="H3045"\w* \w about|strong="H3130"\w* \w Joseph|strong="H3130"\w*, \w came to power|strong="H5921"\w* \w over|strong="H5921"\w* \w Egypt|strong="H4714"\w*.

\p
\v 18  \w Then the king|strong="H4428"\w* \w of Egypt|strong="H4714"\w* \w summoned|strong="H7121"\w* \w the midwives|strong="H3205"\w* \w and said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to them, “Why|strong="H4069"\w* \w have you done|strong="H6213"\w* \w this|strong="H2088"\w* \w and let the boys|strong="H3206"\w* \w live|strong="H2421"\w*?”
