Exodus 5:16-19

MLV(i) 16 There is no straw given to your servants and they say to us, Make brick. And behold, your servants are beaten, but the fault it in your own people.
17 But he said, You* are idle, you* are idle. Therefore you* say, Let us go and sacrifice to Jehovah. 18 Go therefore now and work, and no straw will be given you*, yet you* will deliver the number of bricks. 19 And the officers of the sons of Israel saw that they were in affliction, when it was said, You* will not diminish anything from your* bricks, your* daily tasks.
