10 And the exactors of the people, and its authorities, go out, and speak to the people, saying, “Thus said Pharaoh: I do not give you straw, 11 you—go, take straw for yourselves where you can find [it], for there is nothing diminished of your service.” 12 And the people are scattered over all the land of Egypt, to gather stubble for straw, 13 and the exactors are making haste, saying, “Complete your works, the matter of a day in its day, as when there is straw.” 14 And the authorities of the sons of Israel, whom the exactors of Pharaoh have placed over them, are beaten, saying, “Why have you not completed your portion in making brick as before, both yesterday and today?” Exodus 5:10-14, Literal Standard Version.
