¹And afterward Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters] and Aharon [Bright, Very High] went in, and told Par’oh [Pharaoh - Great House] , Thus says the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] , Let my people go, that they may hold a feast unto me in the wilderness.

²And Par’oh [Pharaoh - Great House] said, Who [is] the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , that I should obey his voice to let Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] go? I know not the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , neither will I let Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] go.

³And they said, The God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of the ‘Evri’ot [Hebrew] has met with us: let us go, we pray youi , three days’ journey into the desert, and sacrifice unto the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) our God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] ; lest he fall upon us with pestilence, or with the sword.

⁴And the king of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place] said unto them, For what reason do you2f , Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters] and Aharon [Bright, Very High] , let the people from their works? get you unto your burdens.

⁵And Par’oh [Pharaoh - Great House] said, Behold, the people of the land now [are] many, and you2f make them rest from their burdens.

⁶And Par’oh [Pharaoh - Great House] commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying,

⁷You2f shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them go and gather straw for themselves.

⁸And the tale of the bricks, which they did make heretofore, you2f shall lay upon them; you2f shall not diminish [ought] thereof: for they [be] idle; therefore they cry, saying, Let us go [and] sacrifice to our God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] .

⁹Let there more work be laid upon the men, that they may labour in it; and let them not regard vain words.

¹⁰And the taskmasters of the people went out, and their officers, and they spoke to the people, saying, Thus says Par’oh [Pharaoh - Great House] , I will not give you straw.

¹¹Go you2f , get you straw where you2f can find it: yet none of your work shall be diminished.

¹²So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place] to gather stubble instead of straw.

¹³And the taskmasters hasted [them] , saying, Fulfill your works, [your] daily tasks, as when there was straw.

¹⁴And the officers of the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] , which Par’oh’s [Pharaoh - Great House] taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, [and] demanded, For what reason have you2f not fulfilled your task in making brick both yesterday and today, as heretofore?

¹⁵Then the officers of the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] came and cried unto Par’oh [Pharaoh - Great House] , saying, For what reason do youi deal thus with youri servants?

¹⁶There is no straw given unto youi servants, and they say to us, Make brick: and, behold, youi servants [are] beaten; but the fault [is] in youi own people.

¹⁷But he said, You2f [are] idle, [you are] idle: therefore you2f say, Let us go [and] do sacrifice to the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) .

¹⁸Go therefore now, [and] work; for there shall no straw be given you, yet shall you2f deliver the tale of bricks.

¹⁹And the officers of the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] did see [that] they [were] in evil [case] , after it was said, You2f shall not diminish [ought] from your bricks of your daily task.

²⁰And they met Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters] and Aharon [Bright, Very High] , who stood in the way, as they came forth from Par’oh [Pharaoh - Great House] :

²¹And they said unto them, The Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) look upon you, and judge; because you2f have made our savour to be abhorred in the eyes of Par’oh [Pharaoh - Great House] , and in the eyes of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to slay us.

²²And Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters] returned unto the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , and said, Lord-Adonai (The Father) [Lord Above All Things] , wherefore have youi [so] evil entreated this people? why [is] it [that] youi have sent me?

²³For since I came to Par’oh [Pharaoh - Great House] to speak in youi name, he has done evil to this people; neither have youi delivered youi people at all.
