Exodus 5:11

Context
5:11 You 1  go get straw for yourselves wherever you can 2  find it, because there will be no reduction at all in your workload.’”

1 tn The independent personal pronoun emphasizes that the people were to get their own straw, and it heightens the contrast with the king. “You – go get.”

2 tn The tense in this section could be translated as having the nuance of possibility: “wherever you may find it,” or the nuance of potential imperfect: “wherever you are able to find any.”
