Exodus 5:19-21

Modern English Version

¹⁹ The officers of the children of Israel saw that they were in trouble, after it was said, “You shall not diminish anything from your bricks of your daily task.” ²⁰ Then they met Moses and Aaron, who stood in the way, as they came forth from Pharaoh. ²¹ And they said to them, “May the Lord look on you and judge, because you have made our scent stink in the estimation of Pharaoh and in the estimation of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to slay us.”
