Exodus 1:6

Joseph

4 Dan and Naphtali; Gad and Asher.

5 The descendants of Jacob numbered seventy in all, including Joseph, who was already in Egypt.

Now Joseph and all his brothers and all that generation died,

7 but the Israelites were fruitful and increased rapidly; they multiplied and became exceedingly numerous, so that the land was filled with them.

8 Then a new king, who did not know Joseph, came to power in Egypt.
