Numbers 20:3-5

Jubilee Bible 2000

³ And the people contended with Moses and spoke, saying, Oh, that we had died when our brethren died before the LORD!

⁴ And why have ye caused the congregation of the LORD to come into this wilderness that we and our beasts should die here?

⁵ And why have ye made us to come up out of Egypt to bring us in unto this evil place? It is not a place to plant seed or of figs or of vines or of pomegranates; there is not even any water to drink.
