8But he ignoredH5800 the adviceH6098 of the eldersH2205 whichH834 they had givenH3289 him, and consultedH3289 with the youngH3206 menH3206 whoH834 had grownH1431 upH1431 with him 1and servedH5975H6440 him. 9He saidH559 to them, “WhatH4100 adviceH3289 do you giveH3289, so that we may answerH7725H1697 thisH2088 peopleH5971 whoH834 have spokenH1696 to me, sayingH559, ‘LightenH7043 the yokeH5923 whichH834 your fatherH1 putH5414 on us’?” 10And the youngH3206 menH3206 whoH834 had grownH1431 upH1431 with him spokeH1696 to him, sayingH559, “ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 you should sayH559 to thisH2088 peopleH5971 whoH834 spokeH1696 to you, sayingH559: ‘Your fatherH1 madeH3513 our yokeH5923 heavyH3513, now you makeH7043 it lighterH7043 for us!’ You should speakH1696 thisH3541 wayH3541 to them: ‘My littleH6995 fingerH6995 is thickerH5666 thanH4480 my father’sH1 waistH4975! 11NowH6258 then, my fatherH1 loadedH6006 you with a heavyH3515 yokeH5923; yet I will addH3254 to your yokeH5923. My fatherH1 disciplinedH3256 you with whipsH7752, but I will disciplineH3256 you with 2scorpionsH6137!’”
