strkjv@Exodus: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
.
strkjv@Exodus: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
.
strkjv@Exodus: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
.
strkjv@Exodus: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
.
strkjv@Exodus:5:5
@ And
Pharaoh
said
, Behold, the
people
of the
land
now are
many
, and ye make them
rest
from their
burdens
.
strkjv@Exodus:5:6
@ And
Pharaoh
commanded
the same
day
the
taskmasters
of the
people
, and their
officers
,
saying
,
strkjv@Exodus:5:7
@ Ye shall no
more
give
the
people
straw
to
make
brick
, as
heretofore
: let them
go
and
gather
straw
for themselves.
strkjv@Exodus: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
.
strkjv@Exodus:5:9
@ Let there more
work
be
laid
upon the
men
, that they may
labour
therein; and let them not
regard
vain
words
.
strkjv@Exodus: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
.
strkjv@Exodus:5:11
@
Go
ye,
get
you
straw
where
ye can
find
it:
yet
not
ought
of your
work
shall be
diminished
.
strkjv@Exodus:5:12
@ So the
people
were scattered
abroad
throughout all the
land
of
Egypt
to
gather
stubble
instead of
straw
.
strkjv@Exodus:5:13
@ And the
taskmasters
hasted
them,
saying
,
Fulfil
your
works
, your
daily
tasks
, as when there
was
straw
.
strkjv@Exodus:5:14
@ And the
officers
of the
children
of
Israel
, which
Pharaohs
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
?
strkjv@Exodus:5:15
@ Then the
officers
of the
children
of
Israel
came
and
cried
unto
Pharaoh
,
saying
, Wherefore
dealest
thou thus with thy
servants
?
strkjv@Exodus: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
.
strkjv@Exodus:5:17
@ But he
said
, Ye are
idle
, ye are
idle
: therefore ye
say
, Let us
go
and do
sacrifice
to the
LORD
.
strkjv@Exodus:5:18
@
Go
therefore now, and
work
; for there shall no
straw
be
given
you, yet shall ye
deliver
the
tale
of
bricks
.
strkjv@Exodus: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
.
strkjv@Exodus:5:20
@ And they
met
Moses
and
Aaron
, who
stood
in the
way
, as they came
forth
from
Pharaoh
:
strkjv@Exodus: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.
strkjv@Exodus: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?
strkjv@Exodus: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
.
