dourh@Exodus:5:6 @ Therefore he commanded the same day the overseers of the works, and the taskmasters of the people, saying:

dourh@Exodus:5:7 @ You shall give straw no more to the people to make brick, as before: but let them go and gather straw.

dourh@Exodus:5:8 @ And you shall lay upon them the task of bricks, which they did before, neither shall you diminish any thing thereof: for they are idle, and therefore they cry, saying: Let us go and sacrifice to our God.

dourh@Exodus:5:16 @ Straw is not given us, and bricks are required of us as before: behold we thy servants are beaten with whips, and thy people is unjustly dealt withal.

dourh@Exodus:5:17 @ And he said: You are idle, and therefore you say: Let us go and sacrifice to the Lord.

dourh@Exodus:5:18 @ Go therefore, and work: straw shall not be given you, and you shall deliver the accustomed number of bricks.

dourh@Exodus:6:1 @ And the Lord said to Moses: Now thou shalt see what I will do to Pharao: for by a mighty hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he cast them out of his land.

dourh@Exodus:6:3 @ That appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, by the name of God Almighty; and my name ADONAI I did not shew them.

dourh@Exodus:6:4 @ And I made a covenant with them, to give them the land of Chanaan, the land of their pilgrimage wherein they were strangers.

dourh@Exodus:6:5 @ I have heard the groaning of the children of Israel, wherewith the Egyptians have oppressed them: and I have remembered my covenant.

dourh@Exodus:6:6 @ Therefore say to the children of Israel: I am the Lord who will bring you out from the work prison of the Egyptians, and will deliver you from bondage: and redeem you with a high arm, and great judgments.

dourh@Exodus:6:7 @ And I will take you to myself for my people, I will be your God: and you shall know that I am the Lord your God who brought you out from the work prison of the Egyptians.

dourh@Exodus:6:11 @ Go in, and speak to Pharao king of Egypt, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.

dourh@Exodus:6:12 @ Moses answered before the Lord Behold the children of Israel do no hearken to me; and how will Pharao hear me, especially as I am of uncircumcised lips?
