(Exo 5:1) And afterward Moses and Aaron went in, and told Pharaoh, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Let my people go, that they may hold a feast unto me in the wilderness.
(Exo 5:2) And Pharaoh said, Who {is} the Lord, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go? I know not the Lord, neither will I let Israel go.
(Exo 5:3) And they said, The God of the Hebrews hath met with us: let us go, we pray thee, three days' journey into the desert, and sacrifice unto the Lord our God; lest he fall upon us with pestilence, or with the sword.
(Exo 5:4) And the king of Egypt said unto them, Wherefore do ye, Moses and Aaron, let the people from their works? get you unto your burdens.
(Exo 5:5) And Pharaoh said, Behold, the people of the land now {are} many, and ye make them rest from their burdens.
(Exo 5:6) And Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying,
(Exo 5:7) Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them go and gather straw for themselves.
(Exo 5:8) And the tale of the bricks, which they did make heretofore, ye shall lay upon them; ye shall not diminish {ought} thereof: for they {be} idle; therefore they cry, saying, Let us go {and} sacrifice to our God.
(Exo 5:9) Let there more work be laid upon the men, that they may labour therein; and let them not regard vain words.
(Exo 5:10) And the taskmasters of the people went out, and their officers, and they spake to the people, saying, Thus saith Pharaoh, I will not give you straw.
(Exo 5:11) Go ye, get you straw where ye can find it: yet not ought of your work shall be diminished.
(Exo 5:12) So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Egypt to gather stubble instead of straw.
(Exo 5:13) And the taskmasters hasted {them}, saying, Fulfil your works, {your} daily tasks, as when there was straw.
(Exo 5:14) And the officers of the children of Israel, which Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, {and} demanded, Wherefore have ye not fulfilled your task in making brick both yesterday and to day, as heretofore?
(Exo 5:15) Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried unto Pharaoh, saying, Wherefore dealest thou thus with thy servants?
(Exo 5:16) There is no straw given unto thy servants, and they say to us, Make brick: and, behold, thy servants {are} beaten; but the fault {is} in thine own people.
(Exo 5:17) But he said, Ye {are} idle, {ye are} idle: therefore ye say, Let us go {and} do sacrifice to the Lord.
(Exo 5:18) Go therefore now, {and} work; for there shall no straw be given you, yet shall ye deliver the tale of bricks.
(Exo 5:19) And the officers of the children of Israel did see {that} they {were} in evil {case}, after it was said, Ye shall not minish {ought} from your bricks of your daily task.
(Exo 5:20) And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood in the way, as they came forth from Pharaoh:
(Exo 5:21) And they said unto them, The Lord look upon you, and judge; because ye have made our savour to be abhorred in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to slay us.
(Exo 5:22) And Moses returned unto the Lord, and said, Lord, wherefore hast thou {so} evil entreated this people? why {is} it {that} thou hast sent me?
(Exo 5:23) For since I came to Pharaoh to speak in thy name, he hath done evil to this people; neither hast thou delivered thy people at all.
