BrTrcome then, let us deal craftily with them, lest at any time they be increased, and whensoever war shall happen to us, these also shall be added to our enemies, and having prevailed against us in war, they will depart out of the land.

NETS Come then, let us deal shrewdly with them, lest it be multiplied, and, whenever war happens to us, these also shall be added to the opponents, and after going to war against us, they shall depart from the land.”

ULTCome, let us act wisely toward him, lest he multiplies, and it happens that a battle occurs, and he even adds himself onto the ones hating us, and he fights with us, and he leaves from the land.”

USTWe must find a way to control them! If we do not do that, there will be more of them. Then, if enemies attack us, the Israelites will join with our enemies and fight against us, and they will escape from our land.”

BSBCome, let us deal shrewdly with them, or they will increase even more; and if a war breaks out, they may join our enemies, fight against us, and leave the country.[fn]

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

1:10 The people whom Pharaoh referred to as our enemies would almost certainly have been the remnants of the Hyksos (see study note on 1:8-10).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

נִֽתְחַכְּמָ֖ה & שֹׂ֣נְאֵ֔י⁠נוּ & בָּ֖⁠נוּ

deal_shrewdly & enemies,our & in/on/at/with,us

The word us is inclusive and refers to the king and his people, the Egyptians. Your language may require you to mark these forms.

Note 2 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

ל֑⁠וֹ & יִרְבֶּ֗ה & וְ⁠נוֹסַ֤ף & הוּא֙ & וְ⁠נִלְחַם & וְ⁠עָלָ֥ה

to=him/it & multiply & and,join & he/it & and,fight & and=he/it_would_go_up

Here, him, he, and himself refer to the Israelite people. The pronouns agree grammatically with the singular “people” in the original. This occurs in many places in Exodus. If this is confusing in your language, you can use the plural, as in the UST.

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-condition-hypothetical

פֶּן־יִרְבֶּ֗ה וְ⁠הָיָ֞ה כִּֽי־תִקְרֶ֤אנָה מִלְחָמָה֙

lest multiply and=it_was that/for/because/then/when breaks_out war

The king suggests a combination of two hypothetical events: 1. There are even more Israelites, 2. There is a battle. These are followed by a series of undesirable consequences: 3. The Israelites join an enemy, 4. The Israelites attack the Egyptians, 5. The Israelites leave Egypt. While the series of consequences is also technically hypothetical, the king’s language indicates that if 1–2 happen, then 3–5 are certain. Use language that makes it clear that the first two events are hypothetical and that the next three are consequences that could be expected if the first two events happen.

וְ⁠עָלָ֥ה מִן־הָ⁠אָֽרֶץ

and=he/it_would_go_up from/more_than the=earth/land
