15 Then the Israelite foremen complained to Pharaoh. They asked, |Why are you treating us this way? 16 We're given no straw, and yet we're told to make bricks. We're being beaten, but your men are at fault.| 17 |You're lazy! [Just plain] lazy!| Pharaoh answered. |That's why you keep saying, 'Let us go offer sacrifices to the LORD.' 18 Now get back to work! You won't be given any straw, but you must still make the same number of bricks.| Exodus 5:15-18, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
