Exodus 5:19 CPDV

¹⁷  And he said: 'You are idle. And for this reason you say, 'We shall go and sacrifice to the Lord.'

¹⁸  Therefore, go and work. Straw will not be given to you, and you will return the customary number of bricks.'

¹⁹  And the first among the sons of Israel saw themselves in a crisis, because it was said to them, 'Nothing at all will be lessened from the bricks throughout each day.'

²⁰  And they met with Moses and Aaron, who stood opposite them as they departed from Pharaoh.

²¹  And they said to them: 'May the Lord see and judge, because you have caused our odor to become foul before Pharaoh and his servants, and you have provided him with a sword, in order to kill us.'
