Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast
אַתֶּ֗ם לְכ֨וּ קְח֤וּ לָכֶם֙ תֶּ֔בֶן מֵאֲשֶׁ֖ר תִּמְצָ֑אוּ
you_all go get to/for=you_all straw from,whatever find
The structure of this phrase serves as the opposing side of the contrast Pharaoh sets up in the last phrase. By explicitly using a pronoun with a command, he is emphasizing who will go get straw. If possible, translate this in a way that emphasizes the contrast between I and you. See the previous verse. Alternative translation: “Rather, it is you yourselves who must go get straw from wherever you might find it”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / youdual
אַתֶּ֗ם
you_all
Here, you is plural and refers to the Israelite people. If your language uses different forms of “you” depending on the number of people addressed, use a plural form here.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / rpronouns
אַתֶּ֗ם & לָכֶם֙
you_all & to/for=you_all
The repetition of you (as your) emphasizes that the Egyptians will no longer help the slaves. See the UST.

that/for/because/then/when not reduced in,work,your_all's thing
If this double negative would be misunderstood in your language, you could translate it as a positive statement. Alternate translation: “for you must continue to make the same number of bricks as before”
5:1-14 Pharaoh not only rejected Moses’ request to release the Hebrew slaves, he also retaliated by making their work harder. The arrival of the rescuer had actually made the situation worse.
OET (OET-LV) You_all go acquire to/for_you_all straw from_whatever you_all_will_find_[it] DOM there_[is]_not diminished in_work_your_all’s anything.
OET (OET-RV) so you’ll all have to go and get your own straw from wherever you can find it, because there’ll be no reduction to your quota.”
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
