출애굽기 5:13의 Musar
וְהַנֹּגְשִׂ֖ים אָצִ֣ים לֵאמֹ֑ר כַּלּ֤וּ מַעֲשֵׂיכֶם֙ דְּבַר־י֣וֹם בְּיוֹמ֔וֹ כַּאֲשֶׁ֖ר בִּהְי֥וֹת הַתֶּֽבֶן׃
간역자들이 그들을 독촉하여 가로되 너희는 짚이 있을 때와 같이 당일 일을 당일에 마치라 하며
Shenei Luchot HaBerit
Complete your daily assignments as every day!" (Exodus 5,13). We learn that even here, when making bricks, no allowance was made for any shortfall ever. When someone has wasted time instead of serving the Lord, he cannot make up for it by saying he will henceforth serve G–d by day and by night. He should have done so in the first place. Waste is something that cannot be compensated for.
