5:1
וְאַחַ֗ר בָּ֚אוּ מֹשֶׁ֣ה וְאַהֲרֹ֔ן וַיֹּאמְר֖וּ אֶל־פַּרְעֹ֑ה כֹּֽה־אָמַ֤ר יְהֹוָה֙ אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל שַׁלַּח֙ אֶת־עַמִּ֔י וְיָחֹ֥גּוּ לִ֖י בַּמִּדְבָּֽר׃
καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα εἰσῆλθεν Μωυσῆς καὶ Ααρων πρὸς Φαραω καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ τάδε λέγει κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ ἐξαπόστειλον τὸν λαόν μου ἵνα μοι ἑορτάσωσιν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ
Post haec ingressi sunt Moyses et Aaron, et dixerunt Pharaoni : Haec dicit Dominus Deus Israël : Dimitte populum meum ut sacrificet mihi in deserto.

Afterward Moses and Aaron came, and said to Pharaoh, “This is what Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘Let my people go, that they may hold a feast to me in the wilderness.’”
5:2
וַיֹּ֣אמֶר פַּרְעֹ֔ה מִ֤י יְהֹוָה֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֶשְׁמַ֣ע בְּקֹל֔וֹ לְשַׁלַּ֖ח אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל לֹ֤א יָדַ֙עְתִּי֙ אֶת־יְהֹוָ֔ה וְגַ֥ם אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל לֹ֥א אֲשַׁלֵּֽחַ׃
καὶ εἶπεν Φαραω τίς ἐστιν οὗ εἰσακούσομαι τῆς φωνῆς αὐτοῦ ὥστε ἐξαποστεῖλαι τοὺς υἱοὺς Ισραηλ οὐκ οἶδα τὸν κύριον καὶ τὸν Ισραηλ οὐκ ἐξαποστέλλω
At ille respondit : Quis est Dominus, ut audiam vocem ejus, et dimittam Israël ? nescio Dominum, et Israël non dimittam.

Pharaoh said, “Who is Yahweh, that I should listen to his voice to let Israel go? I don’t know Yahweh, and moreover I will not let Israel go.”
5:3
וַיֹּ֣אמְר֔וּ אֱלֹהֵ֥י הָעִבְרִ֖ים נִקְרָ֣א עָלֵ֑ינוּ נֵ֣לְכָה נָּ֡א דֶּ֩רֶךְ֩ שְׁלֹ֨שֶׁת יָמִ֜ים בַּמִּדְבָּ֗ר וְנִזְבְּחָה֙ לַֽיהֹוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֵ֔ינוּ פֶּ֨ן־יִפְגָּעֵ֔נוּ בַּדֶּ֖בֶר א֥וֹ בֶחָֽרֶב׃
καὶ λέγουσιν αὐτῷ ὁ θεὸς τῶν Εβραίων προσκέκληται ἡμᾶς πορευσόμεθα οὖν ὁδὸν τριῶν ἡμερῶν εἰς τὴν ἔρημον ὅπως θύσωμεν τῷ θεῷ ἡμῶν μήποτε συναντήσῃ ἡμῖν θάνατος ἢ φόνος
Dixeruntque : Deus Hebraeorum vocavit nos, ut eamus viam trium dierum in solitudinem, et sacrificemus Domino Deo nostro : ne forte accidat nobis pestis aut gladius.

They said, “The God of the Hebrews has met with us. Please let us go three days’ journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to Yahweh, our God, lest he fall on us with pestilence, or with the sword.”
5:4
וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אֲלֵהֶם֙ מֶ֣לֶךְ מִצְרַ֔יִם לָ֚מָּה מֹשֶׁ֣ה וְאַהֲרֹ֔ן תַּפְרִ֥יעוּ אֶת־הָעָ֖ם מִֽמַּעֲשָׂ֑יו לְכ֖וּ לְסִבְלֹתֵיכֶֽם׃
καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ βασιλεὺς Αἰγύπτου ἵνα τί Μωυσῆ καὶ Ααρων διαστρέφετε τὸν λαόν μου ἀπὸ τῶν ἔργων ἀπέλθατε ἕκαστος ὑμῶν πρὸς τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ
Ait ad eos rex Aegypti : Quare Moyses et Aaron sollicitatis populum ab operibus suis ? ite ad onera vestra.
ወይቤሎሙ ፡ ንጉሠ ፡ ግብጽ ፡ ለምንት ፡ ለክሙ ፡ ሙሴ ፡ ወአሮን ፡ ትገፈትእዎ ፡ ለዝንቱ ፡ ሕዝብ ፡ እምግብሩ ፡ ሑሩ ፡ ውስተ ፡ ግብርክሙ ።
The king of Egypt said to them, “Why do you, Moses and Aaron, take the people from their work? Get back to your burdens!”
5:5
וַיֹּ֣אמֶר פַּרְעֹ֔ה הֵן־רַבִּ֥ים עַתָּ֖ה עַ֣ם הָאָ֑רֶץ וְהִשְׁבַּתֶּ֥ם אֹתָ֖ם מִסִּבְלֹתָֽם׃
καὶ εἶπεν Φαραω ἰδοὺ νῦν πολυπληθεῖ ὁ λαός μὴ οὖν καταπαύσωμεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ τῶν ἔργων
Dixitque Pharao : Multus est populus terrae : videtis quod turba succreverit : quanto magis si dederitis eis requiem ab operibus ?
ወይቤሎሙ ፡ ፈርዖን ፡ ናሁ ፡ ይእዜ ፡ ብዙኅ ፡ ወምሉእ ፡ አሕዛበ ፡ ምድር ፡ ቦሁ ፡ ዘናዐርፎሙ ፡ እምግብሮሙ ።
Pharaoh said, “Behold, the people of the land are now many, and you make them rest from their burdens.”
5:6
וַיְצַ֥ו פַּרְעֹ֖ה בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֑וּא אֶת־הַנֹּגְשִׂ֣ים בָּעָ֔ם וְאֶת־שֹׁטְרָ֖יו לֵאמֹֽר׃
συνέταξεν δὲ Φαραω τοῖς ἐργοδιώκταις τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ τοῖς γραμματεῦσιν λέγων
Praecepit ergo in die illo praefectis operum et exactoribus populi, dicens :
ወአዘዘ ፡ ፈርዖን ፡ ለነዳእተ ፡ ገባር ፡ ዘሕዝብ ፡ ወለጸሐፍት ፡ ወይቤሎሙ ።
The same day Pharaoh commanded the taskmasters of the people and their officers, saying,
5:7

Nequaquam ultra dabitis paleas populo ad conficiendos lateres, sicut prius : sed ipsi vadant, et colligant stipulas.

“You shall no longer give the people straw to make brick, as before. Let them go and gather straw for themselves.
5:8
וְאֶת־מַתְכֹּ֨נֶת הַלְּבֵנִ֜ים אֲשֶׁ֣ר הֵם֩ עֹשִׂ֨ים תְּמ֤וֹל שִׁלְשֹׁם֙ תָּשִׂ֣ימוּ עֲלֵיהֶ֔ם לֹ֥א תִגְרְע֖וּ מִמֶּ֑נּוּ כִּֽי־נִרְפִּ֣ים הֵ֔ם עַל־כֵּ֗ן הֵ֤ם צֹֽעֲקִים֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר נֵלְכָ֖ה נִזְבְּחָ֥ה לֵאלֹהֵֽינוּ׃

Et mensuram laterum, quam prius faciebant, imponetis super eos, nec minuetis quidquam : vacant enim, et idcirco vociferantur, dicentes : Eamus, et sacrificemus Deo nostro.

You shall require from them the number of the bricks which they made before. You shall not diminish anything of it, for they are idle. Therefore they cry, saying, ‘Let’s go and sacrifice to our God.’
5:9

Let heavier work be laid on the men, that they may labor in it. Don’t let them pay any attention to lying words.”
5:10

κατέσπευδον δὲ αὐτοὺς οἱ ἐργοδιῶκται καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς καὶ ἔλεγον πρὸς τὸν λαὸν λέγοντες τάδε λέγει Φαραω οὐκέτι δίδωμι ὑμῖν ἄχυρα
Igitur egressi praefecti operum et exactores ad populum, dixerunt : Sic dicit Pharao : Non do vobis paleas :
ወአጐጕእዎሙ ፡ ነዳእተ ፡ ሕዝብ ፡ ወጸሐፍት ፡ ወይቤልዎሙ ፡ ለሕዝብ ፡ ከመዝ ፡ ይቤ ፡ ፈርዖን ፡ ኢንሁበክሙ ፡ እንከ ፡ ኀሠረ ።
The taskmasters of the people went out with their officers, and they spoke to the people, saying, “This is what Pharaoh says: ‘I will not give you straw.
5:11

5:12

καὶ διεσπάρη ὁ λαὸς ἐν ὅλῃ Αἰγύπτῳ συναγαγεῖν καλάμην εἰς ἄχυρα
Dispersusque est populus per omnem terram Aegypti ad colligendas paleas.

So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Egypt to gather stubble for straw.
5:13

The taskmasters were urgent saying, “Fulfill your work quota daily, as when there was straw!”

Flagellatique sunt qui praeerant operibus filiorum Israël, ab exactoribus Pharaonis, dicentibus : Quare non impletis mensuram laterum sicut prius, nec heri, nec hodie ?
ወይ[ትቀሠ]ፉ ፡ ጸሐፍተ ፡ ነገዶሙ ፡ ለደቂቀ ፡ እስራኤል ፡ እለ ፡ ተሠይሙ ፡ ዲቤሆሙ ፡ በኀበ ፡ ዐበይተ ፡ ፈርዖን ፡ ወይቤልዎሙ ፡ ለምንት ፡ ኢትፌጽሙ ፡ ጥብዖተክሙ ፡ ግንፋለ ፡ በከመ ፡ ትካት ፡ ዮምኒ ።
The officers of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh’s taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, and were asked, “Why haven’t you fulfilled your quota both yesterday and today, in making brick as before?”
5:15

εἰσελθόντες δὲ οἱ γραμματεῖς τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ κατεβόησαν πρὸς Φαραω λέγοντες ἵνα τί οὕτως ποιεῖς τοῖς σοῖς οἰκέταις
Veneruntque praepositi filiorum Israël, et vociferati sunt ad Pharaonem dicentes : Cur ita agis contra servos tuos ?

Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried to Pharaoh, saying, “Why do you deal this way with your servants?
5:16

No straw is given to your servants, and they tell us, ‘Make brick!’ and behold, your servants are beaten; but the fault is in your own people.”
5:17

But Pharaoh said, “You are idle! You are idle! Therefore you say, ‘Let’s go and sacrifice to Yahweh.’
5:18
וְעַתָּה֙ לְכ֣וּ עִבְד֔וּ וְתֶ֖בֶן לֹא־יִנָּתֵ֣ן לָכֶ֑ם וְתֹ֥כֶן לְבֵנִ֖ים תִּתֵּֽנוּ׃

Ite ergo, et operamini : paleae non dabuntur vobis, et reddetis consuetum numerum laterum.

The officers of the children of Israel saw that they were in trouble when it was said, “You shall not diminish anything from your daily quota of bricks!”
5:20

Occurreruntque Moysi et Aaron, qui stabant ex adverso, egredientibus a Pharaone :
ወተራከብዎሙ ፡ ለሙሴ ፡ ወለአሮን ፡ እንዘ ፡ ይመጽኡ ፡ ፀአቶሙ ፡ እምኀበ ፡ ፈርዖን ።
They met Moses and Aaron, who stood along the way, as they came out from Pharaoh.
5:21

et dixerunt ad eos : Videat Dominus et judicet, quoniam foetere fecistis odorem nostrum coram Pharaone et servis ejus, et praebuistis ei gladium, ut occideret nos.

They said to them, “May Yahweh look at you and judge, because you have made us a stench to be abhorred in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to kill us!”
5:22
וַיָּ֧שׇׁב מֹשֶׁ֛ה אֶל־יְהֹוָ֖ה וַיֹּאמַ֑ר אֲדֹנָ֗י לָמָ֤ה הֲרֵעֹ֙תָה֙ לָעָ֣ם הַזֶּ֔ה לָ֥מָּה זֶּ֖ה שְׁלַחְתָּֽנִי׃

Moses returned to Yahweh, and said, “Lord, why have you brought trouble on this people? Why is it that you have sent me?
5:23
וּמֵאָ֞ז בָּ֤אתִי אֶל־פַּרְעֹה֙ לְדַבֵּ֣ר בִּשְׁמֶ֔ךָ הֵרַ֖ע לָעָ֣ם הַזֶּ֑ה וְהַצֵּ֥ל לֹא־הִצַּ֖לְתָּ אֶת־עַמֶּֽךָ׃
