Exodus

Chapter 5

1 And afterward310 Moses4872 and Aaron175 went in,935 and told559 413 Pharaoh,6547 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD3068 God430 of Israel,3478 Let853 my people5971 go,7971 that they may hold a feast2287 unto me in the wilderness.4057

2 And Pharaoh6547 said,559 Who4310 is the LORD,3068 that834 I should obey8085 his voice6963 to let853 Israel3478 go?7971 I know3045 not3808 853 the LORD,3068 neither1571 3808 will I let853 Israel3478 go.7971

3 And they said,559 The God430 of the Hebrews5680 hath met7122 with5921 us: let us go,1980 we pray thee,4994 three7969 days'3117 journey1870 into the desert,4057 and sacrifice2076 unto the LORD3068 our God;430 lest6435 he fall upon6293 us with pestilence,1698 or176 with the sword.2719

4 And the king4428 of Egypt4714 said559 unto413 them, Wherefore4100 do ye, Moses4872 and Aaron,175 let6544 853 the people5971 from their works?4480 4639 get1980 you unto your burdens.5450

5 And Pharaoh6547 said,559 Behold,2005 the people5971 of the land776 now6258 are many,7227 and ye make them rest7673 853 from their burdens.4480 5450

6 And Pharaoh6547 commanded6680 the same1931 day3117 853 the taskmasters5065 of the people,5971 and their officers,7860 saying,559

7 Ye shall no3808 more3254 give5414 the people5971 straw8401 to make3835 brick,3843 as heretofore:8543 8032 let them1992 go1980 and gather7197 straw8401 for themselves.

8 And the tale4971 of the bricks,3843 which834 they1992 did make6213 heretofore,8543 8032 ye shall lay7760 upon5921 them; ye shall not3808 diminish1639 aught thereof:4480 for3588 they1992 be idle;7503 therefore5921 3651 they1992 cry,6817 saying,559 Let us go1980 and sacrifice2076 to our God.430

9 Let there more work be laid3513 5656 upon5921 the men,376 that they may labor6213 therein; and let them not408 regard8159 vain8267 words.1697

10 And the taskmasters5065 of the people5971 went out,3318 and their officers,7860 and they spoke559 to413 the people,5971 saying,559 Thus3541 saith559 Pharaoh,6547 I will not369 give5414 you straw.8401

11 Go1980 ye,859 get3947 you straw8401 where4480 834 ye can find4672 it: yet3588 not369 aught1697 of your work4480 5656 shall be diminished.1639

12 So the people5971 were scattered abroad6327 throughout all3605 the land776 of Egypt4714 to gather7197 stubble7179 instead of straw.8401

13 And the taskmasters5065 hasted213 them, saying,559 Fulfill3615 your works,4639 your daily3117 3117 tasks,1697 as when834 there was1961 straw.8401

14 And the officers7860 of the children1121 of Israel,3478 which834 Pharaoh's6547 taskmasters5065 had set7760 over5921 them, were beaten,5221 and demanded,559 Wherefore4069 have ye not3808 fulfilled3615 your task2706 in making brick3835 both1571 yesterday8543 and1571 today,3117 as heretofore?8543 8032

15 Then the officers7860 of the children1121 of Israel3478 came935 and cried6817 unto413 Pharaoh,6547 saying,559 Wherefore4100 dealest6213 thou thus3541 with thy servants?5650

16 There is no369 straw8401 given5414 unto thy servants,5650 and they say559 to us, Make6213 brick:3843 and, behold,2009 thy servants5650 are beaten;5221 but the fault2398 is in thine own people.5971

17 But he said,559 Ye859 are idle,7503 ye are idle:7503 therefore5921 3651 ye859 say,559 Let us go1980 and do sacrifice2076 to the LORD.3068

18 Go1980 therefore now,6258 and work;5647 for there shall no3808 straw8401 be given5414 you, yet shall ye deliver5414 the tale8506 of bricks.3843

19 And the officers7860 of the children1121 of Israel3478 did see7200 that they were in evil7451 case, after it was said,559 Ye shall not3808 minish1639 aught from your bricks4480 3843 of your daily3117 3117 task.1697

20 And they met6293 853 Moses4872 and Aaron,175 who stood5324 in the way,7125 as they came forth3318 from4480 854 Pharaoh: 6547

21 And they said559 unto413 them, The LORD3068 look7200 upon5921 you, and judge;8199 because834 ye have made853 our savor7381 to be abhorred887 in the eyes5869 of Pharaoh,6547 and in the eyes5869 of his servants,5650 to put5414 a sword2719 in their hand3027 to slay2026 us.

22 And Moses4872 returned7725 unto413 the LORD,3068 and said,559 Lord,136 wherefore4100 hast thou so evil entreated7489 this2088 people?5971 why4100 is it2088 that thou hast sent7971 me?

23 For since4480 227 I came935 to413 Pharaoh6547 to speak1696 in thy name,8034 he hath done evil7489 to this2088 people;5971 neither3808 hast thou delivered5337 853 thy people5971 at all.5337

Exodus

Chapter 5

1 AND afterward Moses and Aaron went into the palace and told Pharaoh, Thus says the LORD God of Israel, Let my people go that they may hold a feast to me in the wilderness.

2 And Pharaoh said, Who is the LORD, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go? I do not know the LORD, neither will I let Israel go.

3 And they said, The LORD God of the Hebrews has appeared to us; now let us go three days' journey into the wilderness that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God; lest he fall upon us with the sword or with pestilence.

4 And the king of Egypt said to them, Wherefore do you, Moses and Aaron, cause the people to stop from their work? Go back to your tasks.

5 And Pharaoh said to them, Behold, the people of the land now are many, and you cause them to stop from their work.

6 And Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people and their scribes, saying,

7 You shall no more give the people straw to make bricks, as heretofore; let them go and gather straw for themselves.

8 But the number of bricks which they did make heretofore, you shall lay upon them; you shall not reduce the number thereof; for they are idle; that is why they cry, saying, Let us go and sacrifice to our God.

9 Let more work be assigned to the men, that they may be occupied, so that they may not think to engage in vain conversations.

10 And the taskmasters of the people and their scribes went out and said to the people, Thus says Pharaoh, I will not give you straw.

11 Go, get straw for yourselves wherever you can find it; but your work shall not be reduced.

12 So the people were scattered throughout all the land of Egypt to gather the stubble.

13 And the taskmasters pressed them, saying, Complete your work as you have always done, as when straw was given to you.

14 And the scribes of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh's taskmasters had appointed over them, were beaten, and demanded, Why have you not completed your quota of bricks both yesterday and today, as heretofore?

15 Then the scribes of the children of Israel came and complained to Pharaoh, saying, Why are your servants treated in this manner?

16 There is no straw given to your servants, and yet they say to us, Make bricks: and, behold, your servants are beaten; and you sin against your people.

17 But Pharaoh said to them, You are surely idle; therefore you say, Let us go and sacrifice to the LORD.

18 Go therefore now and work; and straw shall not be given you, yet you shall deliver the number of bricks.

19 And the scribes of the children of Israel saw that they were in a bad situation, for it was said to them, You must not reduce the number of your bricks, of your daily task.

20 And they met Moses and Aaron standing opposite them, as they came out from the presence of Pharaoh;

21 And they said to them, May the LORD look upon you and judge; because you have made us to be in disfavor in the eyes of Pharaoh and in the eyes of his servants, to put a sword in their hands to kill us.

22 And Moses returned to the LORD and said, O my LORD, Why hast thou caused this people to be ill-treated? And why didst thou send me here?

23 For since the hour I came to Pharaoh to speak in thy name, he has ill-treated this people; and thou hast not delivered thy people at all.

2 And Pharaoh6547 said,559 Who4310 is the LORD,3068 that834 I should obey8085 his voice6963 to let853 Israel3478 go?7971 I know3045 not3808 853 the LORD,3068 neither1571 3808 will I let853 Israel3478 go.7971

2 And Pharaoh said, Who is the LORD, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go? I do not know the LORD, neither will I let Israel go.

3 And they said,559 The God430 of the Hebrews5680 hath met7122 with5921 us: let us go,1980 we pray thee,4994 three7969 days'3117 journey1870 into the desert,4057 and sacrifice2076 unto the LORD3068 our God;430 lest6435 he fall upon6293 us with pestilence,1698 or176 with the sword.2719

4 And the king4428 of Egypt4714 said559 unto413 them, Wherefore4100 do ye, Moses4872 and Aaron,175 let6544 853 the people5971 from their works?4480 4639 get1980 you unto your burdens.5450

4 And the king of Egypt said to them, Wherefore do you, Moses and Aaron, cause the people to stop from their work? Go back to your tasks.

5 And Pharaoh6547 said,559 Behold,2005 the people5971 of the land776 now6258 are many,7227 and ye make them rest7673 853 from their burdens.4480 5450

5 And Pharaoh said to them, Behold, the people of the land now are many, and you cause them to stop from their work.

6 And Pharaoh6547 commanded6680 the same1931 day3117 853 the taskmasters5065 of the people,5971 and their officers,7860 saying,559

6 And Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people and their scribes, saying,

7 Ye shall no3808 more3254 give5414 the people5971 straw8401 to make3835 brick,3843 as heretofore:8543 8032 let them1992 go1980 and gather7197 straw8401 for themselves.

7 You shall no more give the people straw to make bricks, as heretofore; let them go and gather straw for themselves.

8 And the tale4971 of the bricks,3843 which834 they1992 did make6213 heretofore,8543 8032 ye shall lay7760 upon5921 them; ye shall not3808 diminish1639 aught thereof:4480 for3588 they1992 be idle;7503 therefore5921 3651 they1992 cry,6817 saying,559 Let us go1980 and sacrifice2076 to our God.430

8 But the number of bricks which they did make heretofore, you shall lay upon them; you shall not reduce the number thereof; for they are idle; that is why they cry, saying, Let us go and sacrifice to our God.

9 Let there more work be laid3513 5656 upon5921 the men,376 that they may labor6213 therein; and let them not408 regard8159 vain8267 words.1697

9 Let more work be assigned to the men, that they may be occupied, so that they may not think to engage in vain conversations.

10 And the taskmasters5065 of the people5971 went out,3318 and their officers,7860 and they spoke559 to413 the people,5971 saying,559 Thus3541 saith559 Pharaoh,6547 I will not369 give5414 you straw.8401

10 And the taskmasters of the people and their scribes went out and said to the people, Thus says Pharaoh, I will not give you straw.

11 Go1980 ye,859 get3947 you straw8401 where4480 834 ye can find4672 it: yet3588 not369 aught1697 of your work4480 5656 shall be diminished.1639

11 Go, get straw for yourselves wherever you can find it; but your work shall not be reduced.

12 So the people5971 were scattered abroad6327 throughout all3605 the land776 of Egypt4714 to gather7197 stubble7179 instead of straw.8401

12 So the people were scattered throughout all the land of Egypt to gather the stubble.

13 And the taskmasters5065 hasted213 them, saying,559 Fulfill3615 your works,4639 your daily3117 3117 tasks,1697 as when834 there was1961 straw.8401

13 And the taskmasters pressed them, saying, Complete your work as you have always done, as when straw was given to you.

14 And the officers7860 of the children1121 of Israel,3478 which834 Pharaoh's6547 taskmasters5065 had set7760 over5921 them, were beaten,5221 and demanded,559 Wherefore4069 have ye not3808 fulfilled3615 your task2706 in making brick3835 both1571 yesterday8543 and1571 today,3117 as heretofore?8543 8032

14 And the scribes of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh's taskmasters had appointed over them, were beaten, and demanded, Why have you not completed your quota of bricks both yesterday and today, as heretofore?

15 Then the officers7860 of the children1121 of Israel3478 came935 and cried6817 unto413 Pharaoh,6547 saying,559 Wherefore4100 dealest6213 thou thus3541 with thy servants?5650

15 Then the scribes of the children of Israel came and complained to Pharaoh, saying, Why are your servants treated in this manner?

16 There is no369 straw8401 given5414 unto thy servants,5650 and they say559 to us, Make6213 brick:3843 and, behold,2009 thy servants5650 are beaten;5221 but the fault2398 is in thine own people.5971

16 There is no straw given to your servants, and yet they say to us, Make bricks: and, behold, your servants are beaten; and you sin against your people.

17 But he said,559 Ye859 are idle,7503 ye are idle:7503 therefore5921 3651 ye859 say,559 Let us go1980 and do sacrifice2076 to the LORD.3068

17 But Pharaoh said to them, You are surely idle; therefore you say, Let us go and sacrifice to the LORD.

18 Go1980 therefore now,6258 and work;5647 for there shall no3808 straw8401 be given5414 you, yet shall ye deliver5414 the tale8506 of bricks.3843

18 Go therefore now and work; and straw shall not be given you, yet you shall deliver the number of bricks.

19 And the officers7860 of the children1121 of Israel3478 did see7200 that they were in evil7451 case, after it was said,559 Ye shall not3808 minish1639 aught from your bricks4480 3843 of your daily3117 3117 task.1697

19 And the scribes of the children of Israel saw that they were in a bad situation, for it was said to them, You must not reduce the number of your bricks, of your daily task.

20 And they met6293 853 Moses4872 and Aaron,175 who stood5324 in the way,7125 as they came forth3318 from4480 854 Pharaoh: 6547

20 And they met Moses and Aaron standing opposite them, as they came out from the presence of Pharaoh;

21 And they said559 unto413 them, The LORD3068 look7200 upon5921 you, and judge;8199 because834 ye have made853 our savor7381 to be abhorred887 in the eyes5869 of Pharaoh,6547 and in the eyes5869 of his servants,5650 to put5414 a sword2719 in their hand3027 to slay2026 us.

21 And they said to them, May the LORD look upon you and judge; because you have made us to be in disfavor in the eyes of Pharaoh and in the eyes of his servants, to put a sword in their hands to kill us.

22 And Moses4872 returned7725 unto413 the LORD,3068 and said,559 Lord,136 wherefore4100 hast thou so evil entreated7489 this2088 people?5971 why4100 is it2088 that thou hast sent7971 me?

22 And Moses returned to the LORD and said, O my LORD, Why hast thou caused this people to be ill-treated? And why didst thou send me here?

23 For since4480 227 I came935 to413 Pharaoh6547 to speak1696 in thy name,8034 he hath done evil7489 to this2088 people;5971 neither3808 hast thou delivered5337 853 thy people5971 at all.5337

23 For since the hour I came to Pharaoh to speak in thy name, he has ill-treated this people; and thou hast not delivered thy people at all.
