Exodus 5:13 in Context — Exodus 5

11 Id vosotros, y recoged paja donde la hallareis; que nada se disminuirá de vuestra tarea.

12 Entonces el pueblo se derramó por toda la tierra de Egipto á coger rastrojo en lugar de paja.

13 Y los cuadrilleros los apremiaban, diciendo: Acabad vuestra obra, la tarea del día en su día, como cuando se os daba paja.

14 Y azotaban á los capataces de los hijos de Israel, que los cuadrilleros de Faraón habían puesto sobre ellos, diciendo: ¿Por qué no habéis cumplido vuestra tarea de ladrillo ni ayer ni hoy, como antes?

15 Y los capataces de los hijos de Israel vinieron á Faraón, y se quejaron á él, diciendo: ¿Por qué lo haces así con tus siervos?
