1 And afterward 310 Moses 4872 and Aaron 175 went in 935, and told 559 Pharaoh 6547, Thus saith 559 the LORD 3068 God 430 of Israel 3478, Let my people 5971 go 7971, that they may hold a feast 2287 unto me in the wilderness 4057.
2 And Pharaoh 6547 said 559, Who is the LORD 3068, that I should obey 8085 his voice 6963 to let Israel 3478 go 7971? I know 3045 not the LORD 3068, neither will I let Israel 3478 go 7971.
3 And they said 559, The God 430 of the Hebrews 5680 hath met 7122 with us: let us go 3212, we pray thee, three 7969 days 3117' journey 1870 into the desert 4057, and sacrifice 2076 unto the LORD 3068 our God 430; lest he fall 6293 upon us with pestilence 1698, or with the sword 2719.
4 And the king 4428 of Egypt 4714 said 559 unto them, Wherefore do ye, Moses 4872 and Aaron 175, let 6544 the people 5971 from their works 4639? get 3212 you unto your burdens 5450.
5 And Pharaoh 6547 said 559, Behold, the people 5971 of the land 776 now are many 7227, and ye make them rest 7673 from their burdens 5450.
6 And Pharaoh 6547 commanded 6680 the same day 3117 the taskmasters 5065 of the people 5971, and their officers 7860, saying 559,
7 Ye shall no more 3254 give 5414 the people 5971 straw 8401 to make 3835 brick 3843, as heretofore 8032 8543: let them go 3212 and gather 7197 straw 8401 for themselves.
8 And the tale 4971 of the bricks 3843, which they did make 6213 heretofore 8032 8543, ye shall lay 7760 upon them; ye shall not diminish 1639 ought thereof: for they be idle 7503; therefore they cry 6817, saying 559, Let us go 3212 and sacrifice 2076 to our God 430.
9 Let there more work 5656 be laid 3513 upon the men 582, that they may labour 6213 therein; and let them not regard 8159 vain 8267 words 1697.
10 And the taskmasters 5065 of the people 5971 went out 3318, and their officers 7860, and they spake 559 to the people 5971, saying 559, Thus saith 559 Pharaoh 6547, I will not give 5414 you straw 8401.
11 Go 3212 ye, get 3947 you straw 8401 where 834 ye can find 4672 it: yet 3588 not ought 1697 of your work 5656 shall be diminished 1639.
12 So the people 5971 were scattered abroad 6327 throughout all the land 776 of Egypt 4714 to gather 7197 stubble 7179 instead of straw 8401.
13 And the taskmasters 5065 hasted 213 them, saying 559, Fulfil 3615 your works 4639, your daily 3117 tasks 1697, as when there was 1961 straw 8401.
14 And the officers 7860 of the children 1121 of Israel 3478, which Pharaoh's 6547 taskmasters 5065 had set 7760 over them, were beaten 5221, and demanded 559, Wherefore have ye not fulfilled 3615 your task 2706 in making brick 3835 both yesterday 8543 and to day 3117, as heretofore 8032 8543?
15 Then the officers 7860 of the children 1121 of Israel 3478 came 935 and cried 6817 unto Pharaoh 6547, saying 559, Wherefore dealest 6213 thou thus with thy servants 5650?
16 There is no straw 8401 given 5414 unto thy servants 5650, and they say 559 to us, Make 6213 brick 3843: and, behold, thy servants 5650 are beaten 5221; but the fault 2398 is in thine own people 5971.
17 But he said 559, Ye are idle 7503, ye are idle 7503: therefore ye say 559, Let us go 3212 and do sacrifice 2076 to the LORD 3068.
18 Go 3212 therefore now, and work 5647; for there shall no straw 8401 be given 5414 you, yet shall ye deliver 5414 the tale 8506 of bricks 3843.
19 And the officers 7860 of the children 1121 of Israel 3478 did see 7200 that they were in evil 7451 case, after it was said 559, Ye shall not minish 1639 ought from your bricks 3843 of your daily 3117 task 1697.
20 And they met 6293 Moses 4872 and Aaron 175, who stood 5324 in the way 7125, as they came forth 3318 from Pharaoh 6547:
21 And they said 559 unto them, The LORD 3068 look 7200 upon you, and judge 8199; because ye have made our savour 7381 to be abhorred 887 in the eyes 5869 of Pharaoh 6547, and in the eyes 5869 of his servants 5650, to put 5414 a sword 2719 in their hand 3027 to slay 2026 us.
22 And Moses 4872 returned 7725 unto the LORD 3068, and said 559, Lord 136, wherefore hast thou so evil entreated 7489 this people 5971? why is it that thou hast sent 7971 me?
23 For since I came 935 to Pharaoh 6547 to speak 1696 in thy name 8034, he hath done evil 7489 to this people 5971; neither hast thou delivered 5337 thy people 5971 at all 5337.
