Exodus 5:19-23

19The IsraeliteH1121H3478 foremenH7860 realizedH7200 they were in troubleH7451 when they were toldH559, “You must notH3808 reduceH1639 your dailyH3117 quotaH1697 of bricksH3843.” 20When they leftH3318H854 PharaohH6547, they confrontedH6293 MosesH4872 and AaronH175, who stoodH5324 waiting to meet themH7122.

21“May the LORDH3068H5921 look upon youH7200 and judge youH8199,” the foremen saidH559H413, “forH834 you have made us a stenchH887 beforeH5869 PharaohH6547H5869 and his officialsH5650; you have placedH5414 in their handH3027 a swordH2719 to kill usH2026!”

22So MosesH4872 returnedH7725 toH413 the LORDH3068 and askedH559, “LordH136, whyH4100 have You brought troubleH7489 upon thisH2088 peopleH5971? Is thisH2088 whyH4100 You sent meH7971? 23Ever sinceH227 I wentH935 toH413 PharaohH6547 to speakH1696 in Your nameH8034, he has brought troubleH7489 on thisH2088 peopleH5971, and You have notH3808 deliveredH5337 Your peopleH5971 in any wayH5337.”
