埃及人严严地使以色列人做工，

埃及人严厉地强迫以色列人做工，

埃及人严厉地强迫以色列人做工，

于是，埃及人更残酷地奴役他们，

于是，埃及人严严地使以色列人作苦工。

埃及人嚴嚴地使以色列人做工，

埃及人嚴厲地強迫以色列人做工，

埃及人嚴厲地強迫以色列人做工，

於是，埃及人更殘酷地奴役他們，

於是，埃及人嚴嚴地使以色列人作苦工。

埃及人嚴嚴地使以色列人作工：

遂嚴督其役、

嚴督其役、

嚴督以色列人作苦役、

and worked them ruthlessly.

They made them work hard. They didn’t show them any pity.

So they ruthlessly made the people of Israel work as slaves

So the Egyptians worked the people of Israel without mercy.

They worked the Israelites ruthlessly

The Egyptians used violence to compel the sons of Israel to labor;

So the Egyptians made the children of Israel serve with rigor.

And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with rigor:

They worked the Israelites ruthlessly

And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with rigour:

and they made the Israelites serve rigorously.

The Egyptians ruthlessly made the children of Israel serve,

But as for you, the Lord took you and brought you out of the iron-smelting furnace, out of Egypt, to be the people of his inheritance, as you now are. (niv)
