Exodus 5:4-5

5:4

Moses <04872> [wherefore.]

refrain <06544> [let.]

{Taphreeoo,} from {pard,} to loose, disengage; and which we render let, from the Anglo-Saxon {lettan,} to hinder. Ye hinder the people from their work: "Get you unto your burdens." "Let religion alone and mind your work." The language not only of tyranny, but of thoughtless irreligion.

labor <05450> [burdens.]

5:5
