Exodus 5:19-21
1599 Geneva Bible
19 Then the officers of the children of Israel [a]saw themselves in an evil case, because it was said, Ye shall diminish nothing of your brick, nor of every day’s task.
20 ¶ And they met Moses and Aaron, which stood in their way as they came out from Pharaoh.
21 To whom they said, The Lord look upon you and judge: for ye have made our savor to [b]stink before Pharaoh and before his servants, in that ye have [c]put a sword in their hand to slay us.
