## Pharaoh came close ##

The word Pharaoh here is used to refer to the entire Egyptian army. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])

## and they were terrified ##

AT: "and they were very afraid"

## Verses 11-12 ##

The Israelites used these rhetorical questions to express to Moses their frustration and fear of dying. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])

## "Is it because there were no graves in Egypt, that you have taken us away to die in the wilderness? ##

AT: "There are plenty of graveyards in Egypt for us to be buried in. You did not have to take us into the wilderness to die!"

## Why have you treated us like this, bringing us out of Egypt? ##

AT: "You have led us out of Egypt to be killed."

## We said to you, 'Leave us alone, so we can work for the Egyptians'? ##

AT: "We told you to leave us alone so we can continue to be slaves of the Egyptians."
