2 And there was no water for the congregation; and they assembled themselves against Moses and Aaron.

3 The people thus contended with Moses and spoke, saying, “If only we had perished when our brothers perished before the LORD!

4 “Why then have you brought the LORD’S assembly into this wilderness, for us and our beasts to die here?

5 “And why have you made us come up from Egypt, to bring us in to this wretched place? It is not a place of grain or figs or vines or pomegranates, nor is there water to drink.”
