CLV(i)
13 And the exactors were rushing, saying: Finish your tasks, a day's tally in its day, just as when there was crushed straw given to you.
14 Then the superintendents of the sons of Israel were being smitten, whom Pharaoh's exactors had placed over them, saying: For what reason did you not finish your statutory number of bricks both yesterday and today as you did heretofore?
15 Then the superintendents of the sons of Israel entered and cried to Pharaoh, saying: Why are you doing thus to your servants?
16 Crushed straw is not being given to your servants. And of bricks, they are saying to us, Make them. And behold, your servants are being smitten, and your people are at fault.
