Exodus 5:21 in Context — Exodus 5
19 Então os supervisores dos filhos de Israel se viram em aflição, tendo lhes dito: Não se diminuirá nada de vossos tijolos, da tarefa de cada dia.
20 E encontrando a Moisés e a Arão, que estavam à vista deles quando saíam de Faraó,
21 Disseram-lhes: Olhe o SENHOR sobre vós, e julgue; pois nos fizestes repulsivos diante de Faraó e de seus servos, dando-lhes a espada nas mãos para que nos matem.
22 Então Moisés se voltou ao SENHOR, e disse: Senhor, por que afliges a este povo? para que me enviaste?
23 Porque desde que vim a Faraó para falar-lhe em teu nome, afligiu a este povo; e tu tampouco livraste a teu povo.
