Exodus 5:9 in Context — Exodus 5
7 Vous ne donnerez plus comme auparavant de la paille au peuple pour faire des briques; qu’ils aillent eux-mêmes se ramasser de la paille.
8 Vous leur imposerez néanmoins la quantité de briques qu’ils faisaient auparavant, vous n’en retrancherez rien; car ce sont des paresseux; voilà pourquoi ils crient, en disant: Allons offrir des sacrifices à notre Dieu!
9 Que l’on charge de travail ces gens, qu’ils s’en occupent, et ils ne prendront plus garde à des paroles de mensonge.
10 Les inspecteurs du peuple et les commissaires vinrent dire au peuple: Ainsi parle Pharaon: Je ne vous donne plus de paille;
11 allez vous-mêmes vous procurer de la paille où vous en trouverez, car l’on ne retranche rien de votre travail.
