2 All the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said to them, |Would that we had died in the land of Egypt, or would that we had died in this wilderness.

3 Why does the LORD bring us to this land, to fall by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will be a prey: wouldn't it be better for us to return into Egypt?|

4 And they said to one another, |Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.|
