And all the congregation
lifted up
their voice,
and cried;
and the people
wept
that night.
And all the children
of Israel
murmured
against Moses
and against Aaron:
and the whole congregation
said
unto them, Would God
that we had died
in the land
of Egypt!
or would God
we had died
in this wilderness!

And wherefore hath the LORD
brought

And they said

Then Moses

fell
on their faces
before
all the assembly
of the congregation
of the children
of Israel.
And Joshua
the son
of Nun,
and Caleb
the son
of Jephunneh,
which were of them that searched
the land,
rent
their clothes:
And they spake
unto all the company
of the children
of Israel,
saying,
The land,
which we passed
through to search
it, is an exceeding
good
land.
If the LORD
delight
in us, then he will bring
us into this land,
and give
it us; a land
which floweth
with milk
and honey.
Only rebel
not ye against the LORD,
neither fear
ye the people
of the land;
for they are bread
for us: their defence
is departed
from them, and the LORD
is with us: fear
them not.

And the LORD

How long will this people

they believe
me, for all the signs
which I have shewed
among
them?
I will smite
them with the pestilence,
and disinherit

of thee a greater

than they.
And Moses
said
unto the LORD,
Then the Egyptians
shall hear
it, (for thou broughtest up
this people
in thy might
from among
them;)
And they will tell
it to the inhabitants
of this land:
for they have heard
that thou LORD

that thou LORD
art seen

Now if thou shalt kill
all this people
as one

then the nations
which have heard
the fame
of thee will speak,
saying,
Because the LORD
was not
able
to bring
this people
into the land
which he sware
unto them, therefore he hath slain
them in the wilderness.
And now, I beseech thee, let the power
of my Lord
be great,
according
as thou hast spoken,
saying,
The LORD
is longsuffering,
and of great
mercy,
forgiving
iniquity
and transgression,
and by no means
clearing
the guilty, visiting
the iniquity
of the fathers
upon the children
unto the third

And the LORD
said,
I have pardoned
according to thy word:
But as truly
as I live,
all the earth
shall be filled
with the glory
of the LORD.
Because all those men
which have seen
my glory,
and my miracles,
which I did
in Egypt
and in the wilderness,
and have tempted
me now these ten
times,
and have not hearkened
to my voice;
Surely they shall not
see
the land
which I sware
unto their fathers,
neither shall any of them that provoked
me see
it:

And they rose up early

Go not up,

For the Amalekites
