Exodus 5:1-23

And afterward
<0310>
Moses
<04872>
and Aaron
<0175>
went in
<0935> (8804)_,
and told
<0559> (8799)
Pharaoh
<06547>_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Let my people
<05971>
go
<07971> (8761)_,
that they may hold a feast
<02287> (8799)
unto me in the wilderness
<04057>_.
And Pharaoh
<06547>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Who [is] the LORD
<03068>_,
that I should obey
<08085> (8799)
his voice
<06963>
to let Israel
<03478>
go
<07971> (8763)_?
I know
<03045> (8804)
not the LORD
<03068>_,
neither will I let Israel
<03478>
go
<07971> (8762)_.
And they said
<0559> (8799)_,
The God
<0430>
of the Hebrews
<05680>
hath met
<07122> (8738)
with us: let us go
<03212> (8799)_,
we pray thee, three
<07969>
days
<03117>_'
journey
<01870>
into the desert
<04057>_,
and sacrifice
<02076> (8799)
unto the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_;
lest he fall
<06293> (8799)
upon us with pestilence
<01698>_,
or with the sword
<02719>_.
And the king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Wherefore do ye, Moses
<04872>
and Aaron
<0175>_,
let
<06544> (8686)
the people
<05971>
from their works
<04639>_?
get
<03212> (8798)
you unto your burdens
<05450>_.
And Pharaoh
<06547>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Behold, the people
<05971>
of the land
<0776>
now [are] many
<07227>_,
and ye make them rest
<07673> (8689)
from their burdens
<05450>_.
And Pharaoh
<06547>
commanded
<06680> (8762)
the same day
<03117>
the taskmasters
<05065> (8802)
of the people
<05971>_,
and their officers
<07860> (8802)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
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>_.
And the officers
<07860> (8802)
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
did see
<07200> (8799)
[that] they [were] in evil
<07451>
[case], after it was said
<0559> (8800)_,
Ye shall not minish
<01639> (8799)
[ought] from your bricks
<03843>
of your daily
<03117> <03117>
task
<01697>_.
And they met
<06293> (8799)
Moses
<04872>
and Aaron
<0175>_,
who stood
<05324> (8737)
in the way
<07125> (8800)_,
as they came forth
<03318> (8800)
from Pharaoh
<06547>_:
And they said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, The LORD
<03068>
look
<07200> (8799)
upon you, and judge
<08199> (8799)_;
because ye have made our savour
<07381>
to be abhorred
<0887> (8689)
in the eyes
<05869>
of Pharaoh
<06547>_,
and in the eyes
<05869>
of his servants
<05650>_,
to put
<05414> (8800)
a sword
<02719>
in their hand
<03027>
to slay
<02026> (8800)
us. {to be...: Heb. to stink}
And Moses
<04872>
returned
<07725> (8799)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Lord
<0136>_,
wherefore hast thou [so] evil entreated
<07489> (8689)
this people
<05971>_?
why [is] it [that] thou hast sent
<07971> (8804)
me?
For since I came
<0935> (8804)
to Pharaoh
<06547>
to speak
<01696> (8763)
in thy name
<08034>_,
he hath done evil
<07489> (8689)
to this people
<05971>_;
neither hast thou delivered
<05337> (8689)
thy people
<05971>
at all
<05337> (8687)_.
{neither...: Heb. delivering thou hast not delivered}
