Exodus 5:6-19

5:6

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)_,

5:7

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.

5:8

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>_.

5:9

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}

5:10

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>_.

5:11

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)_.

5:12

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>_.

5:13

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}

5:14

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>_?

5:15

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>_?

5:16

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>_.

5:17

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>_.

5:18

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>_.

5:19

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>_.
