1After that, Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said, "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: 'Let My people go, so that they may hold a feast to Me in the wilderness.'"
“"...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.".”
“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.”
“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.”
“Afterward, Moses and Aaron went in and told Pharaoh, Thus says the Lord God of Israel, Let my people go that they may hold a feast to me in the wilderness.”
“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.”
2But Pharaoh replied, "Who is the LORD that I should obey His voice and let Israel go? I do not know the LORD, and I will not let Israel go."
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“and Pharaoh said, who is the Lord that I should obey his voice and let Israel go? I know not the Lord and neither will I let Israel go.”
“but Pharaoh said, who is the Lord, that I should obey his voice and let Israel go? I do not know the Lord, and besides I will not let Israel go.”
“And Pharaoh said, Who is the Lord that I should obey his voice and let Israel go? I do not know the Lord, nor will I let Israel go.”
3"The God of the Hebrews has met with us," they answered. "Please let us go on a three-day journey into the wilderness to sacrifice to the LORD our God, or He may strike us with plagues or with the sword."
“So they said, the God of the Hebrews has met with us. Please let us go three days journey into the desert and sacrifice to the Lord our God, lest he fall upon us with pestilence or with the sword.”
“"...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.".”
“And they said the God of the Hebrews hath met with us let us go. We pray thee for three days journey into the desert and sacrifice unto the Lord our God lest he fall upon us with pestilence or with a sword.”
“And they said, the God of the Hebrews hath met with us. Let us go, we pray, the three days journey into the desert and sacrifice unto the Lord our God, lest he fall upon us with pestilence or with the sword.”
“And they said the God of Hebrews has 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 sword.”
“So they said, The God of the Hebrews has met with us. Please let us go three days journey into the desert and sacrifice to the Lord our God, lest he fall upon us with pestilence or with sword. Then”
4But the king of Egypt said to them, "Moses and Aaron, why do you draw the people away from their work? Get back to your labor!"
“Then the king of Egypt said to them, Moses and Aaron, why do you take the people from their work, get back to your labor?”
“"...And the king of Egypt said unto them, Wherefore do ye Moses and Aaron let the people from their works get you under your burdens?”
“And the King of Egypt said unto them wherefore do ye Moses and Aaron let the people from their work get back to your burdens.”
“Then the king of Egypt said to them, Moses and Aaron, Why do you take the people from the work? Get back to their labor.”
5Pharaoh also said, "Look, the people of the land are now numerous, and you would be stopping them from their labor."
“And Pharaoh said, Behold, the people of the land now are many, and ye make them rest from their burdens.".”
“And Pharaoh said in verse five, look, the people of the land are many now and you make them rest from their labor.”
“And Pharaoh said behold the people of the land are now many and you are making them rest from their burdens.”
“And Pharaoh said, Look, the people of the land are many now, and you make them rush from their labor.”
6That same day Pharaoh commanded the taskmasters of the people and their foremen:
“And Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying,”
“So the same day, Pharaoh commanded the taskmasters of the people and their officers saying,”
“"...And Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying,”
7"You shall no longer supply the people with straw for making bricks. They must go and gather their own straw.
“you shall no longer give the people straw to make brick as before. Let them go and gather straw for themselves.”
“Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore let them go and gather straw for themselves.”
8But require of them the same quota of bricks as before; do not reduce it. For they are lazy; that is why they are crying out, 'Let us go and sacrifice to our God.'
“And you shall lay on them the quota of bricks which they made before. You shall not reduce it for they are idle. Therefore they cry out saying, let us go and sacrifice to our God.”
“And the tail of the bricks, which they did make heretofore, ye shall lay upon them, ye shall not diminish out thereof, for they be idle. Therefore they cry, saying, Let us go and sacrifice to our God.".”
9Make the work harder on the men so they will be occupied and pay no attention to these lies."
“Let there more work be laid upon the men, that they may labor therein. And let them not regard vain words.”
“Let more work be laid on the men that they may labor in it, and let them not regard false works.”
“Let there be more work laid upon the men that they may labor therein and let them not regard vain words.”
“let more work be laid upon the men that they may labor therein, and let them not regard vain words.”
“Let more work be laid upon the men that they may labor in it and let them not regard false words.”
10So the taskmasters and foremen of the people went out and said to them, "This is what Pharaoh says: 'I am no longer giving you straw.
“And the taskmasters of the people and their officers went out and spoke to the people saying, thus says Pharaoh, I will not give you straw.”
“The taskmasters of the people went out, and their officers, and they spake to the people, saying, Thus said Pharaoh, I will not give you straw.”
“And so the taskmasters of the people went out and the officers and they spake to the people saying thus saith the Pharaoh I will not give you straw.”
11Go and get your own straw wherever you can find it; but your workload will in no way be reduced.'"
“Go get yourselves straw where you can find it, yet none of your work will be reduced.”
“Go get yourself straw where you can find it. Yet none of your work will be reduced.”
12So the people scattered all over the land of Egypt to gather stubble for straw.
“So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Egypt to gather stubble instead of straw.”
“So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Egypt to gather the stubble instead of the straw.”
13The taskmasters kept pressing them, saying, "Fulfill your quota each day, just as you did when straw was provided."
“And so the taskmasters forced them to hurry saying fulfill your work, your daily quota as when there was straw,”
14Then the Israelite foremen, whom Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over the people, were beaten and asked, "Why have you not fulfilled your quota of bricks yesterday or today, as you did before?"
“the officers of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over them, were beaten and were asked, why have you not fulfilled your task in making brick both yesterday and today as before?”
“also the officers of the children of Israel whom Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over them were beaten and were asked, why have you not fulfilled your task in making brick both yesterday and today as before?”
15So the Israelite foremen went and appealed to Pharaoh: "Why are you treating your servants this way?
“then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried out to Pharaoh, saying, why are you dealing thus with your servants?”
“Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried out to Pharaoh saying, why are you dealing thus with your servants?”
“Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried unto Pharaoh, saying, Wherefore dealest thou thus with thy servants?”
16No straw has been given to your servants, yet we are told, 'Make bricks!' Look, your servants are being beaten, but the fault is with your own people."
“There is no straw given to your servants and they say to us, make brick. And indeed your servants are beaten, but the fault is in your own people.”
“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.”
17"You are slackers!" Pharaoh replied. "Slackers! That is why you keep saying, 'Let us go and sacrifice to the LORD.'
“But he said, Ye are idle, ye are idle. Therefore ye say, Let us go, and do sacrifice to the Lord.”
18Now get to work. You will be given no straw, yet you must deliver the full quota of bricks."
“Go therefore now, and work, for there shall no straw be given you, yet shall ye deliver the tale of brick.”
19The Israelite foremen realized they were in trouble when they were told, "You must not reduce your daily quota of bricks."
“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.”
“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 tasks.”
“And so the officers of the children of Israel saw that they were in trouble after it was said, you shall not reduce any bricks from your daily quota.”
“And verse 19, the officers of the children of Israel did see that they were in an evil case after it was said, ye shall not minish ought from the bricks of your daily task.”
20When they left Pharaoh, they confronted Moses and Aaron, who stood waiting to meet them.
“when they left Pharaoh's presence, they met Moses and Aaron as they were waiting for them.”
“And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood in the way, as they came forth from Pharaoh.”
“And so they met Moses and Aaron who stood in the way as they came forth from Pharaoh.”
“And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood in the way, and they came forth from Pharaoh.”
“they met they confronted Moses and Aaron who stood in the way as they came forth from Pharaoh.”
21"May the LORD look upon you and judge you," the foremen said, "for you have made us a stench before Pharaoh and his officials; you have placed in their hand a sword to kill us!"
“And they said to them, let the Lord look on you and judge because you have made us abhorrent in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants to put a sword in their hand to kill us.”
“And they said unto them the Lord look upon you and judge because you have made our savor 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.”
“And they said unto them, The Lord look upon you and judge, because ye have made our savor 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.”
“And they said unto them the Lord look upon you and judge because ye have made our safer 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.”
“and they said unto them, the Lord look upon you and judge, because you have made our savor to be abhorred in the eyes of Pharaoh, in the eyes of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to slay us.”
“And they said unto them, the Lord look upon you and judge, because you have made our savor to be abhorred in the eyes of Pharaoh, in the eyes of his servants to put a sword in their hands to slay us.”
22So Moses returned to the LORD and asked, "Lord, why have You brought trouble upon this people? Is this why You sent me?
“And Moses returned unto the Lord and said, Lord, wherefore hast thou so evil and treated this people? Why is it that thou hast sent me?”
“returned to the Lord and said, Lord, why have you brought trouble on this people? Why is it that you have sent me?”
“So Moses returned in verse 22 to the Lord and said, Lord, why have you brought trouble on this people? Why is it you have sent me?”
“and Moses returned unto the Lord and said, Lord, wherefore hast thou so evil and treated this people? Why is it thou hast sent me?”
“And Moses returned unto the Lord and said, Lord, wherefore hast thou so evilly entreated this people? Why is it thou hast sent me?”
“Moses returns to the Lord and said, Lord, why have you brought trouble on this people? Why is it that you have sent me?”
23Ever since I went to Pharaoh to speak in Your name, he has brought trouble on this people, and You have not delivered Your people in any way."
“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.”
“For since I came to Pharaoh to speak in your name, he has done evil to this people. Neither have you delivered your people at all.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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,”
