Israel’s Labor Increased

5 And afterward Moses and Aaron came and said to Pharaoh, “^(A)This is what the Lord, the God of Israel says: ‘^(B)Let My people go so that they may celebrate a feast to Me in the wilderness.’” ² But Pharaoh said, “^(C)Who is the Lord that I should obey His voice to let Israel go? I do not know the Lord, and besides, ^(D)I will not let Israel go.”
