וְעַתָּ֗ה אָבִי֙ הֶעְמִ֤יס עֲלֵיכֶם֙ עֹ֣ל כָּבֵ֔ד וַ֣אֲנִ֣י אֹסִ֣יף עַ֠ל עֻלְּכֶ֡ם אָבִ֣י יִסַּ֣ר אֶ֣תְכֶם בַּ֠שּׁוֹטִ֡ים וַ֠אֲנִ֡י בָּעַקְרַבִּֽים׃
vʿatah ʾabiy heʿmiys ʿaleykem ʿol kabed vaʾaniy ʾosiyf ʿal ʿulkem ʾabiy yisar ʾetkem bashvoṭiym vaʾaniy baʿaqrabiym
King James Version (KJV)

For whereas my father put a heavy yoke upon you, I will put more to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.

Modern English

And now, whereas my father laid on you a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke. My father disciplined you with whips, but I will discipline you with scorpions.
