14 Joseph sent for his father and his relatives. In all, there were seventy-five of them.
15 His father went to Egypt and died there, just as our ancestors did.
16 Later their bodies were taken back to Shechem and placed in the tomb that Abraham had bought from the sons of Hamor.
17 Finally, the time came for God to do what he had promised Abraham. By then the number of our people in Egypt had greatly increased.
18 Another king was ruling Egypt, and he didn't know anything about Joseph.
19 He tricked our ancestors and was cruel to them. He even made them leave their babies outside, so they would die.
20 During this time Moses was born. He was a very beautiful child, and for three months his parents took care of him in their home.
