Exodus 5:12

¹⁰And the taskmasters and the accountants hastened them, and they spoke to the people, saying, Thus says Pharaoh, I will give you straw no longer.

¹¹Go ye, yourselves, get for yourselves straw whencesoever ye can find it, for nothing is diminished from your rate.

— Exodus 5:12 —

¹³And the taskmasters hastened them, saying, Fulfill your regular daily tasks, even as when straw was given you.

¹⁴And the accountants of the race of the children of Israel, who were set over them by the masters of Pharaoh, were scourged, and questioned, men saying, Why have ye not fulfilled your rates of brickwork as yesterday and the third day, today also?
