Numbers 14:1-9

1And the whole assembly lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.

2And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron; and the whole assembly said to them, Would that we had died in the land of Egypt! or in this wilderness would that we had died!

3And why is Jehovah bringing us to this land that we may fall by the sword, that our wives and our little ones may become a prey? Is it not better for us to return to Egypt?

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

5Then Moses and Aaron fell upon their faces before the whole congregation of the assembly of the children of Israel.

6And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, of them that searched out the land, rent their garments.

7And they spoke to the whole assembly of the children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it out, is a very, very good land.

8If Jehovah delight in us, he will bring us into this land, and give it us, a land that flows with milk and honey;

9only rebel not against Jehovah; and fear not the people of the land; for they shall be our food. Their defence is departed from them, and Jehovah is with us: fear them not.
