Exodus 5:7-18

Ye shall no more
<03254> (8686)
give
<05414> (8800)
the people
<05971>
straw
<08401>
to make
<03835> (8800)
brick
<03843>_,
as heretofore
<08032> <08543>_:
let them go
<03212> (8799)
and gather
<07197> (8782)
straw
<08401>
for themselves.
And the tale
<04971>
of the bricks
<03843>_,
which they did make
<06213> (8802)
heretofore
<08032> <08543>_,
ye shall lay
<07760> (8799)
upon them; ye shall not diminish
<01639> (8799)
[ought] thereof: for they [be] idle
<07503> (8737)_;
therefore they cry
<06817> (8802)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Let us go
<03212> (8799)
[and] sacrifice
<02076> (8799)
to our God
<0430>_.
Let there more work
<05656>
be laid
<03513> (8799)
upon the men
<0582>_,
that they may labour
<06213> (8799)
therein; and let them not regard
<08159> (8799)
vain
<08267>
words
<01697>_.
{Let there...: Heb. Let the work be heavy upon the men}
And the taskmasters
<05065> (8802)
of the people
<05971>
went out
<03318> (8799)_,
and their officers
<07860> (8802)_,
and they spake
<0559> (8799)
to the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
Pharaoh
<06547>_,
I will not give
<05414> (8802)
you straw
<08401>_.
Go
<03212> (8798)
ye, get
<03947> (8798)
you straw
<08401>
where
<0834>
ye can find
<04672> (8799)
it: yet
<03588>
not ought
<01697>
of your work
<05656>
shall be diminished
<01639> (8737)_.
So the people
<05971>
were scattered abroad
<06327> (8686)
throughout all the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>
to gather
<07197> (8780)
stubble
<07179>
instead of straw
<08401>_.
And the taskmasters
<05065> (8802)
hasted
<0213> (8801)
[them], saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Fulfil
<03615> (8761)
your works
<04639>_,
[your] daily
<03117>
tasks
<01697>_,
as when there was
<01961> (8800)
straw
<08401>_.
{your daily...: Heb. a matter of a day in his day}
And the officers
<07860> (8802)
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
which Pharaoh's
<06547>
taskmasters
<05065> (8802)
had set
<07760> (8804)
over them, were beaten
<05221> (8714)_,
[and] demanded
<0559> (8800)_,
Wherefore have ye not fulfilled
<03615> (8765)
your task
<02706>
in making brick
<03835> (8800)
both yesterday
<08543>
and to day
<03117>_,
as heretofore
<08032> <08543>_?
Then the officers
<07860> (8802)
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
came
<0935> (8799)
and cried
<06817> (8799)
unto Pharaoh
<06547>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Wherefore dealest
<06213> (8799)
thou thus with thy servants
<05650>_?
There is no straw
<08401>
given
<05414> (8737)
unto thy servants
<05650>_,
and they say
<0559> (8802)
to us, Make
<06213> (8798)
brick
<03843>_:
and, behold, thy servants
<05650>
[are] beaten
<05221> (8716)_;
but the fault
<02398> (8804)
[is] in thine own people
<05971>_.
But he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Ye [are] idle
<07503> (8737)_,
[ye are] idle
<07503> (8737)_:
therefore ye say
<0559> (8802)_,
Let us go
<03212> (8799)
[and] do sacrifice
<02076> (8799)
to the LORD
<03068>_.
Go
<03212> (8798)
therefore now, [and] work
<05647> (8798)_;
for there shall no straw
<08401>
be given
<05414> (8735)
you, yet shall ye deliver
<05414> (8799)
the tale
<08506>
of bricks
<03843>_.
