Numbers 20:3-5

New Catholic Bible

³They argued with Moses and said, “Would that we would have died when our brothers fell before the Lord. ⁴Why have you brought the assembly of the Lord into this wilderness so that we die here, both we and our cattle? ⁵Why have you made us come out of Egypt to this evil place? It has no grain, or figs, or vines, or pomegranates. There is no water to drink!”
