Numbers 14:1-4

Thomson(i) 1 Upon this, all the congregation, raising their voices, shouted aloud, and 2 the people wept that whole night. And all the Israelites murmured against Moses and Aaron; and the whole congregation said to them, that we had died in the land of Egypt, or even in this wilderness! 3 If we must die, why doth the Lord lead us into that land to fall in battle? Our wives and our children will be for a prey. Now therefore it is better for us to return to Egypt. 4 Then they said to one another, Let us appoint a leader, and return to Egypt.
