Exodus 5:21

Exodus 5:21. The Lord look upon you, and judge— See Gen 16:5 and, for the latter clause of the verse, Genesis 34:30.

Have made our savour to be abhorred— Or, have made us odious. The last clause of the verse, to put a sword in their hands to slay us, is proverbial; importing, "to give them a handle to destroy us."
