    7 "You are no longer to supply the people with straw for making bricks; let them go and gather their own straw.

    8 But require them to make the same number of bricks as before; don't reduce the quota. They are lazy; that is why they are crying out, 'Let us go and offer sacrifices to our God.'

    9 Make the work harder for the people so that they keep working and pay no attention to lies."
