| 1 | After these things Moses and Aaron went in, and said to Pharao: Thus saith the Lord God of Israel: Let my people go that they may sacrifice to me in the desert. | Post haec ingressi sunt Moyses et Aaron, et dixerunt Pharaoni: Haec dicit Dominus Deus Israël: Dimitte populum meum ut sacrificet mihi in deserto. | Καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα εἰσῆλθε Μωυσῆς καὶ Ἀαρὼν πρὸς Φαραὼ, καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ, τάδε λέγει Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς Ἰσραὴλ, ἐξαπόστειλον τὸν λαόν μου, ἵνα μοι ἑορτάσωσιν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ. |
| 2 | But he answered: Who is the Lord, that I should hear his voice, and let Israel go? I know not the Lord, neither will I let Israel go. | At ille respondit: Quis est Dominus, ut audiam vocem eius, et dimittam Israël? nescio Dominum, et Israël non dimittam. | Καὶ εἶπε Φαραὼ, τίς ἐστιν οὗ εἰσακούσομαι τῆς φωνῆς αὐτοῦ, ὥστε ἐξαποστεῖλαι τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραήλ; οὐκ οἶδα τὸν Κύριον, καὶ τὸν Ἰσραὴλ οὐκ ἐξαποστέλλω. |
| 3 | And they said: The God of the Hebrews hath called us, to go three days’ journey into the wilderness and to sacrifice to the Lord our God: lest a pestilence or the sword fall upon us. | Dixeruntque: Deus Hebraeorum vocavit nos, ut eamus viam trium dierum in solitudinem, et sacrificemus Domino Deo nostro: ne forte accidat nobis pestis aut gladius. | Καὶ λέγουσιν αὐτῷ, ὁ Θεὸς τῶν Ἐβραίων προσκέκληται ἡμᾶς· πορευσόμεθα οὖν ὁδὸν τριῶν ἡμερῶν εἰς τὴν ἔρημον, ὅπως θύσωμεν Κυρίῳ τῷ Θεῷ ἡμῶν, μή ποτε συναντήσῃ ἡμῖν θάνατος ἢ φόνος. |
| 4 | The king of Egypt said to them: Why do you Moses and Aaron draw off the people from their works? Get you gone to your burdens. | Ait ad eos rex Aegypti: Quare Moyses et Aaron sollicitatis populum ab operibus suis? ite ad onera vestra. | Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ βασιλεὺς Αἰγύπτου, ἱνατί Μωυσῆς καὶ Ἀαρών διαστρέφετε τὸν λαὸν ἀπὸ τῶν ἔργων; ἀπέλθατε ἕκαστος ὑμῶν πρὸς τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ. |
| 5 | And Pharao said: The people of the land is numerous: you see that the multitude is increased: how much more if you give them rest from their works? | Dixitque Pharao: Multus est populus terrae: videtis quod turba succreverit: quanto magis si dederitis eis requiem ab operibus? | Καὶ εἶπεν Φαραὼ, ἰδοὺ νῦν πολυπληθεῖ ὁ λαὸς, μὴ οὖν καταπαύσωμεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ τῶν ἔργων. |
| 6 | Therefore he commanded the same day the overseers of the works, and the taskmasters of the people, saying: | Praecepit ergo in die illo praefectis operum et exactoribus populi, dicens: | Συνέταξε δὲ Φαραὼ τοῖς ἐργοδιώκταις τοῦ λαοῦ, καὶ τοῖς γραμματεῦσι, λέγων, |
| 7 | You shall give straw no more to the people to make brick, as before: but let them go and gather straw. | Nequaquam ultra dabitis paleas populo ad conficiendos lateres, sicut prius: sed ipsi vadant, et colligant stipulas. | οὐκέτι προστεθήσεσθε διδόναι ἄχυρον τῷ λαῷ εἰς τὴν πλινθουργίαν, καθάπερ χθὲς καὶ τρίτην ἡμέραν· ἀλλ αὐτοὶ πορευέσθωσαν καὶ συναγαγέτωσαν ἑαυτοῖς ἄχυρα. |
| 8 | And you shall lay upon them the task of bricks, which they did before, neither shall you diminish any thing thereof: for they are idle, and therefore they cry, saying: Let us go and sacrifice to our God. | Et mensuram laterum, quam prius faciebant, imponetis super eos, nec minuetis quidquam: vacant enim, et idcirco vociferantur, dicentes: Eamus, et sacrificemus Deo nostro. | Καὶ τὴν σύνταξιν τῆς πλινθείας, ἧς αὐτοὶ ποιοῦσι, καθʼ ἑκάστην ἡμέραν ἐπιβαλεῖς αὐτοῖς· οὐκ ἀφελεῖς οὐδέν· σχολάζουσι γάρ· διὰ τοῦτο κεκράγασι, λέγοντες, ἐγερθῶμεν, καὶ θύσωμεν τῷ Θεῷ ἡμῶν. |
| 9 | Let them be oppressed, with works, and let them fulfill them: that they may not regard lying words. | Opprimantur operibus, et expleant ea: ut non acquiescant verbis mendacibus. | Βαρυνέσθω τὰ ἔργα τῶν ἀνθρώπων τούτων, καὶ μεριμνάτωσαν ταῦτα, καὶ μὴ μεριμνάτωσαν ἐν λόγοις κενοῖς. |
| 10 | And the overseers of the works and the taskmasters went out and said to the people: Thus saith Pharao, I allow you no straw: | Igitur egressi praefecti operum et exactores ad populum, dixerunt: Sic dicit Pharao: Non do vobis paleas: | Κατέσπευδον δὲ αὐτοὺς οἱ ἐργοδιῶκται καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς, καὶ ἔλεγον πρὸς τὸν λαὸν, λέγοντες, τάδε λέγει Φαραὼ, οὐκέτι δίδωμι ὑμῖν ἄχυρα. |
| 11 | Go, and gather it where you can find it: neither shall any thing of your work be diminished. | ite, et colligite sicubi invenire poteritis, nec minuetur quidquam de opere vestro. | Αὐτοὶ ὑμεῖς πορευόμενοι συλλέγετε ἑαυτοῖς ἄχυρα, ὅθεν ἐὰν εὕρητε· οὐ γὰρ ἀφαιρεῖται ἀπὸ τῆς συντάξεως ὑμῶν οὐθέν. |
| 12 | And the people was scattered through all the land of Egypt to gather straw. | Dispersusque est populus per omnem terram Aegypti ad colligendas paleas. | Καὶ διεσπάρη ὁ λαὸς ἐν ὅλῃ γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ συναγαγεῖν καλάμην εἰς ἄχυρα. |
| 13 | And the overseers of the works pressed them, saying: Fulfill your work every day as before you were wont to do when straw was given you. | Praefecti quoque operum instabant, dicentes: Complete opus vestrum quotidie, ut prius facere solebatis quando dabantur vobis paleae. | Οἱ δὲ ἐργοδιῶκται κατέσπευδον αὐτοὺς, λέγοντες, συντελεῖτε τὰ ἔργα τὰ καθήκοντα καθʼ ἡμέραν, καθάπερ καὶ ὅτε τὸ ἄχυρον ἐδίδοτο ὑμῖν. |
| 14 | And they that were over the works of the children of Israel were scourged by Pharao’s taskmasters, saying: Why have you not made up the task of bricks both yesterday and today as before? | Flagellatique sunt qui praeerant operibus filiorum Israël, ab exactoribus Pharaonis, dicentibus: Quare non impletis mensuram laterum sicut prius, nec heri, nec hodie? | Καὶ ἐμαστιγώθησαν οἱ γραμματεῖς τοῦ γένους τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ, οἱ κατασταθέντες ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς, ὑπὸ τῶν ἐπιστατῶν τοῦ Φαραὼ, λέγοντες, διατί οὐ συνετελέσατε τὰς συντάξεις ὑμῶν τῆς πλινθείας καθάπερ χθὲς καὶ τρίτην ἡμέραν, καὶ τὸ τῆς σήμερον; |
| 15 | And the officers of the children of Israel came, and cried out to Pharao, saying: Why dealest thou so with thy servants? | Veneruntque praepositi filiorum Israël, et vociferati sunt ad Pharaonem dicentes: Cur ita agis contra servos tuos? | Εἰσελθόντες δὲ οἱ γραμματεῖς τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ κατεβόησαν πρὸς Φαραὼ, λέγοντες, ἱνατί σὺ οὕτως ποιεῖς τοῖς σοῖς οἰκέταις; |
| 16 | Straw is not given us, and bricks are required of us as before: behold we thy servants are beaten with whips, and thy people is unjustly dealt withal. | paleae non dantur nobis, et lateres similiter imperantur: en famuli tui flagellis caedimur, et iniuste agitur contra populum tuum. | Ἄχυρον οὐ δίδοται τοῖς οἰκέταις σου, καὶ τὴν πλίνθον ἡμῖν λέγουσι ποιεῖν· καὶ ἰδοὺ οἱ παῖδές σου μεμαστίγωνται, ἀδικήσεις οὖν τὸν λαόν σου. |
| 17 | And he said: You are idle, and therefore you say: Let us go and sacrifice to the Lord. | Qui ait: Vacatis otio, et idcirco dicitis: Eamus, et sacrificemus Domino. | Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, σχολάζετε, σχολασταί ἐστε· διὰ τοῦτο λέγετε, πορευθῶμεν, θύσωμεν τῷ Θεῷ ἡμῶν. |
| 18 | Go therefore, and work: straw shall not be given you, and you shall deliver the accustomed number of bricks. | Ite ergo, et operamini: paleae non dabuntur vobis, et reddetis consuetum numerum laterum. | Νῦν οὖν πορευθέντες, ἐργάζεσθε· τὸ γὰρ ἄχυρον οὐ δοθήσεται ὑμῖν, καὶ τὴν σύνταξιν τῆς πλινθείας ἀποδώσετε. |
| 19 | And the officers of the children of Israel saw that they were in evil case, because it was said to them: There shall not a whit be diminished of the bricks for every day. | Videbantque se praepositi filiorum Israël in malo, eo quod diceretur eis: Non minuetur quidquam de lateribus per singulos dies. | Ἑώρων δὲ οἱ γραμματεῖς τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἑαυτοὺς ἐν κακοῖς, λέγοντες, οὐκ ἀπολείψετε τῆς πλινθείας τὸ καθῆκον τῇ ἡμέρᾳ. |
| 20 | And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood over against them as they came out from Pharao: | Occurreruntque Moysi et Aaron, qui stabant ex adverso, egredientibus a Pharaone: | Συνήντησαν δὲ Μωυσῇ καὶ Ἀαρὼν ἐρχομένοις εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτοῖς, ἐκπορευομένων αὐτῶν ἀπὸ Φαραώ, |
| 21 | And they said to them: The Lord see and judge, because you have made our savour to stink before Pharao and his servants, and you have given him a sword to kill us. | et dixerunt ad eos: Videat Dominus et iudicet, quoniam foetere fecistis odorem nostrum coram Pharaone et servis eius, et praebuistis ei gladium, ut occideret nos. | Καὶ εἶπαν αὐτοῖς, ἴδοι ὁ Θεὸς ὑμᾶς καὶ κρίναι, ὅτι ἐβδελύξατε τὴν ὀσμὴν ἡμῶν ἐναντίον Φαραὼ, καὶ ἐναντίον τῶν θεραπόντων αὐτοῦ, δοῦναι ῥομφαίαν εἰς τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ, ἀποκτεῖναι ἡμᾶς. |
| 22 | And Moses returned to the Lord, and said: Lord, why hast thou afflicted this people? wherefore hast thou sent me? | Reversusque est Moyses ad Dominum, et ait: Domine, cur afflixisti populum istum? quare misisti me? | Ἐπέστρεψε δὲ Μωυσῆς πρὸς Κύριον, καὶ εἶπε, δέομαι, Κύριε· τί ἐκάκωσας τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον; καὶ ἱνατί ἀπέσταλκάς με; |
| 23 | For since the time that I went in to Pharao to speak in thy name, he hath afflicted thy people: and thou hast not delivered them. | ex eo enim quo ingressus sum ad Pharaonem ut loquerer in nomine tuo, afflixit populum tuum: et non liberasti eos. | Καὶ ἀφʼ οὗ πεπόρευμαι πρὸς Φαραὼ, λαλῆσαι ἐπὶ τῷ σῷ ὀνόματι, ἐκάκωσε τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον· καὶ οὐκ ἐῤῥύσω τὸν λαόν σου. |
