Exodus 1:10-14
10Come, let us 1deal wisely with them, or else they will multiply and 2in the event of war, they will also join themselves to those who hate us, and fight against us and 3depart from the land.” 11So they appointed 4taskmasters over them to afflict them with 56hard labor. And they built for Pharaoh 7storage cities, Pithom and 8Raamses. 12But the more they afflicted them, 9the more they multiplied and the more they 10spread out, so that they were in dread of the sons of Israel. 13The Egyptians compelled the sons of Israel 11to labor rigorously; 14and they made 12their lives bitter with hard labor in mortar and bricks and at all kinds of labor in the field, all their labors which they rigorously 13imposed on them.
