Exodus 5:3-9

3And they saidH559, The GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680 hath metH7122 with usH4994: letH4994 usH4994 goH4994, weH3117 prayH4994 thee, threeH7969 days’H3117 journeyH1870 intoH5921 the wildernessH4057, and sacrificeH2076 unto the LORDH3068 our GodH430; lestH6435 he fallH6293 uponH5921 usH4994 with pestilenceH1698, or with the swordH2719.

4And the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 saidH559 unto them, Wherefore doH4100 ye, MosesH4872 and AaronH175, loose the peopleH5971 from their worksH4639? get youH853 unto your burdensH5450.

5And PharaohH6547 saidH559, BeholdH2005, the peopleH5971 of the landH776 are nowH6258 manyH7227, and ye make them rest from their burdensH5450.

6And the sameH1931 dayH3117 PharaohH6547 commandedH6680 the taskmastersH5065 of the peopleH5971, and their officersH7860, sayingH559,

7Ye shall noH3808 moreH3254 giveH5414 the peopleH5971 strawH8401 to makeH5414 brickH3843, as heretofore: letH5414 them go and gather strawH8401 for themselvesH1992.

8And the tale of the bricksH3843, whichH834 they didH6213 makeH7760 heretofore, ye shall layH7760 uponH5921 them; ye shall notH3808 diminish aught thereof: for they be idle; therefore they cryH6817, sayingH559, LetH7503 usH5921 goH7503 and sacrificeH2076 to our GodH430.

9LetH408 heavierH3513 workH5656 be laidH3513 uponH5921 the menH376, that they may labour therein; and letH408 them notH408 regardH8159 lyingH8267 wordsH1697.
