Exodus 1:11-14

Rotherham(i) 11 So they set over them chiefs of tribute, to the end they might humiliate them with their burdens,––and they built store–cities for Pharaoh, even Pithom and Raamses. 12 But, the more they were humiliating them, the more, were they multiplying, and, the more, were they breaking forth,––so they were filled with alarm, because of the sons of Israel. 13 And the Egyptians rigorously made the sons of Israel serve; 14 and embittered their lives with harsh service, in clay and in bricks, and in all manner of service in the field,––all their service, wherein they rigorously made them serve.
