Exodus 5:7 ASV

⁵  And Pharaoh said, Behold, the people of the land are now many, and ye make them rest from their burdens.

⁶  And the same day Pharaoh commanded the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying,

⁷  Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them go and gather straw for themselves.

⁸  And the number of the bricks, which they did make heretofore, ye shall lay upon them; ye shall not diminish aught thereof: for they are idle; therefore they cry, saying, Let us go and sacrifice to our God.

⁹  Let heavier work be laid upon the men, that they may labor therein; and let them not regard lying words.
